Total Accomplishment Status

You may already know that I'm addicted to spinning and that I have wanted to get my Spinning Certification for a very long time now. I procrastinated because I always felt that I needed to get in even better shape to be more prepared. Finally, I decided that if I didn't do it now I would never do it. I started researching certification programs and I decided to get certified with Spinning because they are the ones who originally created Spinning. The only down side to the company is that they don't offer orientation in Las Vegas. So Eddie and I ventured to Venica, CA so that I could go to my Spinning Orientation on February 19th. The greatest thing about being in Venice was waking up to this view:

The orientation class was from 9am to 5pm and it was pure amazeballs for the following reasons:

1. I got to be surrounded by people who were encouraging and supportive of my future plans - it's soo nice to talk to people who share the same passions as you.
2. I got to see the new Spinner NXT bike that hasn't even been released yet; which made me feel privelaged and part of a secret society! The new NXT is pretty awesome and the coolest feature is the the fore and aft is now adjustable - very good for roadies because it will give them the feeling of riding on their mountain bike.
3. I was the ONLY one in the class to properly do my bike set up! It felt great that I was the only one that the instructor didn't have to correct (total accomplishment status).
4. Last but not least, I am super proud of myself for completing the orientation. I thought it was going to be super intense and wanted to show off, but it wasn't even like that at all. You would sit on the bike and the instructor would say, "This is a correctly executed seated flat... now do a seated flat for a minute." Then you would sit there while he explained the purpose of a seated flat - it was more about proper safety and teaching things appropriately, but don't get me wrong I completely enjoyed every minute of it. My hard work paid off! (GO ME!!)

I'm so glad I stuck it out and got certified by the Spinning Program. Now I feel like I can take on anything! :)

I hope everyone has a blessed week!
