RateYourBurn | Fitness instructors & trainers, reviews of Grant Belton

I had been really excited to take Grant's fly 45 class after hearing amazing things about him as an instructor (he is a sort of Flywheel "superstar") but was ultimately disappointed. I'm not sure...

As a Flywheel newbie, I signed up for this class pretty scared. Which was only exacerbated after reading Grant's reviews. What was I getting into? But this class was both challenging and very...

I am OBSESSED with Flywheel. I started doing it in another state, so I am familiar with the general flow of the classes. But this was my first ride in NYC and the class with Grant definitely has...

Grant teaches a crazy-hard class and I get my highest power numbers with him.  That said, there is something quite manageable about the torq/RPMs combos he uses.  Instead of suddenly going from a...

I started going to Grant's Friday evening class a few weeks ago.  His classes are so hard but I find myself smiling throughout the class... when I'm not silently weeping because he just told...

After an emotionally-scarring first class with Grant about 10 months ago (in no way his fault, just one of those perfect-storm situations wherein nothing goes well and I was left feeling...

Grant is now one of my favorite all-time instructors.  After Steven Little moved to LA to help open Fly's LA studios, I was really concerned about who they would tap to fill his weekday AM classes....

Grant's quieter than other FlyWheel instructors, but that doesn't mean his class isn't just as intense. One of the things I like about Grant is that the numbers he calls out for RPMs are often...

Grant Belton's Torq Challenge class at FWS is incredible. Grant executes his classes with surgical precision,from the torq numbers, to the RPMs, to the music, every second is choreographed and...

Every time I leave Grant's class I think that he is secretly trying to kill me.  His class is hard, and I mean HARD.  If you want to get results, and get them fast, there is no instructor better...

Grant's classes are perfect for the person who says they don't want to be screamed at by the instructor. His tempo, pacing, and instruction are right on point and delivered in the calmest, coolest...

My first Flywheel class was with Grant B., and Grant was amazing: extremely helpful with setting up my bike, giving me instructions on positions, and reinforcing me to stay motivated and do my...

As a SoulCycle worshipper who pounds the candlelit koolaid 5X a week, I have to say I loved this class! I really liked Grant's no nonsense vibe and high torque technique. I realized after the...

So, I won't get into a whole lecture about my view on Fly here.  Please refer to my studio-specific post for my thoughts on Fly's method and studio space: <a...

Hands down, Sunday's 515pm Torq Challenge is the best class of the week at FW - taught by the best instructor there. Grant's 6am's are fantastic, and increase in intensity as the week...

I've had a love / hate relationship with FlyWheel.  On one hand I LOVE the torq board / power concept, the scheduling (so many classes), and stadium seating.  On the other hand, the...

I took a fly 60 class with Grant and I have to say that he is extremely professional, butt kicking and spot on with timing.  What I think I valued most about his class were the intervals....

So my first class ever at Flywheel was with Grant, and was the Torq challenge. Back then, I weighed 30 lbs more than I do today. I was naive, a delicate flower about to get my booty handed to me...

I have now taken 3 Grant classes, and in each one I have pushed myself to some of my top 2 scores.
The bad (or weak) first: Grant does lack charisma of most instructors.  With...

Grant's classes (in general) are by far the most challenging rides at Flywheel - and I mean this in a good way. The Torq Challenge, especially, pushes you to limits and enables you to...

I have been an avid spinner for 10 years and I have to say that Grant is the best instructor that I have ever had!!!!  He creates challenging rides that make you want to come back for more.  I have...

Grant teaches an hour long class on the UWS -- where it's easy to get a bike.  Grant's expectations are clear, he doesn't shout at you, and that thing he does -- the "bup, bup, bup" thing -- get's...

I'm new to spinning and to Flywheel. I've now taken class with 5 of their instructors. Grant has an excellent, professional vibe. He might be the only spin teacher in NYC who doesn't shout, but...

Grant was my first Flywheel instructor (MONTHS ago), and the reason I am completely hooked!

I have turned into quite the Flywheel addict. The turning point is that I now wear the cult like FLY bracelet, and I now feel like everyone who knows me thinks all I can talk about is how much I...

Fly60 is an intense 60 minute class that pushes you to the extreme and I love that.
Grant is an excellent teacher who really choreographics his routine to GREAT music.  I loved that 3 times during...

I have taken classes with almost all the instructors at FlyWheel, and while there are a lot of great instructors, I really try to go to Grant's class whenever possible.  I will even go to a 6am...

I need to resort to Latin superlatives to describe properly Grant's abilities as a spin instructor.  Needless to say, I am a devoted Grant follower, regularly attending his classes when my schedule...

On Grant:

Ripped black guy, very methodical, tons of cues. Three great ingredients for a killer teacher. He def made me work my butt off. The only thing that’s keeping Grant from stardom, in my...

I have been a devoted student of Grant for over a year now, and I take 90 percent of his classes. We can easily use the word "addicted" when speaking of how much I enjoy his classes at...

I came to the Torq-Challenge after having taken Grant at 6am for a few weeks in a row. My first impression leaving class is that Grant is quite possibly one of the most versatile spin instructors...
