Anyone spin with foot fracture?

Heels?

Hmmm, I don't pedal my bike with the heels on the pedal. I don't teach spinning classes, so I'm not as a good a resource as HanGrrl, but I always thought the balls of the feet did spinning just like they do biking. Do spinning shoes have cleats in the heels?

If you are honestly pedalling with your heels, then I guess your forefoot bones are safe.

Spinning shoes have clips under the front of the foot to clip into the bikes. Our instructors claim that if you use the front of the foot, you will cramp up, which used to happen to me a lot, but not any more, I really try to push down with the heels--sometimes I forget though.
