Actually, I know that with the demonstrate gymnastics only from the gymnastics club in my home village and from aerobics classes and the Like, I held myself as far as possible remote. Today, however, is a turn-off, because today I visit the coolest Workout, the the city has to offer. At least it is the favorite Workout of Melanie Winiger, including the addiction factor, it was said. And Melanie, the coolest woman in the city, the Kate Moss of Switzerland.
Spark Cycling is the thing, the idea comes from America: “Ignite your inner Fire”, so the Motto, “sculpt your body”, “free your mind”. Melanie swears by Instructor Irina, there’s one called “Head Instructor”. She leads us to a 20 “Rider” sitting on wheels in the “Cube”, a darkened room on our bikes and to your commands to wait. Better: We are in the Saddle and compete in the Rhyhtmus by DJ Khaled, Rihanna and ASAP Rocky. The front, barks, trills, sings Irina, motivated and corrected. The class – two brave men only women – occurs in a feeding frenzy,, sweating and panting even more, as it were, a collective birth pangs.
The author tried with Melanie Winigers to their favorite workout “Spark Cycling”.
Melanie had warned me: The hardest fitness training Zurich is the, even most educated sports professionals come to their limits. So I’ll get it, even if the legs begin to burn soon, and I command feel in Irina’s Left/Right-like a motor dyslexic. The Workout is a full body workout with a focus on stamina and leg muscles, and even dance elements to it, the catapult but to me, almost from the bike there. The lack of elegance I’m trying to use iron out, but because it is dark, it plays no role at all. I step in line with the Beat, with Irina and with a half-page view of Melanie. She is in full Flow, because that’s the point here: let go, have fun, give everything.
Whether it is the toughest fitness training is for others to decide. Important is something else anyway, as my soon to be revealed. As I can’t any more and the ropes hang, I dive into the music that takes over darkness, and eventually, a force greater than myself, the whip of the cosmos drives you over the proceeds at the end of the target line, as Irena announced: Well, now, we did it. Uff. I look to Melanie, it emits radiation – all of the Riders, as you would have seen the light. The way I do. It was my own and will now, hopefully, as beautiful as all the other Riders. www.sparkcycle.ch
