So I took a spinning class last night ... - GoFuckYourself.com

AZSarah · 06-28-2007, 08:23 AM

And I feel like I still have the bicycle seat up my ass.
Great class though, I sweated more than I sweat in kickboxing

Anyone else do spinning classes?

Juicy D. Links · 06-28-2007, 08:25 AM

I can show you a better way to "sweat"

Screaming · 06-28-2007, 08:25 AM

Spinning is the greatest exercise class I've ever taken!

Ice · 06-28-2007, 08:39 AM

I've taken them before... best workout for your time IMO

First class I took I thought I was going to puke

Monique Niccole · 06-28-2007, 08:41 AM

I LOVE spinning. I have a class this afternoon actually. The first couple of times you go, you'll hate it and want to kill your instructor, the bike, random people. But once you get into the groove, it's an amazing workout and you'll love it.

Sosa · 06-28-2007, 08:49 AM

why can't they make soft seats for the bikes? therapudic or something

Noe · 06-28-2007, 08:55 AM

Those spin classes are great, I love them. Have you ever tried an ab class? They're amazing.

The first time we came off the seat, after about 5 minutes I thought that there was no way I was going to make it through the class... but by the end of it I was really glad I did. I will def be back for more!

I did about an hour on a bike once and I couldn't shit right for a week! Why can't they make a bike seat that feels like a hammock? That way you can be lazy while you work out, makes sense to me.

haha, I think you answered your own question in the last sentence...

The seat is so damn uncomfortable, that when it comes time to lift up, you are relieved to get your buns off that thing and you're not thinking about your legs being killed!

What the hell is spinning? If you're in AZ just go outside and do it I'm sure the triple digit temps will get some sweat out of you. Shit just walk back and forth to your car to the gym, gym to the car, car to the gym, gym to the car and you will be sweating like R. Kelly at a 5th grade spelling bee.

Anthony · 06-28-2007, 10:19 AM

Spinning is great, but it only works out the bottom half of your body.

I went and bought an airdyne, gets the whole body invovled.

Redmanthatcould · 06-28-2007, 10:19 AM

I prefer super frisbee at the park - it's pretty fun, and you are essentially just running around for the thing the whole time.

Can't really find anyone to play tennis with me since it's not quite as "pick-up-and-play" as frisbee is... so it's a decent surrogate.

What's an airdyne and does it violate your anus in order to operate?

I dont' have a problem with the seat I have, and if you need a wider one, it's easy to swap.

I found my airdyne to be easier on my knees and ankles, and still get a great cardio workout, whether HIIT or just distance. I can't handle the treadmill anymore.

WarChild · 06-28-2007, 11:39 AM

I don't know how anyone can say spinning is the best cardio. I've done a few classes and it doesn't hold a candle to carrying your own weight running on the street.

True, running is the best cardio that you can do, but spinning is great for people that need low impact.

Not much just shamelessly promoting myself across the globe as usual.
I will be featured next week on UK's ITV on a show called Hollywood Lives..
They shot an entire show around my TV show concept, Virgin Territory.

It's going to be hilarious.
Funnier than Dr. Phil.

Hopefully someone will post it after it airs

spinning classes are more like endurance training than fat burning training. Unless you aim from some high athlete standards, I'd stay away from it.

I'd stick with some constant movement, like running, eliptical or even bycicle but at a constant pace, that keeps your HR between the required limits.

Besides this, sweating amount is not a measure of eficiency. You train to lose fat, not water and minerals.

Your statement has some good points however I wouldn't totally agree. For example running intervals or sprints can help you burn three times as much fat as running at a slower consistent pace.

cj_purve · 06-28-2007, 07:33 PM

I nearly died the first time I did one of those!!!!
& they didn't like it when I lit up a cigarette on the bike LOL

OzMan · 06-28-2007, 09:51 PM

I wanted to try that but the rooms I see are jammed full of sweaty bodies so I figured they must have about 1% oxygen and be a bit much on the nose.

Don't forget swimming for low impact total body workout.

...and if you don't like getting wet there's this

Kellie · 06-28-2007, 11:32 PM

I'm really considering taking them at my gym. Might be good to do after my hour with my trainer.

Anya · 06-29-2007, 12:49 AM

Hi Sarah, I've been cycling for years and currently do spin 4-5 days a week, plus upper body workouts to keep myself evened out. I think it's the best stress reliever there is (well, for me).

However, you should consider buying a gel seat cover if you want to continue cycling regularly. Aside from it being easier on your bottom, it's all yours! I've seen too many people get off the bike without even a simple wipe of the saddle.

Considering how much a person can perspire during a one hour class, it's just more hygienic to use your own cover.

Another thing to consider if you plan on keeping this up long term, is to invest in a pair of cycling shoes where you can clip into the pedals. You'll feel a greater difference in how that will work your hamstrings.

Keep riding!

Get back on the bike!!!

Real men don't use jello seats. In my day when we went to spin classes we sat on rocks. Rocks that didn't even look like seats, they looked like Juicy's face! And we liked it, hell we even loved it!

Btw the way, your legs feel great, ours never felt like yours. I had a great time being your cover last class. Can I volunteer agian?

Pornwolf · 06-29-2007, 05:37 AM

Spinning is quite possibly the best aerobic exercise in the gym. Keep it up Sarah!

06-29-2007, 05:57 AM

you should all purchase padded bicycle shorts. You can pickup a really good pair for $40 to $50 that will solve the problem. The under $30 shorts are garbage and will not provide good padding...

you can also adjust the sit to angle back and up or angle down. Depending on how you sit, this also make a difference....

I can offer you my face for your next class!
