What should I wear to SoulCycle?
SoulCycle recommends “form-fitting pants or shorts,” and we suggest the latter if you want to spend the class wincing as your thighs chafe against the seat. SoulCycle sells athletic tights in the studio lobby—which would eliminate this problem—but that would require arriving a bit early to procure some.
Is SoulCycle a good workout?
SoulCycle is an enormously popular spin studio with classes that test your endurance and strength with resistance- and speed-based HIIT and lightweight training. Thanks to all those intervals, the workout boosts cardio endurance, burns major calories, and tones muscles while still going easy on your joints.
Is the SoulCycle bike worth it?
Its sturdy and streamlined hardware and inspirational classes make it one of the most compelling Peloton competitors I’ve tested, along with the $1,399 MYX II. At $1,950 plus $40 per month for a class membership, SoulCycle costs $500 more than the entry-level Peloton Bike.
Is SoulCycle hard for beginners?

Do you have to bring your own shoes to SoulCycle?
No. We offer shoe rentals at all studios in the USA for $3 and $2 CAD in Canada. You are of course welcome to bring your own though. We recommend Look Delta clips, but our pedals are also SPD compatible.
Does spinning slim your legs?

Are Peloton classes like SoulCycle?
SoulCycle was definitely a more fun way to work out, and if you don’t like working out alone, this is the option for you. However, Peloton was the overall winner.

Four of the showers have doors that can be completely shut while one is closed with a curtain. The studio offers white towels, SoulCycle brand shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, and a small stool inside the shower. So yes: Cycling before work is totally possible.
