Spinning

Does anyone else here have a spinning addiction? I think there was another thread about spinning some time back but I thought I would start a new one and see if there are still spinners out there. For me, I am totally addicted. I have taken 5 classes this week alone. For anyone thinking about try it - I was not in good shape when I started 3 months ago and was very nervous about keeping up but it worked out fine for me!

What is spinning?

It is indoor cycling on special bikes (a group fitness class) it is set to music and really fun, burns tons of calories.

I watched people spin as I was on the elliptical this morning and was wondering...........Am I in shape enough to do that? So tell me, how is it?

i'm a spin fan. no form of exercise makes me sweat quite so much. sadly, i haven't been able to get to a lunch hour class. work keeps getting in the way and i've lately devoted evenings to tennis.

for anyone considering spinning, do go. don't be afraid, but do be prepared for your, um, privates to hurt the first couple of times. if you get into it, consider buying a pair of padded bike shorts (just don't wear undies at the same time; you'll chafe.)

am getting banded on 3/3. am curious to know how quickly y'all got back on the bike post surgery. do tell.
