I can bide my time...

you'll just have to wait for the 'balmy' summer evenings to get yourself down the A34 ...

Theres a slight chance I may turn up to one of these as I'm on clinical placement in Crewe for the next 7 weeks. I've never been to a spinning class before...what to expect? You say good soundtrack...?
Are the saddles torture devices?

excellent!
just a few pointers then....
the bikes are functional and adjustable for seat height, seat fore and aft and handlebar height.. fixed pedal to the flywheel - hence no freewheeling
the saddles are designed for a compromise for both sexes, but are more 'padded' for want of a better word than a normal road saddle, but use of cycling shorts is still recommended...
the 'work' is an intensity level that you are capable of... if you 'blow out' half way thru and walk off then that's no good to me (or you)

the music is always down to instructor choice but I do choose it carefully to match whatever simulated ride profile is being conveyed.

the classes are 'short' 45 minutes or so.. and that includes some warmup and cooldown stretching stuff.

It's an ideal opportunity to build up base aerobic fitness as a new starter and as you progress to use a class to try out maybe something you hadnt considered before like a higher cadence or to concentrate on a smooth rhythm that could pay dividends on a hill.....

water or rehydration drink mix .. towel .. and I recommend the
7pm class for yourself initially

that covers a few of the generalities...

As you're probably already aware hels, there are Spin sessions at LA fitness in Northwich, presumably need to be a member though?

Sorry to jump on the thread, but does anyone konw of any spin classes around the Bolton area. I'm not a member of any gyms, and can't seem to find any 'public' sessions?
