n Fitbods Fitness offers Vibe Cycle instructor training Coming soon…
nDelvin Clarke initiated Vibe Cycle at his club, Fitbods Fitness, in Walsall, UK. These sessions combine his background in both group cycling and exercise to music: all movements are made in synch with the beat, so participants become tuned in to the music and forget about their aching thighs. “Music sets off endorphins and people work harder when they’re using rhythm,” says Clarke. “Vibe stands for visualisation, mind, body and euphoria.” Clarke runs the classes on Keiser M3 bikes at his club, but the sessions are not specific to this bike – other sessions have used Technogym bikes, for example. Clarke has also launched a one-day Vibe Cycle instructor training course; as a result, sessions are now available across the country, run by 1,300 qualified instructors. As instructors choose their own music, there’s a huge amount of differentiation between classes, but Clarke maintains that classical and Celtic music are some of the most surprising, and popular, choices.
Too new to be out in clubs yet is a premium performance group cycling bike from Life Fitness: the Lifecycle GX. This ergonomic bike has been designed for comfort, with a wide adjustment range, and has an optional cycling computer to feed back details such as heart rate, speed, distance and calories. Now being piloted in a couple of clubs – in conjunction with InStyle bikes – is Web Racing’s multi-player cycling concept. This allows users to see themselves on-screen and race against other bikes in the club. Every 30 seconds, data flashes up on-screen, giving details about speed and distance achieved. The ultimate aim is for clubs to be able to race against other fitness clubs. Servicesport has recently acquired InStyle bikes and will be supporting the rollout of Web Racing.
