Awesome, Stacia—thanks so much for the music suggestion. I’ll be sure to check out Orianthi (I hadn’t heard of her before). Power 10, baby!

J.R.,

Many thanks for introducing me to the following songs from your recent playlists:
I know what I am – Band of Skulls
Always be – Jimmy Eat World
Because the night – Cascada
Put on the redlight – Police v Coldplay
Go – Moby
I’ve used them all! Have you checked out any songs by Orianthi? I’ve used both Believe and Acoording to You.

Thanks for making the links so easy to get to–just a click away.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Stacia

Hi Carolyn,

Thanks so much for checking out the new mix! If you click on each song title (in blue and bold font), it should link to a site where you can download the music. Are there certain songs where this isn’t working for you?

Best,
J.R.

I love your rides. I am having a problem finding some of the music in this mix. I have been using i-tunes and also tried amazon mp3. Any sugestions for me?

I always look foward to your next ride.

Thank You
Carolyn

Uh oh!!!!!!!!!! Umm…Trick…or treat???
Seriously, I’m sure I speak for scads of other spin instructors when I say that you are the ONLY thing I look forward to once a month You are truly an inspiration, and have the best music/profiles out there. I love to integrate your ideas into my classes, and the “power 10’s” have changed everything!! Hope that you’re well, and just busy doing other things…(You know, school, life… etc…) Every good wish..

Hi Helen,

First, thanks so much for the props! I’m real glad to learn that my lil’ site has been a fun and useful resource for you.

Also, I apologize for taking so long to respond to your question; I’ve simply been a bit preoccupied with some personal projects and I’ve neglected to give my site the care it needs in recent weeks.

As for your questions…

About song #2 (“Square One”), yes, it is a seated flat with a standing climb — though depending on the mood and atmosphere of the class, I change things around sometimes. But that is the base of the set.

Song #3 (“Cinderella”) — I explain that we’re going into a “grind and climb.” It’s a heavy-resistance uphill set, and I give the cues at the marks I noted in the song. The finish is going to be a brutal standing sprint, but I don’t signpost that (otherwise students may sandbag for the first part of the song).

I’ll try to be better in the future about titling the terrains — good suggestion!

Thanks for stopping by and let me know if you have any more questions.

J.R.
