Support through spin
It has been a while since I posted last.
I have returned to one of my favorite places- bikeorbar . I enjoy taking spin classes there- the energy is amazing and the support from the staff there is incredible. (Shoutout to my good friend- who I consider more like family- DYLAN. Dylan and I recently took a class together.)
I sincerely have enjoyed a few recent classes faclitated by “M.J.” who I have also shared my story with. Her compassion and motivation has inspired me to continue on my recovery journey. Oh and I can’t forget about the owner, Alex, who has also been nothing but incredible in encouraging me on my road to recovery.
I’m blessed that my treatment team supports me to incorporate exercise back into my routine, in a healthy way. I truly enjoy spinning because it makes me feel happy. I admit when I was spinning a few months ago, I wasn’t eating enough! I was so weak for classes but I tricked myself into believing that I was healthy enough to sustain a cardio workout. Well, we all know how that ended.
Now I fuel up before and maintain good energy throughout class…except when I have my ass handed to me by those crazy spin instructors. ;-)
Needless to say, I have been getting my life back. I am happy that I can incorporate exercise into my routine and I am appreciative of the support from the bikeorbar staff.
Tomorrow, July 29, I will return to work, so watch for another blog post in the upcoming days!
