Spinning - How many days per week?

[carolyn122162]

Just curious on how often everyone rides their spin bike. I am side-lined from running and high impact with a foot injury and was wanting to start spinning 4-5 day a week.I have all 3 of Cathe's spin dvd's. Is that too much? Do I need recovery time.

Thanks for the input

When I used to bike outside, I would go almost every day. Since it was no impact, I never needed much recovery. Of course, being 20 may have had something to do with it.

Now I do spinning DVDs 2 days per week and run3 days.

Maybe add easier bike sessions in where you just go at a comfortable pace for 30 minutes to an hour in between doing the DVDs?

I'd be a little wary about a foot injury and the spinning DVDS. There is a lot of standing work, check with your doctor.
