A 1,300-square-foot indoor cycling and fitness center officially opened in Lakewood Ranch this weekend, offering an indoor studio for area cyclists and those looking for a fun strength and conditioning workout.
Spin Fit, located at 6277 Lake Osprey Drive, opened Saturday, Oct. 13.
"I've been cycling for over 10 years and I've taught at different place and people always said 'Why not open your own place," said owner Sandy Birczak. "My dream is here."
Spin Fit is equipped with 20 indoor cycling bikes in one room and half a dozen suspension weight training devices in the other. The facility will be open seven days a week, beginning as early as 5:30 a.m. into the late evening.
"There's not really an indoor (cycling) facility in this area," Birczak said. "I really want to target this area."
A certified fitness instructor the last 12 years, Birczak said an hour of her cycling workout can burn anywhere between 500 to 800 calories. She also plans to run a separate clinic and boot camp for those looking for more advanced workout and an 'Easy Rider' class for mature clients in the Lakewood Ranch area.
"Members want to be challenged so as an instructor, I will offer challenges to them," she said.
