25 Instructor Educat ion Cadence, Resistance And Intensity : Understanding the relationship between cadence, resistance and intensity is the key to Spinning® program classes that meet training goals. By using the Spinner® computer, you will become more proficient at incre asing power, gaining efficient leg speed and mastering the relationship bet[...]

26 Energy Zones™ : The Spinning Energy Zones are the foundation of heart rate training in the Spinning® program. Each Energy Zone ™ is a type of training based on exercise intensity (indicated by heart rate). Energy Zone ™ Intensity Range Purpose covery 50% to 65% of MHR Relaxation and energy accumulation. Endurance 65% to 75% of MHR Improve[...]

27 CADENCE FUNDAMENTALS What Is Cadence? Cadence is defined as the number of times the pedals revolve per minute, also known as RPM f revolutions per minute. The safest, most efficient and most realistic cadences are 80 – 110 RPM for a flat road and 60 – 80 RPM for a hill. These ranges are based on studying the cadences of elite cyclists as wel[...]

28 It Good To Pedal Faster Than 110 RPM ? Those who have a high power to resistance ratio may occasionally attain these leg speeds. This means they have the ability to overcome resistance through strength and speed. The rare, highly skilled Spinning® enthusiast (often cyclists) who have mastered a smooth pedal stroke and who understand the dynamic[...]

29 It’s not dangerous to exceed 80 RPM on a hill, but for extended periods it will likely raise the rider’s intensity too high and won’t achieve the strength benefits of climbing. It is all right t o exceed 80 RPM for brief periods, such as in a standing climb for the last 10 - 20 seconds. The rider intensity will increase dramatically, so ma[...]

30 ips For Choosing An Appropriate Cadence And Resistance : • Warm - Up. The first ten minutes of a Spinning ride are critica l for establishing proper cadence. With no resistance during warm - up, one may tend to pedal too quickly thus raising the heart rates prematurely. During the warm - up, it’s important to work on cadence by keeping inten[...]

31 Relationship B etween Cadence And Resistance : Cadence, resistance and intensity are interrelated. For any given intensity, there is a correlated cadence and resistance combination. In other words, if one know s the intensity (heart rate) he/she to exercise at, and s elect s the cadence at which to ride, he/she can find the right resistance to g[...]

32 4. Find a tough climb without exceeding 85% MHR . Continue adding resistance until one feel s the need to rise o ut of the saddle in a standing climb. (Outdoors, cyclists stand on a climb when the road becomes steeper.) Maintain a cadence of 70 – 75 RPM . Play with these three variables, finding the right combination to meet the parameters. If[...]

33 Next, add a little hill while maintaining the same intensity. Remain seated and ride a progressively steeper hill by gradually adding resistance every 3 - 4 minutes. Try to maintain the same intensity of 80%. In order to do so, one will have to slow his/her legs down as the hill becomes steeper. Ride at 80, 75, 70, 65 and 60 RPM . If one cannot [...]

34 Ladders : Ladders are a progressive increase or decrease in one of the following variables: cadence, resistance or intensity. This drill is best employed using seated or standing flats and seated or standing climbs. Jumps do not work well for ladders. One can use a combination of the following drills in any profile: Constant cadence with increas[...]

35 Next, try this over 60 seconds, raising the cadence 2 RPM every 4 seconds. Seated Climbs: Climb at 60 RPM with enough resistance to bring the intensity to 75%. Gradually increase the cadence to 80 RPM over 60 seconds . If possible, use 85% MHR as a ceiling. One may have to try this several times to find a hill that allows him/her to stay within [...]

37 Spinning® Ride Profile : This Strength Energy Zone™ ride takes a rider on three hills, each one a little longer, steeper and therefore more difficult. For the first hill, attempt to keep the heart rate at 80% max. Allow heart rate to rise to 85% with the second and third hills. Elapsed Time Duration Movement/C adence Intensity Technique 5:00 [...]
