And relax.

I used to get palpitations going into the Sweatshop. It was my favourite shop in the world. [sigh]

LOL, yes I was doing RPM (similar to Spinning) in my really wide leg trews and I got them all wound up in the pedals, always fine with bootleg bottoms with a narrower flare on them.

[[http://www.anniluce.co.uk/user/productDetails.php?ProdId=176&CatId=4&SubCatId= These] aren't too baggy but perhaps still too baggy for your requirements.

Just got some Stella McCartney for Adidas stuff. It's lovely but very expensive. Bought it in John Lewis. Now need a gym body to go with it.

TootyFrooty · 22/06/2007 13:55

No worries naily. Do a couple of spins for me will you?!

MrsSpoon · 22/06/2007 13:55

These I mean. Also These look like what you are after but I don't think they have them anymore, the top is sale stock and I can't see the bottoms listed anywhere.

nailpolish · 22/06/2007 13:55

OP posts:
TootyFrooty · 22/06/2007 13:56

Gah. Don't tempt me. I don't need anything.

Oh ok then

nailpolish · 22/06/2007 13:57

everyone tell me what you get up to at the gym

im genuinely interested in what classes/machines you all like

OP posts:
MrsSpoon · 22/06/2007 14:02

I go the the local leisure centre. I have considered Bannatynes but weighed up the pros and cons and stayed with the leisure centre.

I tend to prefer classes and do RPM, BodyPump and Aerobics. Occasionally you'll catch me in the gym but I tend to be running on the treadmill or exercise bikes, the weight machines in the gym do not inspire me.

Are you in Edinburgh now Naily?
