Exercise classes...

I've just done my first spinning class and actually I didn't hate it as much as I thought I would.

I look like I'm about to have a heart attack it has to be said and while it was hard work, I feel pretty good now! I think I may have found a class that works for my terrible co-ordination!

I swim a lot but I was looking for a class to do that's gonna make me feel like I've had a workout... its fair to say I feel like I've worked out!

What exercise classes or just exercise do you do (other than the obvious of course!) and what do you enjoy about it most?

I went out on my bike and did 17 miles last night then swam 40 lengths after. I walk to and from work every day (been off for just over a week and missing that a lot!) and swim on the way to the office. Am quite looking forward to getting back to work tomorrow.

Day three of no smoking! I've decided being an exercise junkie is the way forward!!

Love body pump and body attack (the proper ones, lol, not what YOU think

not so keen on spinning as I dont like it when I get covered in other people's sweat. Perhaps the bikes are just too close in our gym?

I do love swimming and general weight training though

Been ill lately but my usual week is 30 mins walking per day, 30 mins cardio fitness Mon, Wed and Fri, 20 mins pilates/calisthenics Mon, Wed and Fri, and 60 mins military circuits Tues and Thurs. It's gonna be a killer trying to get back into my routine.

I like pilates... it's way hard and a really good workout for not running about like an eejit! I like that part of it. I need to get a job that lets me finish work earlier!!

I think maybe I'll try to do some more classes.

5 a side does more damage to the knees than Thai boxing, I play footie once a week and Thai box 2-3 times a week, I mainly teach these days though

Spin is the best "fatburner" in a gym. This is because it uses "Intervals". In other words you sprint then rest then sprint again.this causes your body to burn fuel long after you stop.its far better than jogging for instance.I love it, others hate it. Reading a book and cycling in the gym on the other hand will burn next to zero calories more than you would just putting your feet up in front of the T.V.

That always makes me laugh, some woman flicking through Hello while cycling at 0mph....

Running is good if you do intervals though! I do 600m intervals once a week, fartlek once a week as well and a distance run.

Wrong. Fartlek is interval training without the fixed distances.

Basically, it's interval training but instead of doing say, 400m then a recovery, you pick a point in the distance, run as fast as you can to it then take a recovery period then just repeat. It's a good starter if you're not used to running speed work cos you can pick and vary your interval distances - long as you challenge yourself. I use it for a sort of middle ground run - not my easy run of the week but not as intense as my interval run.

I run, row, cycle and use the cross trainer for cardio. Also do 'suicide runs' for sprint training. Use weights. I also play rugby, both contact and touch, and enjoy the social aspect as much as the running around hitting people thing.

For sports bras, can thoroughly recommend the Shock Absorber Max Sports Bra top... think you can get it in Bravissimo and from figleaves. I am not small on the boobage front, but it acts like a well trained sheepdog... rounds em up and pens them in!

I tried replying to you privately but I'm blocked...

Did you just buy your bra size or did you go down a size? The problem I have is that I'm changing shape pretty rapidly when I go full on with the exercise so I don't want to keep having to buy new bras. It's a pain in the tits so to speak!!

I cycle (as the name suggests), probably around 150 miles a week on average. Used to race, will probably race again this year. Run, usually a couple of times a week, building up speed and intensity and averaging around 11km per session and maxing at 13 km/ph. Struggling to learn to swim as it is pointless to have the running and cycling fitness and not do a triathlon at somepoint but I'm struggling with the breathing technique.

Spin is an excellent workout, though I get amused by people that do it on a ridiculous low intensity like those already criticised for cycling and reading.

Did one of those 24hour team cycle events, a couple of years back, one of the hardest things I have ever do.

It is good to look back on, still cycle and swim, as for running thats why I have a bike. lol

To be honest, I don't think that anyone doing any sort of exercise should be criticised.

It took me a long time to get myself to the gym. When you're overweight and not comfortable in your skin, it's intimidating and attitudes like that really don't help.

A little bit of encouragement to someone in the gym who may be doing something not quite right, a little bit of help or advice where you can give it would go a lot further than scorn for going so slow they can read a book at the same time.

I'm sure you can understand that given that you're learning to swim. I'm a great swimmer, always have been and I'd like to think I'd help someone who was struggling rather than look down my nose at them at least trying.

Something to bear in mind while you're being amused by the less fit.

Ahhhh… that is a shame, a running buddy would be really good although I'm not sure how much conversation I could manage whilst running! Some company would be good though!

I don't myself. I try to get the protein from lots of chicken and fish. Broccoli, spinach, apples and bananas are all great foods if your trying to burn fat. Also try to get a good 8-9 hours sleep a day. It can be easier said than done but the end results and mental well-being you get from regular exercise is really worth it.

Don't run a car, walk everyday, dance and yoga classes and occasional cycling and swimming.

Agree that a healthy diet maintained over time is better than any of those quick fixes. I went from a near size 20 to a 12 with good diet and regular exercise over two years and have now balanced out at a size 14-ish.

A spate of inactivity or caving in to sweets can put it back on very quickly so have to be diligent.

A spate of inactivity or caving in to sweets can put it back on very quickly so have to be diligent."

Agreed.

A friend of mine once broke his ankle falling of the decking in his garden. He was vegetarian at the time and had a taste for deep-fried Haloumi cheese. 3.5 Months later and he was over 3 stone heavier!

Before his enforced inactivity he was a healthy gym freak, going nearly every day. Afterwards he was oveweight, high blood pressure and unfit. Took him a good while to rectify the problem.

The plus side is, he doesn't eat deep-fried cheese anymore!
