Spinning® Introduces The Innovative Power-Based Training Program, Spinpower™
Spinning brings professional development opportunities to instructors and Official Spinning facilities with Spinpower, the new power-based training program for indoor cycling
LOS ANGELES, May 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- As the most recognized name in indoor cycling, Spinning® is once again on the cutting edge of technology and comprehensive education. With the launch of proven strain-gauge power meter technology, Spinning unleashes the power of innovation and knowledge with the Spinner® Blade ION and the Spinpower™ Instructor Certification.
Power meter innovation has proven effective in improving training efficiency, enhancing fitness and maximizing performance results for cyclists of all levels. By incorporating power-based training within the Spinning program, Official Spinning Facilities will be able to provide members with incredible benefits, including science-based training principles for individual weight loss, fitness and performance goals; individualized training programs using the Personal Spinning Threshold (PST) Test and Spinpower Zones; high-quality, power-oriented Spinning classes built around effective, individualized program design and post-ride data analysis. Furthermore, instructors will be able to measure, track, evaluate and maximize progress like never before.
"Spinpower will bring members to the next level, by mastering the science of health, fitness and performance, utilizing the same strain-gauge power meter technology that was once available only to elite level cyclists," says Spinpower Program Director and Power Specialist Master Instructor, Angie Sturtevant. "The Spinner Blade ION offers the only true and precise measurement of the real effort a rider puts in, and constantly displays the biometric feedback during the ride. This data keeps riders excited about exercise and motivates them to do the work to achieve their goals. Spinpower also allows riders to see an accurate display of the calories they've burned, which pushes riders to achieve their goals of weight loss, fitness or improved cycling performance."
Additionally, program participants can become part of a team of over 200,000 certified Spinning instructors and over 35,000 facilities and studios that are dedicated to delivering a life-changing program to fitness enthusiasts and cyclists worldwide.
"We have worked diligently with Star Trac® over the past several years on perfecting the Spinner Blade ION and we are excited to be launching the most advanced power bike in the industry," says CEO of Mad Dogg Athletics, Inc., John Baudhuin. "Instead of being the first to offer power technology, we wanted to be the best. This incredible indoor cycling bike has been mastered to track real power, unlike any other indoor cycling bike on the market. And in combination with Spinpower education, we are taking the Spinning program to the next level."
