Wow! What an amazing Ride with Tommy! This morning's Sexy Spin became a Sexy Superhero Spin as Crunch once again exhibited how it is THE place where fitness meets entertainment! As the movie, The Avengers: Age Of Ultron, opens tonight in late night screenings across the country, Crunch celebrates the superheroes that we encounter everyday...our members, trainers and instructors! Crunch is one of those rare institutions where amazing individuals come together to make a positive difference. Members often want to make a difference in their lives. Trainers and instructors bring their amazing skills and talents to the table to help our members reach their goals and make that positive difference everyday! I believe that everyone who wants to improve their life as well as the lives of others is a superhero! For every positive change that a member makes in both their mental and physical health and well-being, the world becomes a better place. For every person that makes their life healthier and happier, a contribution is made to the world to help make it collectively happier and healthier! This statement may seem grandiose and over-hyped, but I don't think so. So often, we encounter so many things in our lives, in our daily routines, that can bring a person down, frown or feel sad or mad. This happens way too often and way too easy. What a great thing to do to try to help reduce or eliminate these negative instances! In my classes, I try to stress the ability to create a positive energy that can result in a positive change. Yes, it takes hard work, but it can be done. And then I often remind riders as they leave class that not only have they accomplished something extraordinary in class, but that they can carry that positive energy with them all day as they face the "real world" outside of the spinning room doors. In class, we create challenges and obstacles that we overcome, that makes us stronger, that moves us closer to realizing our personal goals. This is such a positive experience! So when we encounter things that may be a little less than postive in the "real world", we can remember what we were able to do in class, the challenges and obstacles that we overcame, the positive energy that we created, the changes and goals that we reached, the expectations that we exceeded. Yes, all of this can happen in a simple spin class. Every little bit can make a big difference. Every positive change can create more positive changes. Every accomplishment builds confidence, hope and strength. We are all amazing. We can all contribute so much. We are all superheroes!

#totalrequestride. Not to be confused with Carson Daly's former hit show, Total Request Live. But just as important and influential, no doubt! Each week, we start class off with some fun and high-energy videos to help you get your heart rate up. To also help you get the edges of your mouth up...into a smile! For all the talk about intensity, challenges, hard work and pain, I still like to create a Ride that allows you to have fun! Who said that it was impossible to get the changes in your body that you work so hard for without smiling, laughing and having fun while doing it?!?! Nobody! So come join us every Wednesday at 9:30am at Crunch Fitness - Sunset. Get to class. Work hard. Make positive changes. Have fun! Tweet your favorite song or video to @crunchgym followed by the hashtage #totalrequestride. The top 3 videos each week will be played in Crunches across the country. (And if you Ride with me here at Crunch Fitness - Sunset, then also include #ridewithtommy or retweet your requests to @ridewithtommy so that I can be sure to include your requests even if it doesn't make it into the national top 3!) Sound like fun? Then let's just do it! See you next Wednesday! In good health, tommy

The new Threshold Ride. We have been offering this new class here at Crunch Fitness - Sunset for only 3 months. Already, I have received so many comments on how the class has transformed the way people Ride and workout. So many people have stopped me and told me how the Threshold Ride really makes them work harder, how seeing the different colors of the percentage zones as well as the numbers themselves provides extra motivation, inspiration and knowledge to commit and focus and truly feel the work AND the results! And that's really what it is all about. No matter how much I, as the instructor, stress proper form, resistance levels, various paces, fun and high energy music, it really boils down to leaving class knowing that you did the best you could and obtained at least some of the results that you entered the class hoping to achieve. So when I see you next time in class, remember to enter the room with goals, a positive attitude and the willingness to grow in both strength and knowledge both personally and as part of a group in a class that provides cutting edge technology and an even better way to monitor your own fitness, workouts and changes! In good health! tommy

Well, we didn't have the video capacity working in class yesterday morning, but we still had a great Ride! Thanks to everyone who made it to class and was a part of 45 minutes of hard work, intensity, commitment, sweat and fun! It takes commitment to make a change. To work toward something that you truly want to achieve. In class, I encourage that commitment. Commitment to proper form. Commitment to the work. Commitment to the workout as I have designed it so that you get the most out of everything that you do. So that you create a positive energy that fills up the room. That pushes and challenges you. That encourages and supports the people around you. So that everyone has the best Ride possible. The most efficient Ride. The most effective Ride. The most productive. The safest. Committing to what I call the three basics: 1) proper form, 2) pace and 3) resistance. Of those 3, form is the most important. As you commit to the best form possible, you insure yourself of a Ride where every little thing you do can make a big difference. A Ride that will move you closer to obtaining results. A Ride that will allow you to work efficiently. In other words, proper form will allow you to work safely while working as hard as you can instead of riding with improper form which can lead to injury immediately or over a period of time. I spend a lot of time talking about proper form and the need to commit to form, pace and resistance. And I want you to work as intensely as you can, no, more than you thought you could! More than you thought possible! And I want you to have fun! Yes, have fun while working so hard that the time in class flies by! So that you leave class confident that you did all that you could to the best of your ability. And that you definitely made a change. A positive change. A change in your mental and physical well-being. In the way you think of yourself. In the way that you see the world around you. Wow. All of that can happen in a spin class? Yes it can. So let's do it! Come join me in the Ride with Tommy! And be sure to check out the track list for this morning's Sexy Spin as well! In good health!
