    Opinions - Interval Cycling Class for cardio

    So a friend of mine teaches cycling.....and i've not been doing high intensity cardio in years past, but i think doing her class once a week would help in the leg shredding dept for sure.

    What is anyone's opinion on this? She also teaches a jump rope class for cardio that could be badass. I just wanna get creative moreso than in the past with my cardio options for my contest prep here

    negatives/positives?

    I hear spin classes shed weight like crazy.

    I am not sure though, it's something to think about.

    It's fast/slow paced. Might work like interval sprints for cutting fat.....but seems like it could be so catabolic you could also risk burning some muscle.

    that's what i'm worried about....but i really need to be doing some kind of high intensity stuff at least once a week. Once a week wouldn't KILL me would it? in the catabolic dept. And that'll be drastically reduced once i start my cycle.

    Once a week is fine IMO, especially if you're on cycle

    Is the girl teaching the class hot? Cause if you are cycling with a hard on, the lack of blood could result in further metabolizing of muscle!

    I think you pace yourself too in most of the classes.....I can't imagine 1 day a week getting too bad.

    I think Nick Cannon was doing it, and hell he's jacked bro.

    she's the most beautiful hot sexy fitness girl i know at the moment.....she actually said to me once something to the tune of "i want absolutely shredded legs and abs"......needless to say she's amazing. And as blond as me too, so sexy
