Thanks for the tips, RR and everyone. I did the first session tonight and did great. Much more confidence about walking in there as a large woman who is without question an athlete. The first month, we are working on increasingly long intervals of low cadence, high resistance. That's my strong suit. I kinda forgot there for a while that I don't have to walk into the cadence sessions able to do 140 rpms. It's a number to shoot for, and it's all about improvement. Was a time I couldn't do 90.

My weight question was actually if losing more weight (and having somewhat smaller legs) could get me more legspeed. Maybe the cart is before the horse. Again!
