In this episode, my guest James Kent and I nerd out on the anatomy of spin. We talk about the different muscles used during a pedal stroke, and how your body adapts to an exercise like spin.  We also touch on how listening to music while exercising doesn’t just relieve boredom — it can help improve the quality of your workout by increasing your stamina and putting you in a better mood.
