Thanks for that DQ, much appreciated. If my thread title isn't 'The Spinnin'Chronicles' now could you (in the inimitable words of Cpt Picard) 'make it so'

Hi Helen,
I have done spinning classes at my current weight and heavier and I loved it! Just go at your own pace, you don't have to increase the intensity on the bike if you don't want to.
Everyone is there for the same reason to get fit so please don't be put off by your size. Go for it!!!

HelenG · 29th January, 2007

So the very abbreviated version.....
I went, (well prepared - two pairs of shorts, ltr bottle of water, clean towel)

I cycled, (after having the embarrasment of having to take the instructor's bike 'cause the others were all taken)

I re-booked for next week (I must be nuts

)
My legs have just stopped shaking - I got home at 7.35pm

ONwards and DOWNwards

Helen, you'll not only lost lbs but tone up at the same time - you can't lose (or sit down!!!).

I meant what I said, I am enquiring tomorrow about spinning classes at our local leisure centre - I've got my gel removable seat and extra padded shorts!

Happe · 29th January, 2007

Good on ya helen for going, was it a really good work out? Did you get to programme the bike for calories burned and all that? You are so brave.

HelenG · 30th January, 2007

I did kinda enjoy the class

I'm definately going again next week.

The bikes don't have any programming, just a dial that you turn to increase the resistance.

AmandaJayne, I hope you find a spinning class at your leisure centre - the only reason I got to go to a class was because the classes are part of the membership of the gym.

It was because of the encouragement I got from you folks on here that made me go tonight - so thanks

I think

Gotta go to bed now! The only reason I'm still up is I'm not sure I can manage the stairs (Our bedroom is in the attic)

Night all

Happe · 30th January, 2007

Hi Helen, hows the legs today? can you walk?LOL

HelenG · 30th January, 2007

Hi Happe

Actually, I'm very surprised that my legs aren't as bad as I thought they would be - but I am kna***rd!

I am glad I took the advice about the padding, my inside thighs would have been rubbed raw if I hadn't

No formal exercise for me tonight so I walked home from town with the groceries (one & a half miles).

Hope all's well with you - am just going to catch up with your thread
