This morning I woke up at 4AM and couldn't get back to sleep. It is supposed to be a nice day today (finally) so I decided to go to a 5:10AM spin class. OMG it was packed! These people were whooping and hollering, having a great old time! Are they crazy?:noway: I could never do that every day (or even once a week). HATS OFF TO YOU EARLY SPINNERS (and anyone else working out that early). :drinker: Anyway, everyone have a great day!!:bigsmile:

    Just jump in!!! The great thing is that you don't have to be "good" and the others get a total rush out of having a newbie to talk through it! Seriously, not all spin classes are created equal, but they should talk you through going slower or easier if needed! I am so going to have to find one when the heat really starts up!

    ANYONE can do spin! It's at your own pace. If you're uncomfortable, get a bike in the back and go early to have the instructor set you up. Trust me, no one is watching you anyway. My eyes are closed half the time because sweat is dripping down my face.:laugh: It's a great cardio workout, but I too had to work up to it. Now that I've been doing it for a few weeks, I have to tell you, you can do it at any fitness level because it's truly YOUR workout. You do what you can do and no one is really paying any attention to anyone else. By the way, my usual spin time is 9:30AM (not 5AM). I think I'll stick to that time.:happy:

    My gym has a spin class at 5:45 and you have to get there early to sign up and get your hand stamped. There are 31 spin bikes and it fills up and people get turned away every day.

    There are crazy people everywhere.

    I like to exercise in the morning before I can talk myself out of it.
