My wife is interested in this, and the convenience factor would be huge for us with two kids. Could finally scrap the elliptical that takes up half of one of our bedrooms and put this where ever we want in the house.
Still crushing 2-3 times a week. Absolutely loving it. I hit my first 500+ total output in a 45 min class two rides ago. Hit about 480 this morning. I've lost about 10 more pounds How do you see your total mileage?
500 for a 45 min class? Nice! My max is 531 for 45. I rarely do classes that allow me to get close to that again as Im mainly focusing on HR and PZ classes. Whats your user name? If you go to pelotoncycle.com and log into your account, you can go to your "profile" and there is a tab near the top center of the page that says 'download workout history"
Just got ours. Delivered and set up by the company dudes. Very cool tech. First ride I rolled through Argentina, 30 min, 9 miles, 186 output
No worries. Enjoy the bike! Let me know if you have any questions. My user name is The_Plumbus if you want a follower
Just added you. I’m prolly not using it much (play soccer mostly) but looking forward to this in the winter when that’s tougher
Just ordered it to help makeup workouts when kids and work are too crazy. Excited to give it a go when it comes next week.
Update: lost 60 pounds in 6 months (240 pounds to 180). Still spin at least twice a week and constantly lead my class in miles and energy output.
Question for the guys with a bike: is the monthly service for the household or one individual rider? Would my wife and I need separate subscriptions?
Gonna pull the trigger on this too. Getting too hard for the wife and I to hit the gym with a baby. Worth to get the family pack with the bike?
Was talking with the delivery guy yesterday during setup. They deliver between 250-300 of these around Atlanta daily. Enjoying it so far
I believe if someone has bought a bike they get a referral code and you get $100 off accessories. Per Reddit.
Alternative option: My wife does the Peloton App on an IPad which gives you the same Live and On Demand classes. You’re just not linked in with the instructor on Lives. $13/month Bought her a great quality spin bike on Amazon for under $300 delivered. iPad attachment and accessories under $100. She follows this black instructor who’s popular in the Peloton community 3-4 days a week. Total investment: around $360 Sex has increased 400%
I’m considering doing the finance deal. It locks you in for 39 months, which kind of sucks, but the cost is what we spend on two memberships to our spin studio. For our guys with bikes, how much do you love it?
One thing that’s nagging at me is my fear that my height will be a problem. I’m 6’5” and have read that I’d be at the very top end for rider height.
Took a month off in November and road the pst two days. Good lord I lost a lot of progress taking 45 days off.
yeah I moved a few weeks ago and it knocked me off schedule for 2 weeks. when I got back on, I thought I was going to die. cruising strong again now
I'd like to get a peloton. But it's very expensive, and I can't get past the idea that my house looks nothing like the houses that are in the commercials for these things.
This is a great article, actually a great website, for useful info. Detraining on a bike actually starts in as little as 3 days off. https://roadcyclinguk.com/how-to/si...now-about-detraining.html#LWq3KJuqRsEaHkW3.97
I think she also bought a cadence tracker, but when I do it I don’t use it. I usually just go to the beat of the music
Finally got shoes, first ride is today. 30minute beginner ride and death shortly after is what I plan to do.
Cranked out a 30 minute Rigsby advanced beginner ride. Output was 210 and had a little more left in the tank. Plan on going up to 45 minutes tomorrow. I’m a big fan of the instructor lead class and experience. Kept me honest throughtour.
Do it. It’s way better for the price. You can even scrap the iPad connector and just transfer the app through a TV instead
Big fan of going off of what the playlists are like from each instructor. Ok that and if there's any noticeable talent. Like one of the guy instructor rides on 12/10, had a woman that kept distracting the instructor with her cleavage
