What new and exciting exercise craze do you get when you combine.....
A bicycle.. with ......
?
Well, you get Cycle Karaoke.. it's the latest craze to hit gyms in America. If you can't imagine how a typical workout session would be like, well just imagine this.. you're in a room full of other cyclists, your session will be like any other normal session, except this time, once you're done with some fast-paced pedalling, a karaoke screen lights up and a microphone is then passed to one lucky biker who takes the spotlight while cycling.
The main idea behind this is that the effort put into singing the words the person sees on the screen is meant to be a distraction from any physical strain they may be facing while cycling.
Kinda cool, but my only concern is.. what happens when you're in a class okay, all pumped up, ready to work it when * DA DA* a bunch of toneless-musically- challenged people start belting out numbers in an unbearably horrific manner? ( BTW, you have also just got out of work and all you want is some good ol' exercise time)
Worry not, you have options, yey , you could:
- Opt for "normal" cycling sessions/spin classes/ aerobics/ belly dancing/zumba okay basically anything that will help you avoid having to put up with a discordant and pointless mixture of sounds
- Go with a bunch of friends ( now that won't be annoying, you'll just end up laughing at each other and maybe even yourself)
- Never return for a Cycle Karaoke session again
