[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I ride 5-6 times a week.  I normally do a 30 minute class but sometimes do a 45 or two 20 minute classes.  I do a stretch class after every ride.  I also try to do 1-2 strength classes a week.  That could add up to around 15 individual classes a week.

On a slightly unrelated note I don't think warm up and cool down rises should count toward your ride total.  Or maybe they should be their own category.  The people I know who have taken 1000s of rides often take a lot of those rides which I feel like unfairly pads your numbers.  [/quote]

There's usually some form of argument about this on the Peloton facebook page. I can't understand why it matters! What is unfair about it? Unfair to whom? There's no actual competition - why does it matter if someone else has 1000s of rides? If YOU feel like the 5 minute cool down/warm up rides shouldn't count towards YOUR total, then YOU delete them.

I agree that this doesn't matter much, what gets my goat is how the cool down rides impact my average output numbers. I think metrics in those rides should be able to be turned down. Sometimes I am weirdly compelled to KEEP PUSHING in a cool down ride because of the leaderboard but that is counter productive! I try to hide it but the fact that I know that its there gets in my head.

My average output would be over 200 if not for those rides! I could delete them but I like to keep them in for total burned calories as I will frequently use the cool downs to push me over the next 100 mark in calorie burning. [/quote]
