Break a Sweat in Boston: The Best Spin Studios | By Jamie Gaines

Over the last few years lifestyle choices have become increasingly prominent aspects of real estate purchasing decisions. One important element of today’s urban lifestyle choice is: how and where do you work out? Are you a boxer, a runner, a swimmer, a yogi, a rackets person or any other physical version of yourself? 

 

Innovative spin studios have pushed past the “fad” stage and now occupy a definitive position on the hierarchy of workout options. Whether you’re looking for the closest blue bike docking station, space for your Pelotonin your home or boutique spin studios, we’ve got you covered in Boston! Spin classes aren’t like getting on the bike at your local Planet Fitness. If you ask any frequent rider they will be happy to espouse why boutique spin studios have popped up all over the city. These trendy workouts are commonly 45 minutes of high intensity interval training (HIIT) routines to the beat of different genres of music. Each class (and instructor) caters to particular musical styles and influences.  For example, Taylor Swift Tuesdays, Throwback Thursday, Nicki Minaj Fridays, and so many more. This phenomenon that has shown rapid growth is targeted by the social impact of men and women engaging in a healthy lifestyle while still being able to meet new people…

The music is loud, the beat is steady, and the social impact is invigorating!
