Mine isn't air conditioned either makes it tougher but feels more like you worked for it at least

Good luck xx

Congratulations!!! Yeah, I don't envy you that, good news is, it only lasts about 3 classes so you're a third of the way there I got the padded shorts. They don't stop it hurting, but its not as bad, and sports direct had them for 70% off.

Will you be going again?

 

[OpalLilyEats]

Do you actually get used to it?! I don't know if that worries me more! I'm sure ill be walking funny tomorrow!

I think I'll def go again! It's hard to get a place though in the class unless you book straight away, I was just fortunate because a lot of people are on holiday - def need to get more organised if its going to become part of the routine!!

I'd say if I do a lot of classes, the shorts might be a good investment! Only if I don't get used to it!!xxx

Yeah, you do get used to it, I suppose it's like anything, you learn to compensate with other muscles...if you aren't fussed on the idea of the shorts (it is sort of odd to start with), you can get the seat covers instead, I just didn't want to take the chance that I'd buy one that didn't fit the seats at my class.
I've been lucky with booking as my slimming world consultant arranged it and the place I go to block book 6 weeks at a time, so I haven't had to worry about that. Once my 6 weeks are up though, I might go to the local gym (I'm a member so get free classes) and it'll probably be the same.

I've been spinning for a few weeks too...

I bought a gel filled seat cover as it hurt so bad!

Not my favorite gym class but its good to have a change now and again...

Yay! U got the bug then? I missed my class on Thursday cuz I had a migraine and I'm itching to get back to it. Signed up for another 6 weeks when my current course is up, so that should take me up to almost the end of September

Not quite sure if I've got the bug... but want to try a few more to see my technique/fitness improve!

I think my bum's only just recovered, it was still sore sitting down on Saturday!!
