Last week Shape.com ran an article that had me laughing out loud at my computer. It was basically a “Sure Signs You’re Over 30<\/a><\/strong>” story for fitness junkies and the assessment was spot-on. They wrote about how us older gals may be up at 5AM, but it’s to head out on a run, not to stumble home from a big night out. Or how massages are now a part of our maintenance routines, not just an occasional indulgence.<\/p>\n

The article was truly amazing and a must-read for anyone who’s still going strong after the big 3-0. In fact, I couldn’t help but be inspired to think of my own amended version last night while in my favorite indoor cycling class. With the lights out and the music thumping I thought back to those fun nights 10+ years ago, which in no way resemble my “Game of Thrones” fueled evenings now.<\/p>\n

Those were the days! But boy am I glad they’re over. At any rate, without further ado, here are 6 things that never change, whether you’re a dance club kid or an indoor cycling class queen<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. In cycling class you still worry about what your butt looks like. Only now you’re wearing padded shorts which, let’s face it, don’t really flatter any figure.\"cycle<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. You still spill your drink on yourself on the bike. Only this time it’s water dribbling down your chin and onto your spandex top, not vodka<\/a><\/strong> red bull. Way less sticky!\"cycle\"<\/a>\n

     <\/li>\n

  3. You still whoop and holler when a great song comes on in the studio. But in the gym you know it means it’s time to grind gears up a hill whereas in the club it meant you would grind\u2026 well\u2026 never mind.\"instructor\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. You can’t exactly hear what the cute guy is saying to you\u2014in this case your instructor, who makes a lot of jokes during the ride\u2014but you smile along anyway.\"cycle<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. You still wear super tight and uncomfortable shoes. But at least cycling shoes don’t have heels! (At least not usually!)\"happy\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  6. When you walk out of the room at the end of the night\/ride you’re riding high. Of course it’s always been the endorphins<\/a> <\/strong>giving you this boost, obviously!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
