Cycling Studio in Arlington, MA

What inspired you to start Momentum?

Momentum is inspired by a few simple ideas. When thoughtfully designed, indoor cycling workouts benefit athletes and aspiring fitness enthusiasts of all fitness levels. In other words, indoor cycling is an effective workout for athletes who compete in a sport where cardio and endurance are important for success and for folks who just want to lead an active and healthy lifestyle. It’s highly impactful and accessible.

‍

We’re motivated to innovate classic ideas while also going back to the future. Indoor cycling originated from the need for road bike simulation (decades ago). Athletes needed year-round training, structured workouts that simulated race terrains, and data to get insights into their performance. Today, regarding helping athletes get impactful results, we believe that most cycling studios miss the mark because they are primarily focused on easy-to-follow choreography, gimmicky strength training moves, and cookie-cutter programming.

‍

We believe athletes and aspiring athletes need something different. We’re three fitness trainers who are enthusiastic about working together to build the momentum experience and create workouts that will help folks looking to improve their sports performance and also those looking to win the long game by choosing a healthy lifestyle. We believe we can accomplish all that by empowering our excellent cycling instructors to lead workouts that are efficient, enjoyable, and super effective.

What are you most excited for in the first year of Momentum?

We’re most excited to build a community of people who feel connected and supported. In the past five years, it’s been tough to feel like a social human. We’re enthusiastic about bringing people back together to have fun doing cardio workouts. Doing cardio alone can feel boring. When you bring a group of like-minded people together to workout, that's when things become fun and you experience the feeling of camaraderie.

What do you hope the community gains from this studio?

We hope the surrounding community feels like they have gained a small business that values making smart and responsible decisions that mutually work well for its customers (our members), employees (fitness trainers), and business owners. We are proud to be a small business that is local, independently owned, and women-led. We are enthusiastic about sharing our combined years of experience in the fitness industry to build momentum into a place where like-minded people can share experiences and channel their positive energy.
