Spinning Class? - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

SpaSlave · 05-16-2009, 07:51 AM

Hi guys! This is my first post in this section. I have been an athlete much of my life but due to alcoholism and an eating disorder I have packed on some pounds.

I have been wanting to try a spinning class at my gym but Im afraid of being the "biggest girl" in the class

Im also scared of what that bike seat will do to my butt lol. Any advice? Have any of you taken a spinning class?

Sometimes they have pads there you can use, or you can buy one in a sports equipment store. There are lots of big girls (and formerly big girls) in those classes...not to worry. I'm still trying to work off the 30 or so pounds I put on after getting sober.
