Your spinning instructor was right on when she said you need to add weight training to your workouts.

BENIFITS OF WEIGHT TRAINING:

*INCREASED MUSCLE STRENGTH, POWER AND ENDURANCE
*INCREASED BONE DENSITY
*DECREASED BLOOD PRESSURE, RESTING HEART RATE, AND "BODY FAT"
*IMPROVED BALANCE, POSTURE, AND COORDINATION
*INPROVED SELF-ESTEEM
*REDUCED RISK OF INJURY

You already have the cardio part down and I know that weight training can be boring. You said you work out at the YMCA. I am an instructor for the Y and we have a class called FLEXX. This is weight training in a class setting. The class is put to music and works all of your muscle groups at once. You might want to find out if they have one at your Y.

Let me know how it goes!
