PHASE 1 RIDE I

Welcome back!
I hope everyone had a great weekend! I completed the Reaction Cycling certification and had a blast -
the instructor, Linda Buchbinder, was a Master Spinning instructor who had made the jump to this other program
(affiliated with Schwinn and Ballys), and her enthusiasm and passion for her job were infectious. I'm excited
to incorporate what I learned into future rides!
This profile, based on ride C of Phase 1/Weeks 4-6 of the Spinning Instructor Training Schedule, is one of the more
mentally and physically challenging hours I have spent on a bike. I would recommend it only for classes where
you know the students are ready and willing to focus and walk through some discomfort in order to get stronger.
That said, I feel that riding and teaching it has made me stronger and forced me to innovate in terms of language
and enthusiasm! Please let me know how you fare!
