So, Spring is officially here and we are on our way to Summer! soon I will posting  about a 6 week get ready for Summer work out plan.

Though it is Spring, some of us still have snow on the ground. Maybe you are trying to train for a duathalon or triathalon this summer. Or, maybe you are just itching to take your bike out of the garage (or where it is hanging from the ceiling if you have a tiny NY apt like me). Don't wait any longer. Get a Bike trainer! Pictured below, you can get one from many places including Amazon.com. They run around $80 and the allow you to experience regular outdoor riding indoors much like a spinning class.

If you have never taken a spinning class then you are missing out! I teach a few classes per week and I can tell you that you will get your money's worth. Spinning is challenging and unique as it is hi intensity/  low impact and burns an average of 500 calories per class. In a future blog entry I will go into greater detail regarding all of the details of spinning and how it will effect your workout.

the moral of the story is don't let the weather hold you back on your workout. There is always an answer for every excuse we can come up with!
