Peloton Bikes - 2021 It’s a new day?

I think he's talking about when you use the Peloton app or connect your watch to Bike+. Once connected and permissions are set up, it uses your heart rate to measure calories lost as opposed to their generic formula that they show on the Bike without some kind of heart rate monitor.

 

Wrist HR monitors are extremely inaccurate. Some more so than others

 

This is pretty impressive

That’s not really what I’m concerned with. I just don’t want my calories counted twice. Because I use the Apple workout to track calories for all of my other exercise programs, I’d like to keep it consistent. I would rather undercount my calories with Apple than overinflate them with Peloton .

 

You could also change the permissions that Peloton has with your Health app. If you just wanted it to keep track of the workout time or something, you can do that in your settings.

 

Yeah, I just un-synced the Peloton app from my watch. Hopefully that works.

 

I’m trying to remember what I did because I think I was having this issue. It’s pretty much what rv12 said. Set up the permissions in the health app so that peloton will not write heart rate data. You can still have it read and share other data though. I think.

 

I changed some of the permissions, so I think I’m good. Thanks, everyone.

 

Likewise man. Set off to possibly hit 450 miles and ended with 706. Crazy how much better I feel after this month compared to previous, def changed my workout approach going forward.

Start resting up for a rematch

 

Fell just short of my July 300 mile goal, but the days I didn’t ride I was on vacation or exercised in a different way. Maybe I’ll get it in august

 

getting way too many shitty ass MGK songs on the pop punk rides these days

 

That gen z stuff from Kendall was so fucking cringey

 

Service been down for about 45 minutes now smdh. Good thing I have weights to do instead.

 

Bike arrives Monday

 

should be good now

 

Yep, just logged in and all good here

 

Where can I get a list of bros to ride/compete with?

Avoided the craze during covid but my partner and I pulled the trigger on the rental program on the Bike. It’ll be at her house, which I’m only at half the time, when I don’t have my kid, but if I take to it a lot, there’s a good chance I’ll get one, too.

Climbing is my primary workout and I jump rope and use a heavy bag as my primary cardio. My legs are definitely my weak spot so I’m hyped to get something that works them so extensively.

 

My doctor has confirmed I’m fat and need to exercise more. Haven’t been on my bike in about 2 months. Think I’m gonna start to ride at 0600 before work going forward.

 

There’s a #tmb that you can add/view members that way. Or you can post your user name and people can go add you

 

easy fella.

 

Somebody will by them out before they go belly up.
Surprised they haven’t canned the rower yet.

 

Feels like they definitely tried to do too much. The treadmill probably needs to go, too; I’m not sure their brand carries the weight in that market.

Should be noted I’m certain they scaled up massively during covid.

 

That said…when your first love is #Sneakers

 

You shut your whore mouth

 

I’d love to have the tread. Little on the higher end price wise. But i wouldn’t have room for it. But yeah they really fucked up. Had tons of problems scaling up during COVID and didn’t anticipate the draw down. They must make quite a bit on their apparel. I’m always getting emails about new merch.

 

It's shitty what's happened to Kendall's pop punk rides. They were the best thing on the platform for a while when she would just play 30 mins of classics that I knew every word to. I don't know if she's just run out of songs in the genre she knows or if some sort of Spotify / Kardashian / MGK / Record Label money started tainting these things but now every pop punk ride is like 3 good songs, 2-3 MGK songs, 2-3 new songs that stink, and like 1-2 not even pop punk songs

 

Are they more comfortable than these? We tried the standard ones on in the store and opted for the Altos because they’re drastically more comfortable.

The Nikes are like 1/3 the price of the Altos though so if they’re comfortable, I’ll gladly make the switch.

 

I know they had another music related lawsuit filed against them a few months back. Not sure what it affected tho.

 

Are these what you’re referring to? It looks like you can install any cleat, just want to make sure they’d work

How’s the sizing?

 

time to retake some of my favorite older rides, I guess. Only have 2 or 3 bookmarked right now.

 

I know the narrow seat is standard protocol for cycling but it’s awful. Just swapped it for a $30 joint from Amazon and it’s so nice.

 

Just an fyi, I think altering the bike in anyway voids the warranty.

 

I could put the original back on with no evidence of the change. It’s just like changing any bike seat.

 

Anybody having an issue where rides or classes you’ve previously taken are no longer showing up as taken? I talked to support and it’s a known issue. I did a couple different resets and nothing worked. Minor inconvenience but would be nice to have my check marks back.

 

Haha happened to me today. I didn’t realize it until about 5 minutes in. I knew it seemed familiar.

 

yeah, same for me. Was moving along and was like….wait, what is happening here??

 

Noticed that today and assumed it was an update gone wrong. Hopefully it gets fixed soon because I agree it’s annoying

 

Ya, the bike and interface has been a bit off recently. Bad timing
