I'm spinning to increase endurance.

I'm good on food and weight. Pretty steady 180 @ 5'11 and happy with myself

It seems eating for improved performance is more complex than eating for a beach bod so I'm not sure. Hell eat the kit kat, I would

Saw them at The Aragon three years ago. Everyone in the Chicago thread bitches about that venue but that concert owned so hard. It's a testament to how great of a band they are.

The class is frequently called spin. I don't think anybody calls jumping on a stationary bike "spinning"

Edit: according to wiki indoor cycling classes have been called spin as early as 1897 so apparently they have always been known that I wa not aware!

ok so it's spinning if it's a class but if you're just doing it alone it's not spinning

that makes loads of sense

My wife and I have an ongoing dispute as to whether to turn the carport (not the garage, previous owner collected cars) into a home gym or a guest house for her parents. I feel like my $3000 renovation is way more reasonable than her $50,000 renovation, and she feels like I should stop my bitching and learn to put up drywall so it doesn't cost so much. I'll probably lose the battle on this one, but the upshot is I'll probably wind up with my own Groverhaus to show off.

Drywall and framing are easy enough. It's the planning, electric and plumbing that are terrible. And all the finish work. And all of it really.
