Latin Interval Spin
This is a
Cycling pattern from
www.turnstep.com.
(pattern 15365)
The music has a Latin theme throughout, but the style of the music changes from song to song. I have written what I do below each song. I tend to use the chorus for changes and add resistance throughout the song. After the warm up, the heart rate goes up and down, ranging from 70-92 %-hence, an interval ride.

70-75 % HR

I use the 1/2 time beat for this song.
