What’s Spin Sculpt?

To keep clients from hitting workout plateaus, she devised Spin Sculpt, a combination of strength training and Spin class.

Unlike other fusion classes, Spin Sculpt allows people to perfect their form by keeping the strength training off the bike. Other workout programs encourage people to lift weights while on the bike, but Cat noticed that this prevented people from performing proper form. Poor form also increased risk of injury and decreased efficiency. So, by keeping folks off the bike, Spin Sculpt let people to safely perform shoulder presses or triceps kickbacks with complete range.

What Are the Benefits of a Spin Fusion Class?
