cycles
Rounds that recur
Cycles is the plural of cycle—a series of events that repeats in the same order: the cycles of the seasons, business cycles, sleep cycles.
In exercise, cycles often refers to stationary bikes or spinning equipment: The gym just got new cycles.
As a verb form, cycles means to ride a bicycle or to move through phases: She cycles to work, The thermostat cycles on and off.
