Abu Dhabi: A new indoor cycling studio at Abu Dhabi’s Dusit Thani Hotel claims it can help fitness enthusiasts burn up to 600 calories in 60 minutes.
The hotel’s fitness director Rujira La-in said the DFiT Fitness Centre facility is perfect for those who prefer intense yet short workout sessions.
“It’s like doing aerobics on a bike. The only difference is that you are pedalling a static cycle,” said La-in who is from Thailand.
“There is music and there is coordinated movement and speed. It is lot of fun and it can help you shed fat quickly,” added La-in.
She said visitors can burn up to 600 calories in 45 to 60 minutes by varying resistance levels and sprint cycling speeds. The 45-minute cycling session is followed by a 10 to 15-minute off-bike core strength contouring workout. The contouring session comprises weight and resistance training.
“You don’t have to be a fitness freak. People of all levels of stamina can do this under the supervision of our trainers,” he said. Classes are held daily except Thursday and Saturday. A session costs Dh75 and a package of 10 classes costs Dh600.
