And the fun continues! The fun AND the work! That's right, have fun while doing the work to make a difference. To make a positive change. A change in the way you workout. The way you look at your workouts. The way you look at your body. Your mindset. Never settle. Decide for yourself that it is so very worth it to get up, get out and workout! And have fun while you do it! Ride with Tommy! The music is almost always music that you know. From today's biggest and newest hits to the best songs from the past for the best workouts today! But don't worry. The fun does not take away from the intensity. If you make the decision to get to class and really make a difference, if you commit to the workout, the Ride, then you will indeed get stronger, burn more calories and ultimately reach a higher level of overall cardiovascular fitness! This morning's class featured new music from Jennifer Lopez @jlo, Justin Timberlake @jtimberlake, Meghan Trainor @Meghan_Trainor and Nick Jonas @nickjonas. We started off with a couple of videos to up the fun and get everyone warmed up and ready. J-Lo's new "Ain't Your Mama" and Justin's new "Can't Fight The Feeling!" were perfect for that! Then, after a remix of Zayn's "Pillowtalk", we flashed back to some oldies including a birthday visit to Janet Jackson's "Someone To Call My Lover" for her 50th birthday this past Monday and the Notorious B.I.G.'s "Hypnotize" for what would have been his 44th birthday this upcoming Saturday. Finally, winding up the cool down with a song that I couldn't help be reminded by when listening to Justin's "Can't Stop The Feeling": the oldie REO Speedwagon's "Can't Fight This Feeling". Is that just me? Oh well, the Ride this morning was not only a lot of fun, I was so proud of all that everyone accomplished. The dedication with which everyone worked. The positive changes that everyone made. I think we strengthened everyones muscles, especially the most important muscle: the heart. To quote that great masterpiece of art and the great philosopher that we all know and revere, I think everyone's "heart grew three sizes" today! @TheDrSeussQuote Thanks to everyone for being a part of this morning's amazing experience! I'll see you next time, but until then, in good health! tommy!

New and fun music and videos for this week's #totalrequestride @crunchgym on Sunset! This morning saw J-Lo warm us up with her new empowering anthem, "Ain't Your Mama"! Then the soon-to-be song of the summer, Justin Timberlake led us into our first medium-level resistance challenge with his recent release, "Can't Stop The Feeling". And because she celebrated her 50th birthday this past Monday and just announced that she is pregnant with her first child, I wanted to include one of my favorites, Janet Jackson, as we climbed to her hit song, "If". The final video was a cool down: "Pillow Talk" by Zayn, formerly of the group, One Direction. What an amazing class! Thanks to all that showed up! Thanks to everyone for their energy and their commitment to improving their health and fitness level. For adding better health and more happiness into their lives. For adding a few years on to their lives. Yes, all that can happen in a Ride with Tommy! Haven't tried a class yet? Haven't been to one in a while? Make plans to be there tomorrow morning for Sexy Spin at 7:00am at Crunch Fitness on Sunset! Until then, in good health, tommy!

@prince @guybaruch #sexyspin Life is so many things. It is amazing. It is difficult. It is a celebration. It is love. It is short. We are reminded so many times about the many facets of life that sometimes we take to the fullest advantage and other times we let slip by without a second thought. The past couple of weeks for me has been a reminder of so many things. While I am completely grateful for my amazing family and life that we have created and are able to share everyday, I was especially reminded of the importance of friends, focusing on and sharing your talents, and working to improve your health and well-being. The world lost an amazing talent in the passing of Prince. I have been playing his songs in everyone of my classes for the past week. His surprising death is a reminder that life is short and that we should live every moment to the fullest. Also this week, one of my best friends, fellow @crunchgym instructors, and one of my favorite people on the Earth, Guy Baruch, finally released a new single, "Singing". Guy is such a huge talent. In the past few years, he has dedicated his life to helping other artists develop their talents. Well, for the first time in 7 years, he released a new single where he is once again sharing his unbelievable, God-given talent with the world. I was honored to play it in class this past week. And he is allowing everyone to download it for free at https://soundcloud.com/templebase/guy-singing-final4-2016. All he is asking is that you consider a donation to his fundraising efforts for this year's California AIDS/LifeCycle Ride to End AIDS (http://www.tofighthiv.org/site/TR?px=3215094&fr_id=1880&pg=personal) How amazing is that?!?! And each of us has such an important and vital contribution to the world. Don't hide it! Don't be afraid to share it! As I say all the time in my classes, everyone one of us in each class is no longer an individual, alone, on our own. We are in a group fitness class and therefore part of a group. And together, as each one of us contributes, we can create such positive energy that allows each and everyone of us to push ourselves further than we thought we were going to. Further than we did the last time. Further than we thought we could! That positive energy. That contribution that each of us can make. That change that everyone of us can make in our workouts. In our bodies. In our minds. In our thoughts and views of ourselves and our places in the world. Can lead to so much more outside of the spin room. It is so easy to discount or dismiss what we do. Don't. Don't let the importance of your efforts to improve, strengthen, change be minimized in any way. It all starts somewhere. Why not here? Why not in a spin class? Why not in the Ride with Tommy! Come to class! Celebrate life! Celebrate your life! Celebrate your talents! Celebrate your efforts! It is all so worth it. Remember that! I hope to see you in class soon! Until then, in good health... tommy

The world lost an amazing talent in the passing of Prince. I have been playing his songs in everyone of my classes for the past week. His surprising death is a reminder that life is short and that we should live every moment to the fullest. Also this week, one of my best friends, fellow @crunchgym instructors, and one of my favorite people on the Earth, Guy Baruch, finally released a new single, "Singing". Guy is such a huge talent. In the past few years, he has dedicated his life to helping other artists develop their talents. Well, for the first time in 7 years, he released a new single where he is once again sharing his unbelievable, God-given talent with the world. I was honored to play it in class this past week. And he is allowing everyone to download it for free at https://soundcloud.com/templebase/guy-singing-final4-2016. All he is asking is that you consider a donation to his fundraising efforts for this year's California AIDS/LifeCycle Ride to End AIDS (http://www.tofighthiv.org/site/TR?px=3215094&fr_id=1880&pg=personal) How amazing is that?!?! And each of us has such an important and vital contribution to the world. Don't hide it! Don't be afraid to share it! As I say all the time in my classes, everyone one of us in each class is no longer an individual, alone, on our own. We are in a group fitness class and therefore part of a group. And together, as each one of us contributes, we can create such positive energy that allows each and everyone of us to push ourselves further than we thought we were going to. Further than we did the last time. Further than we thought we could! That positive energy. That contribution that each of us can make. That change that everyone of us can make in our workouts. In our bodies. In our minds. In our thoughts and views of ourselves and our places in the world. Can lead to so much more outside of the spin room. It is so easy to discount or dismiss what we do. Don't. Don't let the importance of your efforts to improve, strengthen, change be minimized in any way. It all starts somewhere. Why not here? Why not in a spin class? Why not in the Ride with Tommy! Come to class! Celebrate life! Celebrate your life! Celebrate your talents! Celebrate your efforts! It is all so worth it. Remember that! I hope to see you in class soon! Until then, in good health... tommy
