I had one request for this morning's Sexy Spin. One request, but it helped shape the entire class. Sometimes, the smallest thing can make the biggest difference. In class, I talk a lot about control. This is in addition to all that I say about commitment, form, pace, resistance, movement, change, goals and results. As I mention, when you are in control, the smallest change you make can make a big difference! That's why I so strongly encourage you to commit to proper form while challenging yourself as much as possible by committing to resistance and the pace as dictated by the beat and the rhythm of the chosen music. Commit. Make that change. Challenge yourself. See the results. Get closer to realizing your goals. We reached back for some powerful and "old school" music to push us that much harder this morning. To motivate us to reach for more and higher goals. To reach a faster pace. To reach more challenging levels of resistance. And to have more fun while doing it! I think we accomplished those goals this morning. So, again, thank you! In good health, tommy

The Three C's: commitment, control, challenge. This may be all you need to have a successful indoor cycling class. Commitment to proper form, the various and changing paces and levels of resistance, and to making a change. Control over what you do in class so that you have some control over what you get out of class. Challenging yourself to do things more than you thought you could, more than you thought you were going to, more than you did last time. It is this focus on the three C's that could possibly change your workouts. I want to be there when you make that change. I want to be with you on this Ride, this journey. I want to help you make a difference, a positive change. Thanks for your support of the Ride with Tommy! See you next time! In good health!

Commitment. If you have taken even just one of my classes, you hear me talk a lot about commitment. It takes commitment to make a change. Change doesn't just happen. At least not the type of change that you really want or desire or commit to work towards. So I ask for commitment. Commitment to proper form on the bike. Commitment to the various levels of resistance on the bike. Commitment to the appropriate pace for each activity during a Ride. Commitment to the workout of which the entire class is a part and to which the entire class contributes. And it also includes commitment to show up. Yes, show up. Many times, the bikes are reserved in the new CRUNCH sign-up program. And many times, some of those bikes sit empty during class. Even (and especially!) in the front rows! Many times, a member doesn't attend the class as it is believed to be sold out because those bikes are reserved. This is not an ideal situation. So I am once again asking for your commitment. If you sign up for a bike, show up. Or if for some reason you can't make it, cancel your reservation as soon as possible. Let someone who really wants to commit to making a positive change in their way of life, in their fitness level and in their overall physical and mental well-being be allowed to be a part of that Ride. Don't be selfish. Be committed. Be determined. Be special. Be who you are. Just don't be rude. Thanks! In good health! tommy

Music is such a vital part of an indoor cycling class. I try to play a variety of genres without going to far from the mainstream. My goal is for everyone to know (and hopefully like) at least one song in every class! I carefully choose each song for a particular activity in class. I make my decisions based on the beat while hoping to find songs that have a motivational build or sound. And the music is so very important to the energy and the fun that can make a class rise above so many ordinary classes and make it extraordinary! That is my goal. To provide an extraordinary class every time. So I spend so much time on preparing the music, but while in class, I also spend a lot of time on the other aspects of class that I feel are also so important. Form, commitment, energy, focus: these are four things that can also help each rider take their workouts to the next level. Go above and beyond the ordinary. Be extraordinary! Ride with Tommy! Thanks to each and every one of you for being a part of the Ride with Tommy! You all help make it what it is. So, thank you again. I hope to see you next time. In good health!

Group fitness classes produce an energy that helps propel you forward. By committing to the form, pace, resistance and movements in an indoor cycling class, you are helping create that energy. And we all need that energy. The music helps. The instructor helps. But the energy that is created when so many people gather in a room to do the same thing (at whatever level they are...it doesn't matter...but the commitment does matter!), can help move each of us closer to obtaining our goals. Whatever those goals may be. And we all have different goals. They may appear alike in general, but each of us is different. Our bodies are different. What we expect to get out of a Ride is different. So with so many differences, you wouldn't think that so much can be accomplished by working together. Well that is exactly what happens! So I ask each of you to commit at the beginning of class. Commit to making a difference. Commit to making a positive change. How much you commit is up to you. What you accomplish is definitely individual. But together, by creating that positive energy, we can all do so much more! So thanks to everyone for being a part of the Ride with Tommy! this morning! Thanks to each of you for creating such amazing energy! Thanks for making such amazing change! See you next time! In good health!

This morning's Red Line Ride was somewhat of a special class. It wasn't a birthday spin, but I did ask for a few requests of favorite songs from Lisi, who will be moving to New York and getting married! This is a bittersweet occasion as this was her last Ride with Tommy! at Crunch Fitness - Sunset, However, Lisi will be beginning a new and exciting chapter in her life, and we wish her the absolute best! Thanks to everyone for being there and again demonstrating what we all can do when we focus, commit, push and challenge ourselves while part of a group! That's what group fitness is all about. That is what the Ride with Tommy! is all about!
