SusieQ2019 567 Posted June 27, 2019 You can purchase the shoes if spinning is going to be a part of your regular workout routine , so I would say hold off until you are sure. Most people do not have the cycle shoes or butt pads. Cycling places like Sole cycle and Crank rents the shoes. 2 Cheeseburgh and Deedee12 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can cycle with regular gym shoes until you are sure it's something you are going to be doing frequently.Mousecat was the first to alert me that there are butt pads![emoji28][emoji28] After a few weeks of regular spinning, everything that hurts improves.

mousecat88 2,281 Posted July 3, 2019 I go to spinning 3 times a week now! I bought the cycling shoes for my second class. I have plantar fasciitis and my foot was in so much pain using regular gym shoes that they were necessary; now I have no pain. I also don't use the butt pads anymore. lol. I just have perma-sore-booty. *shrug* Love it. 1 Cheeseburgh reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheeseburgh 3,080 Posted July 3, 2019 Thanks for everyone’s feedback, I’m going to give it a try when I get back from vacation. I did do an easy level 20 minute spin bike cardio workout Monday and it went better than I expected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
