My first experience with SoulCycle

I started SoulCycle because it’s a trend and I always have to try everything once. It was a free class and I said “screw it” lets do it.

I’ll be honest, the night before my first class I was up all night watching videos and psyching myself out. In retrospect I really shouldn’t have done that, there is nothing scary about SoulCycle.

I was talking to a friend this morning about why he wouldn’t go to SoulCycle and I was kind of shocked. He was afraid of the shoes and falling off the bike (Sorry J! I had to tell people!)

Let’s get a few things straight about SoulCycle.

  1. YOU WILL NOT FALL OFF THE BIKE
    The shoes are there to make sure you don’t. You are literally clipped into the bike
  2. Drink lots of water
    You will sweat so much during this class you’ll want to drink before class and during
  3. You will want to quit
    I have never been to a Soul class I haven’t had to push myself through to the end. I probably get half way through the class and think “I feel like I’m going to die, I’m done” and then the other voice inside of me says “Don’t be a Pussy, keep pushing” So I do. Best feeling in the world is the end of class knowing that you have accomplished something great.
