In honor of 400 White Whines, I’d like to post what is still my favorite to this day.

Complaint #30 

“Can’t they just make ski boots that are easier to walk in?”

- Whine by Robert Lyons

I think I may have actually said this - more than once.

To maximize the benefits of your hard work in a spin class, you really need to position your body correctly.  After setting up your bike, here is a checklist of things you should try to remember while riding.  Start from the head down: ::

• Head up
• Shoulders down and relaxed.  Away from your ears
• Chest up
• Back slightly curved
• Core egaged.  ABS IN! (This is the most important because it keeps the weight of the wheel out of your quads and arms.)
• Legs parallel
• Pull your knees up, don’t just push your feet down
• Feet flat
• Push your heels down to dig when climbing

ugh - spell-freaking-check = crucial
