    Hi,

    Just looking for some help from all you fitness guru's. I am trying to lose weight and tone up. I have being going to 2 spinning classes a week and a toning class. On top of this I do 2 sessions of cardio in the gym for 45mins. I just want to make sure that spinning is a good class to do to burn fat and help lose weight. Ideally I want to lose the weight from my thighs and hips.

    Thanks,
    Fiona

    Yes.
    The important thing when trying to lose weight is to ensure you are burning more calories than you are consuming, Hence diet is the most important thing. Post your diet. You could be doing 3 spin classes a day but if your diet wasn't right you still wouldnt lose weight.

    Good stuff.
    Looks like you have it pretty much nailed.

    One thing I would suggest would be changing the two cardio sessions for weight sessions.
