Karma,

Thanks for the info on these books. I always wondered what spinning was

since I've heard so much talk about it. I think I might go ahead and

order these books off amazon.

Thanks,

I just joined a gym and they offer Spinning classes--I was thinking it might be

a good Cardio workout. I'd love to hear something from someone, too.

I took spinning classes about 7 years ago, and they are a great workout. They

really get your heart pumpin'. This is the best " cycling " workout without

getting oun a bike to go for a ride. I really made some great progress

physically while taking these classes.

The only thing I would say about these classes working into BFL is that most

teachers don't really follow an " interval " training as set-up in BFL. I would

check on the format of the class, and the length in time. Around here the

classes seem to last around 45 minutes. I haven't checked on the format of the

classes yet, but I am hoping to work them into my cardio program somehow.

Here's me $.13....

I agree that they are a really good workout. Especially if the music

is pumping and you forget how long you've been peddling and

sweating. I took one class and enjoyed the intensity and the

variety. This was a few years ago and I was too shy to approach the

instructor and let her know I was new. The next day my wrists were

killing me! The bikes have specific settings - so just make sure you

have someone help you set it up. I was leaning way too far forward

and putting too much weight on my hands. Otherwise, great workout!

I miss spinning so much - I can't make the classes now I'm teaching. But

an hour of spinnig was definitely intense enough to replace a 20 minute

cardio session. That class made me work!

Hi guys,

Just took my first spinning class and wondering what everyone thought

of this class as cardio--is it more like just an extra thing or do you

think its intense enough to be one of our weekly sessions? I found it

challenging and I was certainly working hard but still thinking of

doing my three 20 min sessions this week. Just wondering what everyone

thought.

Thanks

[Guest guest]

I used to do these about 4 times a week when I lost weight the first

time. Those classes changed the shape of my butt!! I would do them

again but the only classes on base are 6 am and 11:30 am...neither

work for me Those spinning clases are the bomb...I miss

them...very challenging!

Oh my, Spinning is so hard, there's no way it couldn't work! I can't

even get through 25 minutes without feeling like I'm dying. I need

to start going to that again... Thanks for the reminder!

funny you should say that- I took my first spinning class 2 weeks ago, and

thought it

was good enough,-if you make it so. It had levels of exceedingly higher

intensity and

repeatedly returning to a " base " pace. Plus it was a little longer than 20

minutes and

sometimes I feel like I might need a little extra cardio per week. - AND, best

of all it

really breaks of the monotony! I loved it!

I finally tried spinning. Can I just tell you all it is the hardest

workout I have ever had in my life. This coming from a girl who

almost kills herself every single HIIT 20 minutes on the treadmill. I

didn't think there could ever be anything more treacherous.....WELL,

THERE IS!

I loved it so much on Sat. that I skipped Church and went back for the

Sunday morning class. I practically felt like I was in church anyways

cause I was praying for it to end the entire time!!!!!!!!

If they offered it at my gym I would do it all week long.....I may

have to become an instructor so they can offer the class more often.

Try it if you get a chance!!!

[Guest guest]

I've been wanting to take a spinning class for so long but OMG, they

look hard as heck and (as I've admitted b4) I can be a wimp if I let

myself...

Spinning is wonderfull!! It is also adictive. I don't sweat with

any other workout like I sweat while spinning. If you haven't tried

it, I highly recommend.

Spinning is one of the best cardio work outs out there, and it is

very difficult. More often than not, the lights are off during the

class and the beauty is that you can work at your own pace. Unlike

aerobics classes that are choreographed so that you pretty much have

to do what everyone else is doing, in spinning you are doing what

everyone else is, but at your own level. You decide at what

resistance you have your bike and how fast you go. You're encouraged

to push yourself, and believe me, you will, but there isn't that

self-consciousness of trying to keep up if you're a beginner.

I have done spinning for my HIIT because I can control my levels.

Good luck!

In spinning classes, are the bikes equipped for upper body too? The one I

use at home is, and I try to gauge by RPM or by " theoretical calories burned

per hour " There is no resistance adjustment but the harder you peddle, the

more resistance you get.

My question... should I be working out with the upper body like that, after

I've just done an upper body strength work out the day before?

I like the endurance rides too. I don't like getting out of the saddle all of

the time and am not sure how safe the jump drills are on the knees for most

people, and that's not what you do on a real bike anyway for the most part.

Glad you enjoyed the class, Judy!

I don't do jumps in my class as I do this from a cyclists perspective

It depends on the situation! Spinning might be good, it might mean your child

now registers the sensation and enjoys it, it may mean your child has a deep

need for vestibular/sensory input, it could mean a lack of stimulation in

another area, there are other reasons. Children stim (spin, rub hands, poke

eyes, flap hands, vocalize, whatever) because it fulfills a need. That doesn't

mean it's normal or acceptable, but it is a sign. For a child who never moved

much before, spinning is a wonderful sign that the sensory system is starting to

work. For a child who moves too much, spinning may be a sign that something is

out of whack, over-done, etc. My advice would be to ask your therapist what to

do. I wouldn't want to you squealch (is that a word?) the behavior if it is a

good behavior to have. Does that make sense? (btw, I am a therapist) You have to

look at the whole situation, not just one behavior. HTH!

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the reminder! My son does the spinning, but we know its yeast

related becuase of other accompanying (sp?) behaviors like the uncontrollable

giggles and the brewery smelling BMs. But he flaps when stressed and scripts

during pretend play. As his conversational skills have improved, he scripts

less and basically we only see it when we're playing and its in contezt.

Hi all, I haven't posted in a long time or even been reading posts in a while,

things have been pretty busy lately. I'm gonna try and change that.

Anyway, I'm having one of those mornings, no where to vent, no one else really

gets it, but is quick to find a way for it to be my fault. My fault, because I

don't provide enough structure, my fault because I don't medicate him, my fault

becase we homeschool, etc.

So, what set me off? I homeschool our son and his distractability is huge. I

tell him what he's doing next, tell him to get his materials and 5 min later,

where is he? He's spinning in circles in the room where his materials are kept.

If I don't set a timer and say meet me here w/ your materials in 3min and hand

him the timer I loose him! I don't want to put him on ADD meds, but I'm having a

hard time keeping him focussed moving from one thing to the next. Once he gets

started he focuses great, it's the transitions and getting started that I'm

needing some help with. Any ideas? He is 9 and we are having him tested for

dyslexia on Friday.

I recommend a bottle of shaving cream and a mirror and let the kids rub their hands on the mirror. It has worked with little kids in the past.NickOn Mon, Nov 22, 2010 at 2:31 PM, ashley <adramash@...> wrote:

One of my other kids does the brushing. So, we could easily try it w/ him.
