Description

Training with power doesn’t have to be complex to be effective. This course is designed to demystify power by blending the thrill of challenge with the satisfaction of cutting-edge practices. Learn the concept of power, how it is measured, and why it is used by athletes and enthusiasts in their daily training. We'll determine your Personal Spinning® Threshold (PST) using the SPINPower® test protocol, and you’ll learn how to teach it to your students as well. In addition, learn how PST relates to Functional Threshold Power (FTP), explore the different FTP test protocols and apply these concepts in your classes. By educating your participants on understanding their individual power thresholds, you will empower them to manage their intensity more effectively, leading to better workout outcomes. Get ready to embrace the data-driven revolution!

This course is for you if:

  • You teach Spinning® or indoor cycling classes on bikes with power measurement.

  • You want to learn more about power before signing up for the SPINPower® Certification.

  • You want to understand how to coach threshold tests (like FTP) and use the results.

  • You want to measure your progress, set precise training goals, and unlock your full potential on the bike.

  • You need to earn CECs for your Spinning® certification.

This course includes a:

  • Video presentation with a Spinning® Master Instructor.

  • Detailed explanation of various FTP and ramp tests.

  • Video class to experience a Personal Spinning® Threshold test.

  • Downloadable slide presentation.

  • Class profile with coaching notes that you can use in your own classes.

  • Self-assessment learning activity to see and evaluate your PST test coaching skills.

After you enroll, you’ll get an email with a link to start the course and complete it at your own pace. It’s not required to have a bike of your own to complete this course, but it’s recommended that you complete the ride and learning activity on a bike.
