Anyone recommend how many spinning classes a week would make a difference for me?
Sick of the gym and limited results. I walk at least 5 days a week on top of this!

    What difference are you looking to make?

    As far as seeing "limited results" I would evaluate your diet.

    Both weightloss and toning.

    My diet is pretty good but I'm in the midst of hypothyroid treatment so my weight is unstable

    Thats a hard question to answer. I try to get to a spin class 3-4 times a week. Depending on the class, i'll generally burn 500-750 calories according to my HRM depending on class length and intensity. Be aware, i might take 4-5 classes before your butt gets use to the seat.
