Step into the Ride room and you’ll feel it instantly. The bass drops, the lights pulse, and suddenly you’re not just one person on a bike. In the Ride studio, you’ll find yourself sprinting harder, climbing heavier, and pushing further than you thought you could. Why? Because the team is behind you.
Herd Mentality
We’re wired to move as a group. When we’re surrounded by others doing the same thing, we naturally match their energy - and the energy in Ride never quits. In Ride, that means keeping pace with the rhythm of the room, even when your legs are screaming. The collective drive drowns out the inner voice that wants you to stop.
Mirror Neurons
Ever noticed that when the rider next to you increases their resistance, you do too? It’s all thanks to mirror neurons, the brain cells that make us copy what we see. When the rider next to you turns it up a notch, your brain gets the signal to do the same. The energy then spreads, and suddenly the whole room is flying. So, when you see the person next to you going all-in, your brain literally mirrors their intensity.
Accountability
Accountability and encouragement are secret weapons in the Ride room. When you’re surrounded by the team, you’re less likely to ease off, as the energy of the group keeps you focused. Exercising with others naturally holds you accountable, helping you ride stronger and stay locked in.
Strength in Belonging
Exercising together also hits a deeper need of belonging as group training boosts motivation and consistency. And let’s be honest, it’s just more fun. You get to see friends, catch up before class, and celebrate the wins together (Prosecco Fridays, anyone?).
Bottom line? Alone, you might be strong. But together, you’ll push yourself so much further.
Book a Ride and feel the energy for yourself.
