    ok but...

    you better taking me mountain biking!


    actually from what i said above, there are very few instructors who do this. A lot of what i do is mainly because as a personal trainer, i am required to do this, so it spills into my group fitness classes as well. As i have gained more knowledge and experience, i have become verrrry picky about how instructors should instruct.

    Instructors

    We had an incredible instructor who was also a personal trainer who was always off the bike helping people adjust their riding technique. She also talked about nutrition, focusing on your muscles as you use them, etc. The spin-ettes in the class thought she was overbearing and picking on them. Her classes dwindled to nothing. Very very sad. I see her working out and sometimes ask her if she will ever return. She said no.

    that's too bad. Some people want to come and just strap in and go, oblivious to getting the most out of if or how to do it correctly.
