Leave a Review Peloton
Great app even if you don’t have a Peleton bike
I purchased a Schwinn AC performance spin bike in late 2018 and later decided to join the peloton family. I initially found it hard to really have the immersive experience without the large Peloton display screen or the resistance metric, which should have simply been called gear like most other spin bikes. Plus, I really enjoyed my real spin classes on the weekends at my local LA Fitness, so I didn’t really spin at home much. Then the pandemic hit and I’ve never been so happy to spin at home in the basement which I’ve fixed up to look nicer since I’m down there so much more. I find the best classes for non-Peloton spin bikes are power zone since you can better follow those classes by hitting watt targets which all spin bikes should have with their optional power meters. My favorite instructor is Matt Wilpers, but Olivia and Christine are great too, and I’m taking more of Dennis Morton’s classes lately.Show lessE9Wayne
So much better that trying to do it on your own
I used to just plug into music in the gym but that became stale (and COVID stopped that). I picked up an indoor bike for free & thought I’d give this a go for the 30 day free trial). What a huge difference the ride along classes make. I started at the beginning, 5 classes done after a week and I’m going to buy a better bike (you don’t get much for free) today and accept the £13/month fee. I can’t justify a Peleton bike yet 💰but I will see. Going to give the yoga and walking classes ago also. They may not be ‘live’ but they’re engaging and time flys by. Obviously I can’t follow the setting they call out exactly but I try my hardest and after all at least I’m doing it.Show lessFinbarr
One of my favorite apps
I don’t have a peloton bike, but I am using my Apple Watch and cadence sensor on my bike and this app is amazing. I like using it for cycling, but I love the strength training too and the Pilates. There are so many options it is helping to keep me interested. Also, I’m not perfect and I took a break for a while, but I knew I should come back. I knew because I remembered all the great options and I told myself I would just do a brief strength training and that got me back on track. Obviously you have to show up and put in the work, but with so many options you actually have to be making an incredible amount of excuses to not do at least one of the activities on this app a couple of times a week. The instructors are so encouraging it is so helpful to remain engaged. The music is so much fun and you can see all the tracks. HIIT options are so much fun and you can really feel it even if it is only 10 minutes. Totally worth it!Show lessPeacebow
Peloton vs bow flex
Love the app. Only thing is I can only see cadence not resistance. I have to be paying attention to hear or read to see what we should be at.
Other than that it fantasticsdeze
Love all the options
I don’t currently have a Peloton bike but I am loving the workout option the provides.AShindle
Great Classes, App could be better
So far I think the classes have been great! I am only giving 4 stars because I think the app could be improved by adding a search function so we can find classes more easily.Lisanicflat
Developer Response
Noted! Thank you for your feedback.Love it... but
I absolutely love these workouts and the coaches. I’m working out a lot more than before thanks to the app. There’s only a couple things I’d like for the company to fix. 1, song selections can be pretty bad sometimes and I like most songs. There should be a way to down like a song, that way the company can get stats on what everyone is thinking. 2nd, there are really few hip hop running playlists with a girl instructor for 30 mins or higher. I think a lot of people would be interested in running for 30 min - 1hr at a jogging pace not training for a marathon, but there aren’t many options out there on the app for this. Can you please include more hip hop playlists for running?? 3. Lastly, I mainly use the outdoor running category, can you please build more here??
I like the Pilates so far and I hope that Peloton brings more of this! I’m waiting on my bike, it’s delayed by a month :( but, hopefully it will be as good as people say it is. For now I’m trying to keep up with running outside in the snow!Show lessscortez147
Best fitness app out there!
These classes are the best! Definitely a game changer! I add at least one of these workouts to my regular workout each day! The classes add variation to my workouts and keep me focused and motivated on those days where you feel a little less motivated to work out! So many instructors and classes to choose from and great music! Kendal Tool, Emma Lovewell and Jessica Simms are sure to please, every time and 30 days free with no strings attached, how can you possibly go wrong?!Show lessMaralee175
