Optimizing your Body, Optimizing Your Brain

For Bill.  Optimizing your Body... with Cardio Work Outs

The human brain burns enormous quantities of oxygen and fuel, so it is important to maintain an optimal cardio vascular system, which can be accomplished by walking, jogging, and cycling.  Bill, a friend, is interested in a Spin class, so I've posted three video clips that I hope will take him to the next step.   My gym recently opened a new building with this digital Spin console. Bill, you can select a ride  choosing from over 200 choices on the control panel below, then climb on a bike! 

For first timers, a good goal is to pace yourself for a 55 minute ride. Pedal until you need to ease back... take a minute or two d\pedaling at an easy pace to recover your breath, then pick up the pace again.  Repeat.  You can also jump into a Spin class as a beginner and use the same strategy.  Go at your own pace, but ease back when necessary so you can complete the 55 minute class.

Bill the video below will help you become familiar with the equipment and in this clip, the emergency brake.  Later you will have time to try a live Spin class, which will challenge your cardio vascular system, pour extra oxygen into your brain and contribute to your 120 and Beyond plan.  
I'm on a bike or in a spin class 3-4 times a week, it would be better to have a Spinning partner!
