Update: Day one of 30 for spinning

Sorry this is an update from a previous post. I plan on doing weekly updates in the future but may not do day to day ones like I did here. Overall really happy with the week (I only posted 6 days but to me weeks start on Sunday so I will include that day in next weeks update.

Note: this is from my notes app on my iPhone so my entry may seem choppy as I updated it daily.

Day 2: tired and not really sore from the first day of class. I did 30 minutes of class at a medium effort. The shorter duration made things much more approachable and the music wasn’t an issue today 😁 Definitely need to prioritize my core a bit more as that will help me transition into running again. Overall I am happy I went yesterday and happy that I got 30 in today. I plan on doing 45 min easy on my own tomorrow.

Day 3: Only 30 minutes east lol. I was tired and it was late in the day. My ass hurts though lowkey from spending so much time seated. My seat position is good and everything but maybe I don’t have enough junk in my trunk. Plan on doing a 30 minute class tomorrow.

Day 4: Did 45 minute class today. Was able to keep up a bit better and the sound wasn’t an issue still. I need to figure out how to handle my 6’2 VERY long legged frame with some of the jump claps and everything. I always worry that I am gonna fall off the bike and also tbh I am too slow to keep the rhythm. 30 easy tomorrow for me as I am going out with some friends from grad school tonight and I may or may not be hungover a bit tomorrow 🙃

Day 5: Hungover rest day tbh lol

Day 6: 30 easy. I am not sore at all but yesterday was an off day. I would like to aim for 4 spin classes next week and I think that should be manageable. Tbh my hands are very sore from the handlebars lol. Some of the choreography is hard on them since I am a bigger guy. Overall very happy with this week.
