Thanks

Joyce, if you want to go here, it should clear up some things for you. :) It is doing cycling on a stationary bike and the instructor changes it up, making you do different types of exercises. The link can explain it better than I can! Quote:

Thanks | I think it is great everyone is getting involved in this! I haven't gone yet as I am waiting until I lose a little more wait, but once I do, WATCH OUT!
Are you others enjoying it? I really can't wait to start it. :biggrin1:

I absolutely love spinning! I can't wait for my next class. I took class on Tuesday and they had one last night, but I didn't want to go back to back and kill myself! Tonight I'm working with my trainer so hopefully I'll be able to take fridays class!

I love spinning. I have been doing it for a few years now! Super workout! You'll love it once you get your rear used to the seat! Enjoy!!!

the seats are smaller, I thought that riding the precor bikes for a couple weeks before I started spin would help, but I was wrong!

you totally won't look like an idiot, it's a great class for beginners because you can fake the tension if it gets to be too much, or you can just sit back and cycle slowly. I still can't do everything the instructor is calling for, but I know I'm getting a great workout! The other think that I like about it is usually the spin classes turn the lights out and blast the music, so I know nobodys looking at my butt jiggle!
