Indoorcycling Group circuits for all
The Indoorcycling Group (ICG) has launched its new I.C.E Cyclewell education programme following pilot schemes in 2010.
Providing instructors with the tools to create 'the ultimate combination class' - a fusion of functional strength, conditioning and cardio in a circuit training approach - the course offers a practical framework, with ways to adapt the circuits to allow sports- and fitness-focused consumers to train alongside those with special requirements or medical conditions. The class uses equipment such as bands, hand weights, kettlebells, body bars and Swiss balls, as well as incorporating body weight exercises, but its USP is the application of the Cyclewell Adaptor - a patented accessory that transforms the Tomahawk and Livestrong cycles into a much more upright position.
In combination with an optional extra wide saddle, this increases participants' comfort and riding safety through enhanced back support, core stability and sense of space, making it ideal for use by pregnant women, GP referral clients, the deconditioned, seniors and other special populations.
