Those are some nice arms ya got there

Nightmare fuel..

Let me give the arms some love! I am definitely attracted to a man with a sexy smile and nice arms

Straight, white teeth.. gotta have a nice smile:-) and have to be charming .. sense of humor. Also, I love when a man acts like your the only woman in the room, eye contact and focus.

Feel free to add me:-)

I started at a gym doing a spinning class and it motivated me so much to do more cardio and lifting. The class really established my endurance. It also helped at first that the lights were low and I felt no one was looking at me. The people were so nice and it was great to meet a few new people before delving into a…

At first I loved to work out at home but then I found a class I loved at the gym.... spinning. I met people and established comfort and people I could go to for advice while working out. I still do some at home but love the gym.

I love what they do for me, I just hate doing them. It's my problem lol squats are great

No problem! For so long I wasn't eating anything and felt like poop at the gym. All the sudden, I changed my eating and hit my spinning class and rocked it! Amazing how that works!

Nothing is worse than squats!!!!

When do you eat?? I find that if I eat a protein bar a half hour before working out, I have enough energy to get through my workout. Also, I chug water through my cardio. Then when I get home I have a protein shake. I don't know how tough your workouts are but maybe you just don't have enough nutrients in you close enough…

So you feel you use more of your leg using these shoes? It's amazing how an appropriate shoe can make such a substantial differance. I am going to look them up for sure! I feel most of the burn in my quads and would love to feel the burn in my whole leg.

Thanks! I have been having issues with my ankle hurting and my toes going numb often so I'm hoping a better pair of shoes will help out.

Does anyone have recommendations on shoes? I need a different pair and thought someone may have a pair they love! Thanks

Those are all really great ideas, thank you! I have been drinking the protein shakes and will definitely be making more of an effort to take in more!

Hi there! I was in a similar situation. I eventually was invited to take a spinning class with a friend and now go 3 days a week and love it. Sometimes it takes that one time and finding something that really works for you and makes exercise fun.

I know this will sound odd but had anyone ever seen spinning shoes that do not have clips?

This is what I love about the classes that are offered at my gym. It is all about keeping rhythm/beat with the song so you always know how slow or fast you should be going. The instructor will tell you how heavy your resistance should be. I also think it is natural at first to slow down on the hills and with more…

I have yet to try HIIT... what is that class like?

I found that after about 6 classes and having the bike set up for me, I was set and no longer sore. Shoes also make a big difference. My feet were sore especially in the center and my toes would go numb. The shoes helped a ton.

Haha! I was really sore just about everywhere below my waste for like 6 classes than my body acclimated. At first, spinning causes more than just muscle soreness that's for sure but once you get past that, it's such a great workout. I go with a friend and that really makes it fun as well... we suffered together!

The way our classes are around here is a dance style. You go by the beat of the music and your instructor tells you the resistance you should be at during each song and each section of the song. I have lost some and have noticed my body changing... more muscle tone, leaner/longer muscles... of course endurance is much…

Thank you for all the responses! I don't intentionally eat so little. It seems that when I exercise I lose my appetite. I have to force myself to eat. I started logging to ensure I was eating at least 1000. I have gotten so confused on what is happening with my body and journey. At first I thought eating so low calories…

Also, I am 30, 5'6, 155lbs. I have been seriously thing to lose weight for about 2 months and the last 2 weeks I have held steady.

I only take in about 1000 calories a day as it is so I don't think I can dip much lower without hurting what I am trying to do.. I take in a lot of protein and veggies.

Right there with you
