Aside from your knee pain, the fact that your quads were shaking makes me think your seat was too low. And she's also right about your nethers...the bike seat just takes some getting used to. Every spring when I get back out on my bike, I need a few rides before my body adjusts back to the bike seat and the posture.Magdalenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18209761826897063634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076179970011255850.post-49069188116511297462012-03-18T10:19:18.381-04:002012-03-18T10:19:18.381-04:00Having fun could be easy but having fun and making...Having fun could be easy but having fun and making yourself fit is much better than ever by just doing sports.<a href="http://sportssupply.com/Aerobics-Videos/" rel="nofollow">Aerobics-Videos</a>elev8https://www.blogger.com/profile/17919757363315463670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076179970011255850.post-77725706891577825262012-03-16T10:00:50.499-04:002012-03-16T10:00:50.499-04:00I've never taken an "ACTUAL" spin cl...I've never taken an "ACTUAL" spin class before! I watched a ton of videos online and have a spin bike at home so I try to recreate them but I know it's definitely not the same. I think my backside used to hurt more but it gets much better over time (at least for me)!<br />:)Vanessa @ Gourmet Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06927786555693446088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076179970011255850.post-8887437133023869892012-03-16T08:31:15.146-04:002012-03-16T08:31:15.146-04:00You are totally AWSOME!!

Don't waste your money. With your knees sounds like your seat needs to go a little higher ... I know if my seat is too low they ache.<br /><br />I so don't know what to do this month for my challenge ... gah!sammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09232983595172523741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076179970011255850.post-13789856423630527942012-03-15T12:52:19.815-04:002012-03-15T12:52:19.815-04:00You are crazy and far too kind.

After going 2x or more a week for the past 6 months the sit doesn't bother me. My husband always does the towel trick on our bike at home, but it doesn't bother me at all. <br /><br />I love the ability to make the workout yours!<br /><br />I have doubled up and down kickboxing after spin and it was tough. If I double up now I either run before or do hot yoga after. <br /><br />In our gym classes are different depending on if it's a Les Mills RPM (then its pretty prest for a couple of months) or a cycling - cycling the instructor gets to make up what they want that day. <br /><br />The instructor can make or break the class in my opinion.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00744683705291070700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076179970011255850.post-62908761440592261662012-03-14T22:55:44.039-04:002012-03-14T22:55:44.039-04:001.

Your spin teacher was awesome to take a pic. So cool.<br />3. If I double up, I always spin second.<br />4. I like that I can back off (and close my eyes) when I want to. Closing eyes is the best part of spinning.<br /><br />Nice workout! Great post. You're the best.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02219457885959637135noreply@blogger.com
