    Default How Else Loves Spinning?

    I started a month ago and can't get enough. I go about 4 times a week. I'm so into I'm worried I'm going to burn out fast. I've lost the last 5 pounds and really tighten up, this is the lowest fat percentage I've ever had. My arms also tightened up! One of the best things is that I can eat so much now without gaining and usually losing. I eat about 2,000 calories a day easy and sleep so much better. The music is like a nightclub in a gym. Anyone else a spinner?

    I believe Britney Ireland teaches spinning... so I assume she likes it.
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    I love it! Nothing makes me sweat like spin class does! Running on the treadmill hurts my hips, so it's a really good lower impact cardio workout. After spin class I like to go sit in the sauna and then take a long shower. Ahhh heaven..

    Yeah, I felt like I was gonna die in the beginning but you can go at your own pace. They don't want you stopping but you can set your resistance very low so you won't feel like you have to stop. Go for it; it's also a great adrenaline rush.

    I have a problem with the bikes my gym has for Spinning. I kept hitting my knees on the handlebars...I had pretty bad bruises on both knees the next day. I also had bruises on my inner thighs from the seat on the bike...that is probably the most uncomfortable seat I've ever used. No matter how I sat, it hurt--and I mean HURT, not just experiencing discomfort. The instructor had adjusted the bike for me herself, too. My fiancee says I need to give it another chance and have him adjust the seat for me, but I'm a little wary. I don't feel like having to walk funny for another three or four days.

    Love spinning... started several years ago. It probably is about time I get certified myself...it is an insane workout though, if you have a good instructor. And the vibe is badass.

    I'm another spin lover! For me it does depend on the instructor a lot though..
    Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

    I had the same problem with the handle bars, I just needed to move them back (adjustable knob) also you can get padded bike shorts for the seat. Make sure you come early and have them adjust your bike

    Power to ya ladies... I hate spin.. I just find it really boring. High impact aerobics like body attack is more my cup of tea.
