I hope you all had a great class and that you enjoyed the music and the workout built into the class. As I always say, I provide the framework within which you can commit or the path upon which you can ride. That is a big part of class, yes, but ultimately, how much you commit to that workout, how much you actually push and challenge yourself is up to you. Therefore, how much you actually get out of the workout, how much closer you get to actually reaching your goals, depends a great deal on you. The instructor plays a very important, even vital, part of class, but it is the combination of the instructor's role and the level to which the rider commits that actually helps that rider realize a goal. Just as a trainer can help push and motivate the trainee, just as a teacher can nurture and challenge a pupil, just as a leader can instill confidence and inspire greatness among the people, an instructor can and should be able to create and provide the environment in which every one in class can succeed in reaching one's goals or even exceed one's expectations! I've also been known to say that in a group fitness class, or specifically an indoor cycling class, that to begin with, all you really have to do is show up and get on a bike. The instructor's ability, the music, and the energy provided by the others in class should propel and elevate you to obtain a Ride that will make a big difference. I stand by this statement. All of this should come together to create an almost fool-proof process to achieve positive change. And for many, that is enough. However, for those of you that want to take your workout to the next level, to exceed your expectations, to reach and go beyond your goals, the final and also vitally important part is you, your commitment, your focus, your energy, your desire to make a positive change, a positive difference. And each of you can do it. I hope to be able to help you do it. I am and will continue to be honored to be there to help you do it. So thank you to all that have entrusted me to help currently and in the past. I am here. With my framework. With a path. I hope you choose to follow it, to be a vital part of it. I think we can make a big difference! I hope to see you in class soon! In good health, tommy
