I feel like today is going to be a good day. Not just because it’s going to be 31 degrees (hottttt!), or because I have a jam packed schedule that will make the day fly by, or because it’s one day closer to the long weekend.
I’m going to my very first spin class tonight!
About a month ago, I mentioned in a #fitblog chat that I had never been to a spin class. The response was huge! It was made very clear by my fellow fitbloggers that I needed to try one out.
So tonight, I will spin. Eeeek!
Have you ever taken a spin class? Are you a fan?

In other news, I have an extreme television hangover today. No complaints though.
Do you watch Smash?
LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. The finale was incredible. The last number left me with goosebumps. I watched the last ten minutes with my mouth wide open.
Have I ever shared with you that I am a huge Marilyn fan? I have so many Marilyn posters and books. I even have drinking glasses and coasters. Seriously. So this show is right up my alley (and I’m a musical addict). Last night’s episode didn’t disappoint.
And honestly, neither did the handful of other shows I watched last night (including The Bachelorette – any other fans?). I went hardcore with my couch and remote control time since last night was the only night I will be home all week. I should have cleaned up my living room.
Whoopsie.
Did you watch anything on TV last night? Tell me. I bet I watched it too 
Ok this post just made me so excited:
1. I can’t wait to hear what you think of spin!! My favorite workout evvvver!
2. I LOVE SMASH!!!! And I didn’t watch any tv last night because I was exhausted so that means I have my DVR full and waiting for me. Between smash and the bachelorette…. I’m going to be glued to the tv. Can’t.wait.
Full DVR = happiness. Enjoy!
I’ve never watched SMASH – I don’t even know if we get it here in Oz…
As for Spin – I’m not a fan… though that could be cos I get sore hipflexors from most exercise bikes, but particularly the spin bikes. Hope you enjoy it!!!

Oh Deb. You’re missing out. Smash is so good!
i can’t wait to hear what you think about spin! i spin once a week and absolutely love it! always brave to try something new. just remember though, it takes a few goes to get used to the (ahem) seat…
Hahaha, yes. Thanks for the heads up!!
I have done spinning at a couple different places, honestly it is a hit or a miss. Some are better work outs than others, I am more bothered by the pain in the butt feeling quite literally. I never feel super exhausted after one but maybe I just haven’t taken one at a good place.
I hope my class is a good one!
I LOVE SPIN CLASSES!!!!
Okay I will say though, I actually hated my first class or two. I found that it took a few classes to get comfortable, know the different positions and find the right instructor (motivates + great music). It’s seriously my favorite type of workout when I want to get super sweaty and push hard. I always walk out of class with a smile on my face. I can’t wait to hear what you think!
I dvr’ed the bachelorette. Can’t wait to watch tonight!
I knew I would probably feel uncomfortable in my first class, so I’m bringing a friend along with me. She’s taken a spin class before, so I can look at her with puppy dog “I’m confused” eyes if I don’t catch on
I go through phases where I really love spin and other phases where the thought of doing it makes me want to throw up a little. Overall, I’d say it’s the music that makes or breaks a class for me so hopefully the class you go to has some good tunes. Just a warning though – your butt is going to be SORE. I’ve been spinning on and off for over 2 yrs and if I don’t do it for even a week I have to break in the saddle again… not fun, but give it a few times and it gets better. Can’t wait to read about it!
I want my butt to be sore! Haha. I’m looking forward to this!
I like spin
it’s a great burn for just one hour of work!
And I LOOOOOOOVE Smash! I’ve been a fan since DAY ONE! If they put out the show on B’way for real, I’d go so it
Smash is THE BEST! Thank you for stopping by my blog – I just tried to comment on yours but my computer decided to change my mind for me
I love your story!
Spin classes can be fun and intense. It depends om the instructor on how fun it will be, as with other things. I’m sure you’ll like it.
My mom loves smash. I’m sure she shared your goosebump feelings hah
I bet we did share the goosebumpy feeling. I bet we did.
I am so excited for you! I haven’t done a spin class before! ENJOY! I will be thinking of you
I love Smash! I thought the finale was fantastic
I have also never been to a spin class before. I recently joined a gym and I was thinking of signing up for a class. I’m excited to see what you think!
