Happy hump day psycho's!!! I excited to tell you that Jeanie's Custom Fitness Studio will be participating in the National Wear Red day. Our day will consist of 30 minutes of Spin and 30 minutes of ZUMBA. All proceeds will be donated to the American Heart Association. $15 for both classes!!! Dancing, spinning, and cardio vascular fitness is the best thing to order at this happy hour! Free prize with registration and raffle ticket for a give away. If you are in the area and are interested in participating and/or donating, please visit Jeanies facebook page.
This was the same ride "profile" on both days, but I did switch out 2 or 3 songs. You have to know how to read your audience and I get such different crowds at both studios. I am going to try to also give you an idea of why I may have chosen these songs.
Warm Up
Lunar - David Guetta - this song has no lyrics and it was kind of nice not to have to wait for a break in the music to say what I need to say during the warm up :)
Running Flats
Glad You Came - The Wanted - the lyrics say it all!
Running Flats
What the Water Gave Me (Romeo Blanco Remix) - Florence and the Machine - just a great beat for a long, flat road.
Running Hills (intervals)
Night of Your Life - David Guetta - the beat picks up at 3 different spots making it a great song to execute intervals.
Hills
Lift Me Up - Moby - I like to say "lift your heels up on the bottom pedal stroke" to go along with the lyrics.
Climb
Take a Picture - Filter - Who doesn't love a blast - from - the - past rock song?
Running Flats - Domino (house remix) - Jessie J - just a twist on a popular song on the radio.
Jumps
Open Your Eyes (sex ray vision remix) - Snow Patrol - nice, even beat for perfect jumps.
Running Hills (intervals)
Kryptonite - 3 Doors Down - rocking beat to get everyone pumped up.
Running Hills (intervals)
Devour - Shinedown - I know a few people in class that really love Shinedown.
Running Flats
Purple Haze (Benny Benassi Remix) - Jimi Hendrix - Does this one really need a reason?
Running Flats
Touch the Sky - Sean Paul - newer song with a fun beat.
Climb
Bottoms Up - Nickelback - I tell them to not think of a drink "bottom", but their own "bottom" in this song as they climb out of the saddle.
Cool Down
Holocene - Bon Iver
Funny cues! I remember teaching a hill on Depeche Mode "a pain that I'm used to" and asking the students to get their point of failure, or a point that they were not used to! Haha! I think they hated me for that one!
