More and more sub-studios appear. With the emergence of small studios, such as super orangutans, rotating studios and boxing halls, their quality is higher and their benefits to instructors are better. Of course, they will be more competitive than the gym. The turnover rate is too low; The public's first impression of the gym is the treadmill, equipment and swimming pool; Pay little attention to how many bicycles you have, and rarely use bicycles actually; And the application scenario is also very low! Few coaches arrange for students to ride bicycles. After all, compared with the treadmill, it is active rather than passive.
Probably because there are a lot of treadmills, there are far fewer people who like cycling than treadmills. The situation is that the gym is relatively small, and the venue area is limited. After planning the equipment area, yoga hall, ballroom and other areas, there is no place to set up spinning bikes. The possible situation is that spinning is a gradual, rhythmic and musical group training, which needs to be equipped with coaches. However, in this respect, it is usually a coach to multiple clients, and there is no separate coaching fee, so it is a loss-making business.
Spinning bike can be used as a way to attract customers, but it also has many disadvantages.
1, occupying space and wasting resources.
Considering the cost, the spinning room will only be used at a specific time every day, and the utilization rate is low and cannot be used for other purposes. Most of them are actually empty. Moreover, if the gym itself is limited, the bicycle room will greatly affect the distribution density of people in the gym. Unless there is a regular bicycle instructor in a large gym, you must make an appointment with a bicycle instructor in a small or commercial gym. It is not excluded that the tutor can't attend class or the coach has something to do.
2. Not profitable
Spinning, unlike private education or Pilates, can sell classes and can't bring extra marketing to the gym. Rotation needs atmosphere, but it is still noisy, just like not all squares are suitable for square dancing. The biggest source of income for gyms is still private courses. On the whole, some gyms were excluded at the beginning of design because the spinning bike in the gym is not just needed, with large investment and low income.
If you like spinning, you should mainly like the atmosphere. If you practice at home, the effect may not be so good. If you really like it and have plenty of time, you can also consider going to a gym farther away. It can take more than ten minutes on the road, but it can meet all your needs. It should still be cost-effective.
First of all, to sum up, the spinning class in the gym is centered on the coach, while the home textile class is centered on the students. Gym spinning course is basically a group course mode, and the degree of freedom in course selection is extremely low, which basically belongs to "being taught". In class, the coach drives all the students to do the previous movements and asks them to adjust their resistance. All the students pedaled their bicycles at the same time to the deafening music. The whole experience is like riding a bike and leading a dance. The advantage of this model is that the atmosphere is warm, and students are easily infected, so as to complete the training professionally.
However, the biggest drawback of this course is that it can't take care of the differences of different students' sports abilities in rhythm and intensity, which leads to the boredom of the great god students, while the novice students can't keep up at all. Only some students whose sports abilities match the course will achieve the expected results. This process is often accompanied by physical discomfort and psychological discomfort.
Most of the home textile courses are basically online courses through the bicycle supporting app. In the gym, there are not only on-site group classes similar to cycling classes, but also optional recording and broadcasting classes or music classes (there are training classes for animation and explanation of music with cards) suitable for your sports ability. This can avoid the disadvantages of some gym spinning lessons and give users more choices and freedom to carry out training that suits them. But correspondingly, the persistence and companionship of personal exercise at home are relatively weak.
However, in this intelligent era, the ideal spinning bike should enable all students to obtain "thousands of people and thousands of faces" personalized resistance dynamic adjustment in the same group training class, realize differentiated training for users with different sports abilities, ensure that every user in group training achieves the same training effect, and meet the fitness needs of all people such as shaping, burning fat and slimming. Of course, only a few bicycle brands in the world can do this at present. But fortunately, there is also a bicycle brand in China that has done it, which is the one I rode.
Before each spinning activity, you must take some time to do enough warm-up exercises, such as jogging on the treadmill for a while, or jumping aerobics, and then participate when your body starts to get excited. Because the body that has been almost dormant for a long time can't adapt to the sudden increase of load and strength, it is easy to get injured before the bones and muscles stretch. Check whether all components are safe before getting on the bus, and pay attention to adjusting the position after getting on the bus. The most important thing is to fasten the safety lock on the pedal to avoid the danger of bumping when leaving at high speed.
During riding, the soles of your feet should always be parallel to the ground. Breathing on the spinning bike is very important, so you should learn abdominal breathing. During abdominal breathing, the tension and relaxation of abdominal muscles occur alternately, which makes the capillaries in local muscles contract and relax alternately, accelerates blood circulation, expands the supply of oxygen, is also conducive to the discharge of metabolites, plays a role in regulating and promoting the whole body organs and tissues, and can greatly enhance lung function.
In terms of clothing, it is best to wear professional spinning clothes, and cotton sportswear with good elasticity can also be substituted. Sports shoes with shoelaces are the best choice, because they can firmly fix the feet on the pedals and prevent them from slipping off. Spinning is still the most popular fitness program in today's gym. It allows you to carry out rhythmic and step-by-step heavy-load aerobic exercise with explosive music, gorgeous lighting, coach's password and the encouragement and drive of participating partners, so that your heart and lung functions and muscles in many parts can be fully exercised.
