Spinning at last!!!!!!

I have been a member of LA Fitness for years -- probably 8 years.

I have watched the Spinning class from afar -- always too afraid that I could not keep up.

They opened a new gym (closer to my house, yeah!!!) a few weeks ago and my membership let's me attend there.

Last Monday, I was there on the eliptical and realized that the Spinning class was about to start, and it was not full.  So I did it--- I peeked in and the instructor was so nice.

She helped me set my bike just right and encouraged me along and I made it through the whole class.
I went back on Wednesday and then again tonight!!

I feel so proud of myself for trying something that was scary and new! 

We hiked this weekend -- and I felt like my quads were stronger already!!!

Congrats!  I've been doing spin since Feb and I love it for pushing me. When I first started I was probably 250 and I couldn't stand up for as long as directed nor do all the jumps.  But in 4-6 weeks and being pounds lighter, and going 2-3 times a week...I'm in there keeping up with everyone else. I encourage anyone interested to give it a try...work it at your pace.

 Yeah Kath!!  I do RPM which is the Les Mills version of Spin.   I use it instead of running for my cardio.  It is a great and challenging class.  wtg!!

Way to go! I can't imagine.
