'I felt comfortable enough to give it my all at a Taylor Swift spinning class'

I think part of the reason all previous attempts to become a person who exercises regularly have failed is because I’ve been too ashamed of where I was starting. 

Nicole Glennon says she feels secure in spinning class and has found herself getting stronger and enjoying the classes

I’ve never been a sporty person. As a child, I was always picked last for the football team, and my secondary school habits included trying to find a way to get out of PE and fully embracing the bookish nerd stereotype. 

I enjoyed ballet and swim classes pre-puberty, but as body insecurities heightened with every passing year, I gradually ditched these, not wanting to be seen in a leotard/swimming costume.
