Give yourself the gift of one full hour on the bike — a holiday Power Hour packed with rhythm riding, HIIT intervals, climbs, choreography, and pure feel-good energy. 🎄🔥 This ride was suggested by Team Tufts member Ashley, and it’s all about showing up for you. We warm up, find our rhythm, dial in form, build power with heavy gear work, hit HIIT pushes, play with drops + walk choreography, and keep that heart rate riding high the whole time. Ride to the beat. Breathe with intention. Push through the tough moments. And remember — you’re stronger than you think you are. ❤️🔥 🎁 What to expect in this Power Hour: -Rhythm riding to holiday-inspired music -Heavy climbs + resistance pushes -HIIT intervals for power & endurance -Out-of-the-saddle work -Core activation (walks, drops, army crawls) -Choreography sections -Pure holiday vibes and self-care energy This is the perfect give-back-to-yourself Spin Class ride.

This is how you own every pedal stroke and protect your knees. 1 — Barely there. Easy spinning, just warming up. 2 — Light resistance. Still smooth, but you’re starting to feel it. 3 — Easy cruising pace. Low effort, but engaged. 4 — Moderate light resistance. You’re working, but comfortable. 5 — Steady and controlled. Medium-low resistance, getting stronger. 6 — Climbing steadily now. Moderate effort—you’re working. 7 — Mid-hill grind. Solid medium resistance, no coasting. 8 — Heavy resistance kicks in. Time to dig deep. 9 — This climb is tough. You’re pushing hard. 10 — Max resistance. Smooth, strong, controlled—peak power. _________________________________________________________________ Join this channel to get access to perks: / @jentufts_cycling FOR MORE RIDES LIKE THIS, CLICK HERE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list... your FREE GUIDE to Indoor Cycling: 👉🏼 jentufts.com _________________________________________________________________ Support the channel: ☕ Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/jentufts_cyc... 📲 Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/Jen-Tufts _________________________________________________________________ Connect with me: 📍 Comment where you’re riding from!
