spinning!

effalunt Posts: 333 Joined: 2002/10/17	2003/06/09, 02:16 AM As a part of my "pre-pre competition program" I'm trying to up my cardio a little and decided to give spinning a go. It's so intense that it's crazy because I'm too competitive to let the person beside me outpedal me. The only problem is that my butt is bruised because there's not enough cushion left on my glutes! I didn't think I'd like it, but I do, and I know it's going to help my on my slow summer lean out. -------------- Think you can or think you can't; either way you're right--Goethe

I would shake your hand if I could. They sell bike seat covers that have extra cushion in them, you might want to invest in one. -------------- I will lift my own weight someday!!!!!

I don't actually enjoy the class that much, maybe a 6 on a ten point scale--it's the endorphins that kick in that I'm hooked on. -------------- Think you can or think you can't; either way you're right--Goethe
