[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another convert who didn't use to spin.  It's the instructors, the variety, the community, the feeling it inspires.  I know it sounds cultish but it's hard to explain until you get into it.[/quote]

Yes, exactly. I never took a spin class in my life either.  I can't compare to other spin bikes, but the bike itself is a solid piece of equipment and it's quiet when you're spinning. This is going to sound so cultish like the PP but this is more than a bike. It's a community and the instructors are like therapists.  You get an excellent workout in just a half hour or however long you choose to ride, but instructors are so motivating and inspirational that sometimes it feels like you got a therapy session along with your workout. It is kind of like having a personal coach motivating and inspiring you, not just in terms of the workout itself, but in life and making time for yourself, treating yourself well.  The community is great--I'm in a few different Peloton FB groups for my favorite instructors and it's a fun way to connect with others over you love of this bike, and you can ride with friends, family, etc. and give each other high fives along the way.  The music variety is incredible and the instructors tailor their rides to the music, so I've taken rides where the music just builds and builds until the final stretch and you just want to give it your all in that last song. I love that I can workout from home on my time and get in an amazing workout, and the rest of their content is excellent, as well.  I usually stack rides with strength and stretching, and it gives me the structure to get these workouts in.  As the PP said it's all hard to explain until you get it, and you'll see. [/quote]
