Funny story about my spinning class last night

[Shanda]

Hi everybody,
This is a story only you all will understand. I've been considering going back to the gym for spinning and kickboxing. Anyway, I took a spinning class and the instructor says to me "is this your first time"? I said "no". During the class she keeps asking me am I ok. I wanted to say so bad "look lady I do Powermax on an 8 inch step surely, this 45 min spinning class want kill me". Grant it, I was sweating alot but I always do.

The class just did not seem that difficult to me. Cathe is amazing what she has done for my cardio endurance is incredible. I just wanted to share that because people at the gym think working out at home is a joke. I'd like to see them do powermax on an 8 inch step(LOL).

Bye
Shanda

Hi, Shanda that's funny! Cathe's workouts are the best! I did Leaner Legs yesterday after a three week Slow/Heavy rotation and I am dog-goned if it wasn't,well, I'd be lying if I said easy, but it was definitely not as difficult as it was the last time I did it! I have never gotten a club workout that could compare to one that I got from Cathe!

RE: Anti-home w/o attitudes

Thanks for sharing, Shanda. I am fortunate that I have a great gym in my area that challenges me as much, if not more than, Cathe tapes. So I get the best of both worlds, whether I can make it to the gym or not! Soooo lucky, I know. (GO, LVAC) One of my instructors, with whom I have become friends, was chiding me about taking a few weeks off from her classes. I brought her IMAX and MIC and told her to watch them and shush up. she amended her attitude about home workouts. In fact, she has decided to produce one of her own which I think is just fab!
PS.
Sounds like, frankly, you pulled a bad Spin instructor. Don't give up on it, if you have other teachers or gyms to check out. I have a few who work me so hard I am a limp noodle at the end of class, not one ounce of fuel left unburned (in a good way). There are also a few others who are just too easy for me to waste my time-I don't even sweat with the gear tension turned all the way up the whole class.I am a newbie spinner, only been doing it a year or so. But with the right level, soo effective.
