However, this Thanksgiving doesn’t have to be unforgiving. Even though the holiday has a rep for being a “stuff-your-face” kind of day, there are plenty of ways to maintain your healthy habits and still enjoy the “big meal.”

“It Not Just a Workout Class, But Rather a Part of My Everyday Life.”

before and after-nicole-charlotte-580

Nicole Moll of Charlotte, North Carolina shares her story on how in just one year, Flywheel has become more than just a workout for her and her boyfriend. 

I absolutely have never fallen so hard in love with a fitness regimen until I discovered Flywheel Sports.  I started FLYing in at Flywheel Charlotte in March 2013 and have since become completely addicted to the amazing energy, empowering classes and the Fly family I have gained.  It’s not just a workout class, but rather a significant part of my everyday life, a commitment to myself, and a healthy hobby that I share with several friends on a regular basis.

Flywheel Instructors Share Their Go-To Breakfasts

Eat your breakfast. You’ve heard it a million times before, and there’s good reason that you’re reading it again here.  Making a habit of having a healthy breakfast within an hour of waking up has many physical and mental benefits.  Breaking-the-fast not only jump-starts your metabolism, but it keeps you on track with your weight-loss goals (yes, eat to lose weight, who knew?),  helps you burn more calories throughout the day, and makes you a happier person overall (that grumpy guy at work? He’s not mad it’s Monday, he’s just hangry).  The list goes on… So while we stress the importance of eating breakfast, remember to keep in mind that it’s what you choose that can make or break the point of the meal.

Breakfast of Champions: Read on and see what our Flywheel instructors eat to get the energy and nutrition to power them through class and the rest of their day.  Continue Reading

Laurie Cobb and FlyBarre instructor Brandon Goodman

My love affair with Flywheel began several months ago when I found an article on a local fitness blog. Up until that point in my weight-loss journey, I had been Grouponing my way through the NYC fitness scene, continuously going to classes, never quite finding one I couldn’t live without. I became interested in Flywheel because of the technology. I am a numbers girl both in life and work, so this seemed like something right up my alley. Then I read that Flywheel is “the workout that lights the fire.” I hadn’t even stepped foot inside the stadium, yet I was already hooked.
