A Spin Class
I wrote a blog post summarizing 10 great bicycle side hustles. This is the 9th one. 


Spin classes are huge and becoming a spin class instructor would be a great side hustle. Spin classes are a popular form of exercise that offer a variety of benefits, including improved cardiovascular health, increased strength and endurance, and weight loss. If you're a certified spin instructor, teaching spin classes is a great way to share your love of cycling with others and make some extra money on the side.

Here are some tips for teaching spin classes as a side hustle:

  • Find a gym or fitness studio that's hiring spin instructors. You can search for job postings online or contact local gyms and studios directly.
  • Prepare for your interview. Be sure to research the gym or studio you're interviewing with and practice your teaching skills.
  • Create a dynamic and engaging class plan. Your class plan should include a variety of drills and exercises to keep your students challenged and motivated.
  • Be a positive and supportive instructor. Encourage your students to work hard and achieve their fitness goals.
  • Promote your classes. Let your friends, family, and social media followers know that you're teaching spin classes. You can also create a website or blog to promote your classes and build a following.

Here are some additional tips for success:

  • Get to know your students. Learn their names, fitness goals, and any injuries or limitations they may have. This will help you to create a class that is safe and effective for everyone.
  • Be flexible. Be prepared to adjust your class plan on the fly if needed. For example, if you have a lot of new students in class, you may need to spend more time explaining the basics.
  • Be positive and enthusiastic. Your energy and enthusiasm will be contagious and will help to motivate your students.
  • Have fun! Spin classes are supposed to be enjoyable, so make sure that you're having fun too.

Teaching spin classes is a great way to make extra money on the side, and it's a rewarding experience to help others achieve their fitness goals. By following the tips above, you can set yourself up for success as a spin instructor.

Here are some additional ideas for making more money as a spin instructor:

  • Sell spin-related merchandise. This could include things like water bottles, towels, and cycling clothing.
  • Lead spin workshops and retreats. This is a great way to share your knowledge and expertise with other spin instructors and enthusiasts.
  • Create a spin-focused online course or membership site. This is a great way to reach a wider audience and to generate passive income.

Cycling is a popular form of exercise that is known for its many benefits. One of the most common reasons people take up cycling is for weight loss. But the question is, is 30 minutes of cycling a day enough to lose weight? In this blog post, I will explore the answer to this question and look at the benefits of cycling for weight loss. When I first started cycling as an adult after a few years of being sedentary, I thought 30 minutes a day was a lot. It did not take long for me to ratchet up from 30 minutes a day to more. Cycling just has a way of grabbing you and not letting go, but I quickly found out something else. If I was going to continue eating my same bad diet, even an hour of cycling every day was not going to help me lose weight. I am going to cover the basics here and then try to answer the question, is 30 minutes of cycling a day enough to lose weight.

Exploring the Many Benefits of Cycling as a Lifetime Sport

I love cycling and have been involved in it since my teens. It became my lifetime sport of choice but it was not always the one I thought I would end up doing into my 60's. As a child and into my high school years, I was a basketball player. I enjoyed playing it into my 30's with some of my co-workers but it really became too difficult for me. Before I became a cyclist I was an avid runner and ran many marathons but the wear and tear on my knee joints pretty much ended that for me. In fact, I have a rebuilt knee now because of my running. I was both a cyclist and a runner before I tore up my knee but turned specifically to cycling once my joints let me down. Cycling can be done way into your senior years. I once came across an 83 year old man on one of my training rides and he was still enjoying cycling about 3 days each week. In this blog post, I want to explore the many benefits of cycling as a lifetime sport. Cycling is a popular sport and leisure activity that has been enjo
