Friendliest Beginner Rhythm Indoor Cycling Class | 30 minute

[@KathleenERoberts]

I’m going to be honest here…I cried on the bike today. Not because the workout was tough (my hammies and my glutes are definitely going to feel it going up the stairs!), but because of what you said during the cool down. For the past ten years of my life, my weight has been scrutinized by my family and my doctor. I’m nowhere near a plus size, nor am I obese, but any time I gain a little bit of weight, immediately I get comments like, “Oh, you need to cut back on the carbs, you need to do this, you need to look like for your age and height, etc”. It’s a real struggle for me mentally, because it affects how I see myself. I see my flaws, imperfections, areas that need to be improved, and trimmed. And to top it off, I get compared to fitness KZbinrs who have been exercising for most of their life, whereas I have just introduced your spin classes into my routine four weeks ago. I’m tired of the comments and the constant comparisons to other people. What you said during the cool down struck a cord with me, and broke down. But I needed to hear those words. I need to do this for me, to make me strong both physically and mentally. So (I know, long winded rant!), I wanted to thank you for providing these workouts and words of encouragement today. I needed that little reminder that this fitness journey belongs to me, and my progress is my own, not anyone else’s. So THANK YOU! ❤

[@kaleigh]

Kathleen!!!! I’m sending you huge hugs right now!!! I’m so happy that you found the importance of doing this for you!!! Not just to fit in a box of what people want you to be! Being your best you is what it’s all about, not a number or a cliche idea of what “healthy” is. I love that you shared this and I appreciate it!! Keep being awesome! 💜

[@KathleenERoberts]

@@kaleigh Wow, thank you for the lovely comment! As someone who has PCOS, it’s a struggle to not gain weight. But I’m doing my best with a healthy diet, good sleep, and exercise. I have already started to see the results in my calves, arms, and core. Thank you for taking the time to respond, and thank you for making these motivational workout videos that keep me coming back every week! Also I love your pug, Stella! She’s so cute! ❤️

[@KK-iy2he]

@@KathleenERoberts Wanted to chime in and say that Kaleigh - your words for those of us who struggle with weight and fitness are inspiring - I started a couple of months ago and I keep coming back because I feel welcome in your classes - in spite of not being the fittest or having a spin bike (I have a stationary bike) - you are focussed on health and just encouraging us for coming out and to keep trying. Words can inspire - and your words do - you have a gift and thank you for sharing it with us.

[@meghanking5395]

Girl yes! Kaleigh is the only spin instructor I follow on KZbin. She is so inspirational! I need to get my Covid shut down weight off because I was recently diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis and even though I was yelling at Kaleigh my first few times on the bike, I look forward to doing her videos because she is so encouraging. We are all in this together no matter what our reason is! Keep up the hard work dear friend ❤

[@roboboro]

Girl I'm so sorry. I'm overweight to the point of almost obesity and although my family and I keep know it's not healthy and it's better to be thin, my family doesn't do that kind of things of scrutinizing or pressuring you. My boyfriend loves my body but reminds me of a healthy -not obsessed- lifestyle. If you want to lose weight it's great, but please, don't allow others to make you feel bad or judged. Love your family but draw a healthy line.

[@mckinzycalapp5455]

You have been the leader and the voice to my 50 lb weight loss. You’ve helped me change my life, and for that I’m forever greatful. Better everyday. Xoxo thanks a million 🎉

[@kennyvaughn3912]

I did a quick search for beginner spin class and came across you. Thank you so much for what you do. I'm 65 years young and haven't been on my stationary in a few years. Proud to say I made it through this first class.

[@dalanhoshimuro2090]

Not me crying because I just finished this workout for the first time. ;-; Thank you Kaleigh for the encouragement and work. This is the longest I’ve ever stuck with an exercise routine and I am loving this journey with you.

[@kaleigh]

💜💜💜

[@tauau3571]

Did 11 minutes two days ago, managed to make it to 20 today! I'll try to do the full 30 next time ☺️ thank you for the motivation!

[@kaleigh]

🙌😍 YAY!!! That’s awesome way to go!! 💜

[@aroskusoseshi]

I feel you. Building it up🤣👍👍🎉🎉🎉

[@taragee787]

OMG, your pug is my new spirit animal. Thanks for the super positive intro to the spin bike. It will be a hot minute before my quad rupture has recovered to the point I can keep up, but it's a start. At the very least, it will help shed the pounds I gained during my convalescence.

[@ASlightlyBetterWife]

I made it 10 minutes and dang, I'm so proud of myself! Thank you for your encouragement! Can't wait to try again!

[@taylorblair5062]

I cried during this. You are so encouraging and have such a lovely energy!!! Thanks for making these videos 🤍🤍🤍

[@cherylhackett7609]

This was mentally challenging for me, because I wasn't really motivated. But you know what? With your instructions, I made it!!! I'm a rock star. Lol. Thank you.

[@hilarystaff4768]

OMG, WOW not sure what part of the ride was beginners ! My legs certainly didn’t find it 😆🤣 Just fab as always , thank you xx

[@Melanie112482]

I needed this today. Been in a huge rut lately... your words of inspiration, seeing you make mistakes, and the reminders that I am on my journey not on anyone else's, was much needed. Thank you!

[@lje4962]

Just done this, my first ever spin class, recovering from a long period of illness so pretty unfit, and loved it! Thanks so much @Kayleigh!

[@jg074]

A month into this and I am beginning to feel other muscles waking up in my legs that are helping me to get stronger during this workout, great music!

[@tiera2167]

Thank you Kaleigh, ive dropped 15lbs doing this. 5 to go! You've introduced me to a form a cardio that I finally love

[@SandyW.Naples]

You know KC I’ve been spinning for years but took a sabbatical. I’m 67 years old. I thought I could make it through your entire workout, but it just shows what shape I am in. I do stairmaster and a little bit of spinning, lots of weightlifting and I’ve been slacking. Low self-esteem, I’m carrying some body fat that is hard to kick…I’m a little person. I am a bit out of shape. You have given me so much inspiration and encouragement through this video. I love your personality and how you keep encouraging us right along and I thank you for this. I’m going to make a commitment today to spend every day with you. Thank you thank you so much. thank you Stella for the funny faces and countdown ❤️ I too was in tears for thankfulness!

[@Kujhawks66106]

This ride was fantastic, and it flew by! I loved how it just kept moving the entire time. There was so much variety and the music was really fun! Thank you!

[@katywilliams9477]

Great advice!! Just keep on pedaling, doesn’t matter speed or syncing with Kayleigh if you aren’t ready! It’s more important that you got on the bike and you are moving 🎉❤Love you Kayleigh, Jason and Stella too❤😅

[@Healingartsmx]

Ive been recovering from an injury and this was my first even jump on spinning, I had a few tears, because after the first 5 minutes the energy and wakefullness came back to my body in streams. ❤Thankyou. Will be starting my days with you from now on. ❤

[@marilynschneider3313]

Hi Kaleigh, I am a 74 yr. old into keeping fit. The problem is that it is winter here now in OH and I walk ,cycle, mow lawns and swim in summer. So now I can walk and indoor cycle which I have been doing with your 20 min.routine for a few months and have really liked it. Today I did the friendliest 30 min.beginner and liked it too, even if it did kick my butt! I especially love the way you mix up moves and remind about form, which sometimes I do forget while riding. My husband of 50yrs, passed in Jan. 2021 and this is a stress reliever for me. I am so glad I found you and want to thank you for your inspiration. I hope to move up in your routines before summer returns.

[@kaleigh]

Hi Marilyn!! Yay!! I’m so glad we can workout together! I know those cold winters well, growing up in Michigan! 😲🥶 Hehe! Anyways, awesome you gave the 30 minute ride a go! 🙌 I’m really so sad to hear about your husband and I’m sorry for your loss. 😢 50 years of marriage, that’s really amazing though! Big hugs and lots of love! I can’t wait to se you for our next workout! 💜

[@aylak928]

First workout back after about 7 weeks off due to injuries, Ramadan fasting etc. I have definitely lost some fitness but ALL the enjoyment remains! Thanks Kayleigh! This is one of my favourites. ❤️ The music is brilliant.

[@katiepeabody1089]

After nearly 6 weeks of being inactive and recovering from back surgery, I was finally cleared to return to low impact cardio 🙌 this beginner ride was exactly where I needed to be to get back into it. Also, love going back to older videos to see Stella 💓

[@michellelupo5155]

The most inspirational cycling Coach/Trainer/Friend/Woman/Human Ive ever subscribed to, the best ride ❤🎉 Thank you

[@adambelinson4405]

I just got on the bike and out of recovery. I started spinning in 1995. I absolutely love your workout and the way you train.

[@princessaisyah7029]

Hey Keleigh. So bloody happy just done for my first time a 30 minutes workout. Usually l can do a 20-25 minutes workout. Today l was determined to finished It including the jumps. Yeah!! High 5 Kaleigh 💪💪

[@TheTyReid]

Planned on a quick 15, loved this so much I stayed the whole way! Thanks for all your inspiration. Side note: Fitbod is my go to for lifting tracking.

[@Bhairavy07]

This was my recovery ride, ive been 5 months consistent with this super hero, and i cried at that speech in the end❤

[@sherryraabe3794]

I just got over being sick for three weeks and needed a workout that wasn’t too vigorous. Yet I’m here!!!

[@TitoCanuso]

Yeeeesss! It has been almost 2 years!! I felt like dying but I finished!! You are the best Madam!!!

[@kimthompson240]

Hey these are great. One suggestion- when you change resistance, you say "let's go to a 6!" But I can't remember if I was at a 5 or a 7, so it would be super helpful if you say "Let's go from a 5 to a 6!" Thanks for your great energy!

[@ashlynmarie8523]

This was my first spin workout in YEARS and I stopped and started twice but finished and feel amazing and a little like jello thanks so much Kaleigh!! ❤

[@fitfrugal]

This was perfect. I wanted to do a spin class at my gym but the times didn’t work for me, plus you never know what quality of class you’re going to get with a live teacher. Here’s the solution. Only downside is I no longer have any excuse to skip exercise! 😂

[@ramagev]

Love it!! Do some movie themed workouts. Imagine a La la land or Mission Impossible workout day. It would be fun! Thank you for all your motivation❤️

[@michaelbosworth5439]

Kaleigh is inspiring and motivating while being unintimidating, making me feel great for trying and forgiving myself for what i cant do...YET! really good! i did 24 out of 30 mins although not at the same speeds but i did it longer and stronger than i ever had before! Thanks girl!!

[@mrviceboi6105]

I couldn't find an instructor through the Peloton app that I bonded with. I had done your workouts on my Amazon spin bike before getting a peloton. I cancelled my membership almost a year ago and have gone back to your KZbin workouts and use the screen on my peloton to show time speed and resistance when doing your videos. This one is one of my favorites. Thank you Kaleigh! I love your workouts so much more than any I found on Pelotons membership and yours are FREE on KZbin AND I LOVE them!!

[@kaleigh]

Aww! Thank you so much! That's so sweet! So glad to hear you love them! 💜

[@bridgetstarr677]

You are right where you are suppose to be….what an encourager! Thank you.

[@maryluequiroga3165]

Please please keep being a form freak😄😉 It hepls so much especially me recovering from a injury. Love your channel.❤God bless

[@kaleigh]

Aww! Thank you Marylue! 💜💜

[@NM-nt6ge]

The perfect recovery day ride. I needed a good cardio class one day after going back to mega reformer pilates and this class did the trick. I was really sore but still wanted something to help break up the lactic acid buildup. Thank you Kaleigh :)

[@kaleigh]

Woo!! That’s perfect! 🙌

[@brookeflewelling7129]

I found your channel a few months before I got pregnant and loved all your videos so much! I'm now almost 30 weeks and still going-- modifying when needed and coming back to these beginner rides. Thanks for helping me stay active and feeling strong!

[@teresareal8642]

Your are a true INSPIRATION. Your encouragement is PRICELESS!!!! Thank you,

[@lennafantastic9872]

Thank you Kayleigh! I am really enjoying your classes! And I always follow the dessert afterwards!

[@mimifufu6001]

Today is my fourth day l am getting better everyday l dont understand how but first day I made it to 10 minutes but today 30 minutes. Thank you so so much dear 😘 💕 l didn't stand up but l exercise through the all training 💪 . I appreciate your help and effort 👌.

[@korephoenix]

My first online ride and I have to say thank you so much!! Great pace, so encouraging and awesome tunes. Like others I left in tears (in the best way), you are what I needed today! Thank you

[@RichardUpton]

That’s a lovely motivational 30 minutes. Any new people to your site will surely see this and want to continue with you, as I did at the start of this year 😊

[@laurenweston2685]

I just adore everything about you! You inspire me so much! You make me feel like I can get healthy finally. Thank you sincerely.

[@teresadiaz9127]

I must admit I really didn’t feel like working out today. I even cleaned my room and did some laundry but kept thinking I need to get on but also saying Im really tired. So I grabbed my cycling shoes put them on a just got on. Thank you for making this easier, love your videos your so encouraging ♥️

[@kayknox1287]

One of my faves…best music, best choreo, BEST Kaleigh. The life coaching at the end is real boost! More, More, More!!

[@pamelamarcey25]

I found this today and did a spin with you. I want to tell you that I love the encouragement you provide during the ride. Thank you so much!

[@ChancyFit]

I ALWAYS love your 30 minute spin class. I also love your in depth explanation of how the spin bike works. Let’s go Ms. Enjoy 💥💥💥💥💥💥

[@kaleigh]

Thanks, Chancy!!! I really appreciate your sweet comments! ☺️💜🙏🏻

[@ChancyFit]

@@kaleigh you are very welcome and well deserved🥳🥳

[@annetremblay]

This was a perfect recovery ride from mountain biking the night before. Always love the motivation talks too, merci beaucoup !!

[@conniefoust7480]

Nothing works better for me than your videos. You are my favorite, just the best

[@helenledingham8000]

Another fab one but my goodness beginner?!! Glad I didn't go for intermediate!! Exhausted and sweaty but feeling good and ready for the day (UK). THANKS Kayleigh🥰🥰

[@rcuauhtle]

Lauren, all I want to say is...Thank you!, you're amazing. I love all your videos. I am your fan.

[@amberdanielleUGCcreator]

It was definitely a killer workout for my first day I was making it rain in first 5 mins of video....i have high hopes for this spin class. I have such severe body dysmorphia. And it's hard when your so short but considered over weight just because your height. 153lbs today and I'm hoping to hit 133lb for my goal weight . ❤ keep on encouraging me. So I can reach my goal.😊

[@shay_starlessxsea]

I'm 11 weeks postpartum and am really LOVING your workouts!! Thankyou ❤

[@jamillebezerra6474]

Wow 🤩 I just bought a spinning bike and has arrived yesterday and this was the first work out I did and I’m so happy!!! You are awesome and upfull!! I’m feeling so great now after finishing your workout!! The amazing word you said at the end during cool down was very important to me to hear too, I do really need to do this for myself specially mentally!!Thank you so much!!! I’m glad I found your Chanel!!!❤

Lost power half way through! Finished the ride on my phone in the dark!! 😂 thankyou so much for the ability to do these workouts anywhere at anytime!

[@jbrealtorgal6852]

Oh Yah!!! Uh Huh!!!! Just what I needed. I didn't think I would make past 15 minutes....oh, what a sweet ride. Love this one!!! Again Thank you for the best workouts Kaleigh, you rock sister!!!

[@traceyhudson173]

Where would we be without your pep talks?! Just what I needed this morning - keep them coming and thank you! By the way, Stella rocks every time!

[@denniscox8000]

I just finished this ride after doing your ten minute warm up video. Two weeks ago on one of your rides I had trouble doing a hill climb at the 8 resistance. Today I did the 8 and the 9 and even held out on the 10, even though earlier on when you said we would be hitting 10 I was a bit worried. After the video I did a five minute cool off and then some stretching. Darned if I don't feel great. Thank-you.

[@kaleigh]

YES!!!!! That’s awesome!!!!! Way to go, Dennis!!! Makes my heart so happy to hear your progress! Keep kicking butt! 🎉🤩👏

[@danyarebecca7465]

I didn’t want to miss the chance of thanking you for this beautiful experience, what you’re doing not only helps our bodies but also our hearts, I’ve been struggling mentally and physically for years and I don’t think I’ve ever cried during a fitness session till now, and not because the workout was a struggle, but your incredible aura, words of encouragement, and your whole vibe towards your people, your positive attitude helped me release whatever I was keeping inside, it felt as my longtime friend was helping me out of a hole. It’s just makes me realized that this part of my journey can also be fun and enjoyable, so from the bottom of my heart thank you, thank you for existing, and thank you for helping us❤️‍🩹
