In this article, I want to share with you the best indoor cycling in Barcelona. Last year, I started to be really consistent with my workout routine and also, that was the year I discover that I actually like indoor cycling or what they often called spinning. You know how good is for your body to do any kind of workout to release the happy hormone and feel good after the session. We often get lazy and unmotivated but it takes a lot of dedication to actually do an hour of workout every day.
Here’s my recommendation for the best indoor cycling in Barcelona

Benefits of Indoor Cycling
To know more about the best indoor cycling in Barcelona let’s talk about first the benefits of this workout. Indoor cycling is one of the best workouts to improve your cardiovascular health as this kind of workout focus on high-intensity intervals, endurance, and strength. In just 45 minutes of indoor cycling, you will roughly burn 350 – 650 plus calories depending on the intensity of your workout. This workout focuses on the lower body. For best indoor cycling I will recommend they also do some minutes of upper body workout with weights during the session.
Shoes to use for Indoor Cycling
Let’s talk about the shoes that you will use for the spinning class. The spin bikes require specific shoes that lock to the pedals perfectly. The indoor cycling I recommend below they lend you the shoes when you book a session with them. There are two types of shoes for indoor cycling that you need to know about. When it was my first time and I wasn’t used to locking the two types of shoes and I find it difficult in the beginning. Although, there are assistants that will help you in the indoor cycling class, still nice to know it from yourself in case the assistant is really busy helping other students.

Favorite Places to do Indoor Cycling In Barcelona
Lapso Studio
Lapso Studio is the first ever studio I started my first-ever session. I like the place a lot and it has a pretty aesthetic studio. The cycling coaches here are really good and motivating that will help you more enjoy your cycling session.
They have a pretty interior design that makes you want to visit this cycling studio more often.
I like how firm and stable the spinning bikes are here and the energy of the crowd is really motivating.
LOVECYCLE
I believe they are the first cycling studio in Barcelona they open first than Lapso Studio. They have a nice interior as well and really great indoor cycling coaches.
As this cycling studio is older than Lapso studio I find some spinning bikes not stable. But overall, still, a very nice studio to do your indoor cycling workout here.
