The creator of the Spinning indoor cycling program, the one & only Johnny G, doing what he does best on & off the bike in Miami Beach, FL in April 2003.
So spiritually bewitching! The tone of his voice, what he says, the beats in the background music (tribal drums). "Let go" he says, if the subjects only knew.
I don' t know how many times I watched the whole playlist, such an inspiration. I see some people reacting like "wtf"'; "who is this dude";... Simply the pioneer of Spinning, leading to the right mindset for the best experience possible. Sometimes you might think this is useless or too much and you need loud songs and "happy" classes but not only, this is the basis! love it
Simply the master of Spinning, thats the way I try to start my classes, motivating my fellow bikers and trying to reach the best concentration level to end up with a perfect intense training. Love it, I can watch this intro over and over again
caro johnny, la tua pedalata e le tue tecniche continuano ancor oggi a scatenare energia ed emozioni!!! grazie per aver partorito questa grande disciplina. mimmo from italy
I have been practicing spinning for 6 years and never had an instructor that spent half of the class talking. The idea is to be motivated and feel energetic from the beginning to the end. The music almost made me cry. I agree with JorgeDox, that video was like Yoga.
Gracias Johny G...tus logros y enseñanzas..me has engrandecido profesionalmente....Mi país se ha desarrollado más en actividades que tu promoviste y por cada actividad...obtengo mi preparación para dar lo nuevo del acondicionamiento físico. Soy tu fiel y agradecida admiradora.
None of you get it! I started with Johnny before the spin bike was invented. This WAS a spiritual experience. We were triathletes, we were riders of real bikes. Our best ride was when the power went out in a rain storm so he lit candles, used a boom box and we rode during a lightening and thunder storm. None of you will ever feel this joy of riding. Poor You!
I´m a graduated P.E. teacher and Spinning instructor. In the beginning I used to take only the physical part. But I saw many good mind things in the martial arts, I practice karate and I’m Buddhist. So I thought "why not bring that kind of mind work to spinning?", visualization, concentration. My sessions are now crowded with people not only caring about exercise, but trying to forget a stressful day, and trying to feel good with themselves through exercise, and through mind relaxing. Cheers!
lo mas ridiculo aqui es ver tanta envidia ... en fin cada quien se ve reflejado como puede y como quiere , para mi el es un excelente lider ,atleta,emprendedor y ademas encontro una forma de ayudar a los demas inspirando...Spinning de Johnny G es la mejor opcion =)
Yes, please show more Respect. If you don't like what he is doing, you don't have to be here, don't look; it's all about free choice! Alot of these comments are coming from a place of hate. Too bad, for those commenting: you have really missed the mark (point). He is a great athlete as witnessed by his record, and such an inspiration. Thank you Johhny G for doing what you do!
i'm a spinning instructor and i don't think its cool to critisize any other instructor because all instructors has a unique way of teaching and motivating people, and secondly this guy is johnny G the man that invented spinning so , he created something great, some people prefer funcky, rocky, and shouty instructors and thats your own choice, but it does not mean its better believe me,
Buenas tardes, en este tipo de disciplina la música juega un papel importante porque es fuente de inspiración y concentración. me gustaría saber que piezas musicales son las que aparecen en el video.
I kind of agree, but where I live, the roads are covered in snow six months of the year. Going to a spin class makes riding a stationary bike at least marginally interesting.
He is a Race Across America champion what you think ?He knows everything about cyckling ! Just do the same what he does already and let we see may be you'll be the same like him
@baggedyman I thought about that (electricity) too, but there aren't enough watts generated. It's better to just warm up the house in winter with the body heat and switch off the heating (but you would probably have to do at least a 3 hour workout).
@foleybarbarian The original idea of Spinning class is the communication between body and spirit in the exercise. So it truly is a physical and psychological class. It’s proven that a mind stimulated by music and positive thoughts can make the body work much harder than usual. The problem is that teachers don´t take the psychological part seriously, only the physical, so most people are not used to a more concentrating and spiritual kind of class. Exercise is not only body, bud mind and spirit.
I have watched this video several times and I am convinced that I am seeing a subtle form of mind control and I'm caustious about his approach,I have been teaching spinning for fourteen years,so I know what i am talking about,if I tick off some of master G's clones I'm sorry but the truth hurts!
I lost 53 lbs in 2019 with this entire playlist (1-8). Yeah, it's zen (which I could do without) with a gimmick. But it works. Like being in a class room with other spinners. Ads can be disrupting though. But try it, you'll like it. Besides, it's FREE.
@s2fitness I second that! He (Johnny) is the creator of indoor spinning. You will be surprised at how many people (that take spinning and have been taking spinning for years) actually DON'T KNOW THAT! How are we going to tell this man how to sit, do his movements.. etc, when he is the creator of it? That's like a podiatrist trying to tell a brain surgeon how to do his job. Now I have to admit, it does look like he don't have no neck sometimes when he's riding. But other than that Johnny Rocks!
@johntherockdotcom You don't have to take Johnny g seriously physically. The important part about this class is the psychological. Of course a lot of movements are wrong, I wouldn’t make that in my training sessions, but the concentration and mind work he talks about is very very important. Spinning is not only exercise. Half of it is psychological training. And the best way to practice exercise is when you feel good internally (not only body). So his idea works the way to feel good in training
I use a couple of the spinning tracks in my classes for long flats and for some great gnarly hills - I tried using volume 10 for a whole class and they quickly lost interest. some were able to connect and enjoy the ride - but I wouldnt recommend using this for an entire class.
@Sirkanythe wel your heart and lungs will get stronger and also some of the muscles u use for running, but its not the most efficient way to train for running..
@bluebirdsin Or ridden a real bike for exercise. I used to ride my mountain bike 10 miles a day on weekdays so I could ride 25 miles on Saturday and/or Sunday. I just got a spinner and there is no electricity generation taking place here or on the road.
My class would walk out or be ready to slit their wrists if I started them off like this. they come for a workout and not so much for meditation. this would would great for a cool down but starting out of the gate so slowly would spell disaster for me. /this mind/body meditative type of profile is good but you've got to set the mood to keep them coming back for more. this works for some but not for most
Dont worry about offending them. I saw people in spinning classes in the winter, and all thru the summer thats all they did was spin, I dont get it. It's gotta be almost as bad as being on some kind of trainer/rollers. I see its something to do in the winter but not when you can ride a real bike. Oh well, to each his own. Some people will buy into anything I guess. A good point is you cant get run over or flat.
@Change438 ...DUDE...Get a grip.....Its not a CULT.....It is a style that Johnny does that is all.......but he never puts you in positons or does stuff to get anyone hurt....Everyone does there own style.....This is his style....Get over yourself.......
well, that moving around was weird for sure and it does a have cult-feeling to it. But, all the vulgar comments say nothing more than the people who are saying them are vulgar. No one should be mad at that. Real criticism always takes the form of "what is wrong based on the specifics of the sport". Those that are vulgar is because they can't help it. Their punishment is being who they are. If you try to correct them, you are doing them a favor. So, people don't!!!. Let them be ignorant and vulgar…...
is he the guy that spoke on the song thats on about wearing sunscreen??....this would not motivate me, or would i use it in my classes! just plain weird!
Dude, you're leading a spin class. You're not a franciscan monk. Mash the pedals and get on with it. If I led my spin classes like that I'd want someone to slap me off my bike. FFS.
Robin Williamson Johnny Goldberg created modern indoor spinning, this guy has forgotton more about cycling than most most people will ever know. This was not intended as an "average" spin class, it was a chance for people to train with the pioneer of the industry.
Been a spinning instructor for 23 years, his videos still blow my mind.
So spiritually bewitching! The tone of his voice, what he says, the beats in the background music (tribal drums). "Let go" he says, if the subjects only knew.
Go Johnny Go Thank you so much for the most wonderfull time spent on the Spinning!!!
I don' t know how many times I watched the whole playlist, such an inspiration. I see some people reacting like "wtf"'; "who is this dude";... Simply the pioneer of Spinning, leading to the right mindset for the best experience possible.

I usually get my class laughing. That helps them relax. I'd be laughing in this class too. :-D
I didn't know I could become a Jedi just by taking his class! LOL!
lo mas ridiculo aqui es ver tanta envidia ... en fin cada quien se ve reflejado como puede y como quiere , para mi el es un excelente lider ,atleta,emprendedor y ademas encontro una forma de ayudar a los demas inspirando...Spinning de Johnny G es la mejor opcion =)

Gosh! That spiritual guidance makes me want to sleep! I started doing spinning because of the Hi-energy music!

I'm great friends with him. He's really nice. So is his daughter. He's a great man.
This video motivated me to go watch something else.
Tenho uma bike de spinning e uso os videos do Johnny G para treinar.
É o máximo.Just spinning....
Please, show more RESPECT......LIVE, LOVE RIDE
This video just inspired me to find my real dad.
i'm a spinning instructor and i don't think its cool to critisize any other instructor because all instructors has a unique way of teaching and motivating people, and secondly this guy is johnny G the man that invented spinning so , he created something great, some people prefer funcky, rocky, and shouty instructors and thats your own choice, but it does not mean its better believe me,
Love his words. Inspirational.
He must be doing something right if there are 730,613 views and a full class everyday all day.
Easy answer to that: people are sheep.
do you know that this is The creator of the Spinning indoor cycling program Johnny G?
This dude is like cracked out
soooooo right! ;)
spinning rules!
Buenas tardes, en este tipo de disciplina la música juega un papel importante porque es fuente de inspiración y concentración. me gustaría saber que piezas musicales son las que aparecen en el video.
actually, i used to present with Johnny G back in the day! so, i know enough.
Do I need a helmet ? Mum says yes.
I kind of agree, but where I live, the roads are covered in snow six months of the year. Going to a spin class makes riding a stationary bike at least marginally interesting.
He is a Race Across America champion what you think ?He knows everything about cyckling !
Just do the same what he does already and let we see may be you'll be the same like him
@baggedyman I thought about that (electricity) too, but there aren't enough watts generated. It's better to just warm up the house in winter with the body heat and switch off the heating (but you would probably have to do at least a 3 hour workout).
I just spin while watching a movie on my flat screen.
i cant do that.either watch a movie or workout.cant do both at same time
is this exercise good for the abs or is it primarily for the lower body?
can you tell me the playlist songs..
thankssssssss

All of those bikers are spinning instructors somewhere the sistah at 2:26 is an instructor at Bally's now LA fitness right outside DC
can you tell me the playlist songs..
I would like to feel like a champion who came through pain seperation and loss! Rather than feel like I just sat on an excersise bike for 30mins lol
I'm so glad my spinning class like this. This class is truely creepy. Can you say CULT?
He's the Richard Simmons of spinning
titulo, nombre de la musica?

they're powering the willy wonka factory.

@humbledrumah That's cause he was levitating the bike with his mind.
no arguing. How do you tell the inventer how run their invention?
estan muy padres tu video pon les le llenda en epañol porfavor ya que ya compre mi bicicleta
What's up with the head moving left and right? Reminds me of the snake cult in Conan the Barbarian.
I use a couple of the spinning tracks in my classes for long flats and for some great gnarly hills - I tried using volume 10 for a whole class and they quickly lost interest. some were able to connect and enjoy the ride - but I wouldnt recommend using this for an entire class.
@Simaster Almost no one does classes like this. This freaks me out and I used to have a great spinning instructor.
I agree ecosse80
hahahahah this shit made me laugh
is that borrats grandad " YOU LIKE TO COME CYCLE WITH ME THATS RIGHT JUST LEAN FORWARD ON THE BIKE LIKE YOU IS GIVING YOU KNOW WHAT " please
And BTW why the hell is there such a thing as spining in Miami? Super bicycle conditions year around - crazy!
This is just plan strange...... I'm under a trance and a little frightened.
Why is he swaying from side to side?
wtf?????
this man is damn crazy agggggg
@trlade Haha! Excellent comment!
So spinning build stamina...but would your body still be condition to run?
When is Spinning Class now a psychology Class?
is he the new spinning GURU??? :))))
@Sirkanythe wel your heart and lungs will get stronger and also some of the muscles u use for running, but its not the most efficient way to train for running..
When i saw the title i thought it was johnny vegas!! johnny can pedal faster and dosent need stabilisers!!! and he is in better shape ie a circle!!
The word is Yes, say it a million times, say it a million more times and the word you'd've said two-million times is YES!
the pirate lady with the sunglasses is hot
@bluebirdsin
Or ridden a real bike for exercise. I used to ride my mountain bike 10 miles a day on weekdays so I could ride 25 miles on Saturday and/or Sunday. I just got a spinner and there is no electricity generation taking place here or on the road.
riding a bike is a different working from spinning classes.
My class would walk out or be ready to slit their wrists if I started them off like this. they come for a workout and not so much for meditation. this would would great for a cool down but starting out of the gate so slowly would spell disaster for me. /this mind/body meditative type of profile is good but you've got to set the mood to keep them coming back for more. this works for some but not for most
Start watching at 2:05 and spare yourself the crazy existential mumbo-jumbo.
fu@king funny
@kdrtap No, it's more like yoga on a bike.
dont want to get cold, drenched, or squashed by a bus.
Dont worry about offending them. I saw people in spinning classes in the winter, and all thru the summer thats all they did was spin, I dont get it. It's gotta be almost as bad as being on some kind of trainer/rollers. I see its something to do in the winter but not when you can ride a real bike. Oh well, to each his own.

sort us a draw down snail johnny mate

Why not use these things to create electricity?

@jcspindrum I feel very sorry for you.
is he the guy that spoke on the song thats on about wearing sunscreen??....this would not motivate me, or would i use it in my classes! just plain weird!
Wow. Um I spin and im like still in elementry school. and um. this guy is NOTHING like my instructor. I go where spinning is fun!
guru ka ka(poop)
It's called going out and riding a real bike folks. Bet you that room stinks from all the sweat. Plus these folks live in Miami! Just sayin
Hey, I have a bike and and ipod. I think ill hit the road. Spinning is such a crock o' shit.
Selfism...the drug that began in the garden...
@rbonilla18 "Kind of?" He's SERIOUSLY weird.
@keiichibc Yeah, it's called "The Most Boring Music to Cycle To."
Dude, you're leading a spin class. You're not a franciscan monk. Mash the pedals and get on with it. If I led my spin classes like that I'd want someone to slap me off my bike. FFS.
Robin Williamson Johnny Goldberg created modern indoor spinning, this guy has forgotton more about cycling than most most people will ever know. This was not intended as an "average" spin class, it was a chance for people to train with the pioneer of the industry.
Hahahaha. I guess he's taking the Zen approach to cycling ... I guess! But like you, get on with it for crying out loud.
look like a cult to me!
@jj77019 No not even for a cool-down. They look like some sort of cult, all going nowhere. I had heard about him but never knew it was this weird.
