I reluctantly signed up for Spinning class as the temperature took a nosedive here in Missouri. We get out when the high is 50--and I bought a trainer and spinervals DVD in case I missed too many classes.

My quads were SHREDDED! I woke up the day after the first class and could barely walk. I skipped weight lifting all week and was sore enough, I considered skipping the second class. However, I sucked it up and felt pretty good on the bike. By the afternoon, my quads were feeling fried again!

I don't usually stand up to climb on my street bike and only sprint until I feel tired. Spinning class forces you to push a little more--especially since you know you don't have to ride back to the car. I thought I was taking it easy on the resisistance.

I've had three different instructors and they are all different. My third class was better. How is everyone else doing?
