Alternative Rock playlist from the 90’s

This session was versions of popular songs covered by different popular artists.  Songs your ears know and artists you know well, just not the combinations you are used to.

This one went back to the era of Latin Freestyle.  The fast rhythms and beat patterns made it a great one to sweat  to.

This ride was backed by girl power as the entire playlist was all female artists.  We came big though with long climbs and a series of rapid sprints.  Even a little choreography came into play.

Throwback 2000’s dance music

If you are looking to end a class looking like Swamp Thing this is the one. Very little recovery time between sets and some big pushes to get that meter in the red.

This would have been my 100th playlist for teaching fitness. The number of classes are way higher but we reuse stuff. Big shocker. To celebrate I did 100 years of Rock and Roll. 1920-2020. Enjoy a century of sweating.

This session had the wind in our faces. Lots of fast pushes with resistance of varying distances. The challenge is higher but it’s a good time. Ride the wind!

Friday we closed out the week with a set scored by the well know guitar riffs and timeless lyrics of Classic Rock.  This one was fairly climb heavy and doesn’t have many breaks.
