    I didn't push myself this week but I did today. My dad's spinning DVD is a level 3.5 outta 4. Just to give you an idea, it makes my dad poor sweat and he rides 200-300K rides in one day. LOL, glad he got me some padded cycling pants!

    i've never even been on a spinning bike before. it looks like a killer workout though! are you still pushing toward your goal of 300 min. this week?

    My dad actually has these things that you put your bike on to make it stationary, I love it. He got me a super nice bike and then one to use on the trainer. Once we get our basement fixed I plan on moving my bike stuff over here. It's a great workout and my legs are jelly when I get done. I must say, the padded shorts are a must. Once I didn't use them and owwwww, it hurt.

    I'll def get to my goal this week. I'm so glad to have a challenge thread to be a part of, once I say I'll do something, I'll do it. It def helped me to stay on track this week and make time for my w/o, especially this weekend. :)

    Making my goal 300 for next week - not including my cleaning job - seemed too simple this week for me... thought about going to 350, but realize I will have a late work night due to a meeting on Tuesday, so didn't want to push my luck on it too much this week!
