>>1286514its kind of fun. It also forces me to train in different ways.
When I ride on my own I just go for a nice cruise and only really put pressure on myself when the music hits and feels good, I happen to find a hill, or I am just in a mood to catch that other rider that is a mile ahead of me.
When in the spin class now I am legit forcing myself to perform for the sake of performing and getting better.
try doing a time trial class with a bunch of people to just prove that you have more endurance and push faster than the rest of them.
Force myself to hold my heart rate at 175 for a full 20 minutes instead of just while I am going up the hill for 12-15 minutes.
Cant stop pedaling so no coasting like I normally would.
FWIW I have never done one with all the flashing lights and EDM music, more of just being yelled at and called a pussy for 45 minutes
