[quote=Anonymous]I’ve been pretty consistent with taking 3 Peloton strength classes a week at home with heavy dumbbells (I have dumbbells that go up to 50 pounds each at home). I really like how I can do it on my own time and I enjoy the instructors. I’ve taken a few of the actual programs Pelotok offers (Discover Strength, Stronger You, etc) and I’m starting to actually track my weights so I can focus on progressive overload (before I was just doing what felt heavy enough as I got into the habit). I know how to find the right weight to use (be able to do 6-8 reps and not much more with good form). My spouse lifts weights at the gym and is telling me I need to go to a gym and start using barbells. I would like to do that eventually, but again, I really like that I can do the peloton classes on my own time and I really enjoy them! Am I wrong in thinking that I can get strong and lean through Peloton classes and heavy dumbbells (for example, I’m doing 25 pounds in each arm for squats right now) at home for at least the next six months without having to do barbell lifting at the gym?
