  • The best of the subscription workout apps

    I do not own a peloton. I own a nordictrack treadmill, for which i used iFit for 1 year. It was awful. Tough interface, poor workouts, poor selection, hard to find what i wanted and hard to schedule. Then I tried Studio. It was better than iFit but only worked on my iphone and i wasn’t fond of the interface or selections. Last I tried the Peloton app, which is far and away the best subscription workout app. Streams beautifully on my iphone and ipad, works seamlessly with my airpods and apple watch, and works via airplay on my apple TV. There are countless workouts which are easy to find and sort (sort by duration, difficulty, type of workout, instructor, music style, etc). I have used it both at home and on the go and can always find something inspiring to get me a good workout in. The app is clearly well thought out and feels very professional. Worth every penny! Your search for the perfect workout app has ended!

  • Small investment for huge rewards

    I’ve been using the app since March 2019. This is the first time I have stuck through with any sort of consistent activity for so long that didn’t involve me training for a race. Speaking of which, I used the app to train for a 10k PR. I am now using it to train for my first half marathon.

    The treadmill, cycling, boot camp, yoga, stretching, strength and meditation classes are top notch. There is at least one instructor in each class category that you will love. In my case, I’m a huge fan of Becs, Rebecca, Matt, Denis, Jess, Ross, Matty, Selena, Christine, and Cody. They have done a really good job hiring a diverse team of instructors with a variety of backgrounds and teaching styles. I tried several of the top fitness apps before settling on Peloton.

    The app is really well-made. The only thing I wish it had was the option to stack workouts, which would come in handy for outdoor runs (yes, they’ve got coached outdoor runs, too.) There is so much content on this app and new classes are added every day. I don’t see myself using anything else anytime soon.

  • Best Fitness App EVER!

    I don’t usually write reviews, but I wanted to go out of my way to write this one and thank Peloton for making exercise something I actually look forward to. I started with Peloton Digital six months ago and I am incredibly thankful that I tried it out. I enjoy outdoor running, but I’ve always dreaded the treadmill. With the Peloton Digital treadmill workouts, I now look forward to my treadmill time. I’ve become faster and built up my endurance, and the results look and feel amazing. The instructors are fantastic (especially my fave, Robin Arzon) and the time goes by so quickly when I am doing these workouts. I’ve also started taking the strength training classes and I love that I can get them done in 20 minutes or less with little to no equipment. These workouts really are accommodating to all levels of fitness, and the instructors are supportive and make you feel good. They are so much better than any personal trainer I’ve ever had and at a fraction of the cost. In short, I love Peloton Digital and I highly recommend giving it a try.

  • Breathe new life into your workouts !

    Wow! I am enamored with this app. The classes are quick, Engaging and have immediate results. I’ve never been a big gym rat and prefer to be outside during all seasons. I have been running fun runs with peloton and I’m excited every day to get out and meet a new instructor and even hear different music. Every class I have taken the instructors are precise in body positioning which prevents injuries and also makes what you are trying to do easier and of course Beneficial. It is so easy to come out of form and then often the exercise you are working so hard to do is loosing its power ! So far I have found wonderfully inspiring teachers who you know are one hundred percent genuine and legit in their own personal lives. I have been into fitness for many years but this is different than anything I’ve done , it is encouraging, tough but gentle and spot on accurate when targeting areas of the body to tone and strengthen.
    I’m so excited to be part of the peloton family. My abs have never looked and FELT so good ! Being able to be anywhere and do a ten minute or hour long class leave you with no excuses !
    Shine on peloton.... I know with your help I sure will ✨💪🏻!

  • Exercise addict

    My orthopedic surgeon told me I was a classic exercise addict when I was sitting in his office a few years ago for my 3rd knee surgery in as many years. I was a mixed martial artist, a CrossFitter and an all around glutton for punishment when it came to the way I treated my body.
    If it didn’t hurt, I wasn’t interested. My husband told me to look at Peloton but I was never interested in cycling because it didn’t seem intense enough. Well... after much coaxing, I bought a Peloton and I freaking loved it from the minute I started. Totally surprised myself. The other thing I didn’t count on was the community. Similar to what I was used to in CrossFit and in fighting. Peloton has built a wonderful platform that everyone feels welcome. I also didn’t count on the amazing content that this app has. It’s not just about the bike or the tread. It’s about workouts I can do when I travel for work. Everything from strength workouts to outdoor running to yoga and meditation. It’s worth every penny. And the instructors... I realize none of them know me, but they are a big part of my life. They are knowledgeable and vulnerable and real and inspiring on so many levels. I highly recommend this app, the bike, the tread and everything this company does.

  • The BEST!!!

    We have the Peloton bike at my house because my dad got it as a birthday present, and he’s been trying to get the rest of us to start using it too. When he told me that Peloton has an app and is more than just biking, I decided to try it. Best. Decision. Ever. I’ve been working out for a while now, but I never really got sweaty or made the most of my workouts. Boy has that changed! The instructors are so inspiring (special shoutouts to Olivia Amato and Matty Maggiacomo) and I now work up a sweat in every workout I do. I used to hate running and so I was really reluctant to try a treadmill workout, but I went for it and I actually enjoyed it! For anyone on the fence about Peloton, let this be your sign that you should just go for it because you definitely won’t regret it! (PLUS... your whole family can make accounts with no extra monthly charge!) This app motivates me to push harder in my workouts and it’s awesome. The only complaint I have: you should be able to rate the workouts/instructors in the app after you take the classes. You can do that on the bike tablet, but not the app for some reason. Otherwise, love it!!

  • Best thing I've done for myself in a long time

    I've had the app now for a little over a year, and this has been the most I've worked out consistently in a couple of decades. I had belonged to an expensive gym, and the only classes I really wanted to go to were the spin classes, but I hated going to spin class. Trying to get there on time to get a bike, and dealing with a room full of smelly people, me included, plus not always understanding what the instructor was saying made me not like it so much. I quit the gym, bought a spin type bike, with attachments for my iPad, cadence monitor, heart rate monitor, spd clip pedals, and I haven't stopped getting on the bike. The instructors are great. I figured out which ones suit me best after a few months, the music is great, and I can hear and understand the instructions perfectly. I have a little table next to my bike to keep my hand weights and extra water. I love this so much. I've lost fat and have developed muscle tone. There's been a recent update where I can attach my cadence and heart rate monitors to the Peloton app which is fantastic. Thank you for that. Some day, I'll be able to get the actual bike, until then, this works perfectly for me.

  • Audio running is not updated as frequently

    I love the app, the instructors and the selection of music and class offerings for any level. The class I use most is the “Audio Running,” which I tune into during my lunch while at work. Unfortunately it seems -unlike the other classes- it is not updated that often and does not offer a huge selection of levels, class times or range of music compared to the other classes on the treadmill, bike, yoga, etc. I have had to repeat classes, which has become monotonous. I emailed customer service and received a prompt response that the audio classes are updated bi-weekly but the service rep was unable to tell me exactly when I could expect new classes. The last time the “Audio Running” was updated was February 28, 2019 for a 45 min class. It’s now mid-March. For me, so far I am not receiving my money’s worth since this is the primary class I take. Hopefully Peloton will add more “Audio Running” classes every week instead of only twice a month...The other classes are updated on a daily from what I can tell.

  • Subscription fitness at its best!

    Been using the app for workouts for the last 4 months and I am obsessed with it. Am particularly keen on the treadmill workouts - I love running outdoors but it’s not always practical and boy does this app take away from the monotony of treadmill running. It even spurred me on to my faster 5k, 10k and 1 mile distances for the last 3 years in the short time I have been using it. I love the ranges provided so you can measure profession by taking the same class, the instructors are inspiring, the user experience is sleek and uncomplicated. I too would love to be able to interact with my contacts a bit more (get notifications of them finishing workouts etc.) and see if they signed up for the same live classes - there is a sense of community already but I think it could be built on. As an app user, I’d love the ability to rate the workouts after I complete them to more easily return to the ones I enjoyed most. Personally a bit more information on the run itself would be useful I.e 4 min work up, followed by 3 min sprint intervals followed by 3 mins hill intervals etc. But these are minor points - I have already converted 5+ friends to the app and am thinking of getting the treadmill itself because I love the whole idea so much! #teampeloton

  • Glad it’s now in the UK!

    So glad I can now use this in the UK. I only have a basic spin bike and have done my first class but found it easy to keep up with the cadence and resistance. The instructor was so motivating and the tracks were insane. Also good that I could log in via my laptop and cast to my tv in front of my bike.

    I’ve been using Studio Sweat for spin for a few years but got bored with there only being 1 or 2 new classes every few weeks that I wanted to do. Now I have a massive library to choose from and it looks like there a lot of new classes every day so I hope to get my mojo back and actually look forward to spinning again! Will also check out the other classes so I can do some weights.
