[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a Peloton and an old treadmill and I love both.  I stream the Peloton app to an old HDTV set up in my basement to do their Tread boot camps with my treadmill.  Whatever equipment you buy needs to be something you love in order to use it regularly.  I don’t recommend making the investment to buy the Peloton if you don’t really love indoor cycling.  I have been taking indoor cycling classes for ten years and I used the Peloton app with a cheap spin bike for a year and a half before making the plunge to buy the Peloton bike.  I don’t understand people who buy it without ever having taken an indoor cycling class.

Following along with classes makes the workouts much more fun, IMO.  The instructors really know what they are talking bout, and they play really good fun music.  I am able to work out 5x a week using my home gym.  As a fulltime working mother with two kids, this is the only way of working out that I have found that fits into my lifestyle and that keeps me excited about working out.

+100.  Full time working mom of 4 kids - do cardio 5-6x a week.      I have peloton, treadmill and erg (I rowed in college).   Love my bike and treadmill      I do peloton app on treadmill which I actually like better than bike.   But being in my 40s and Decades is running, I have to watch on injuries.     If I had to choose order at this point it’s bike, treadmill, erg.   With the erg, you need very good technique to start and discipline to get results.  You can get that with other cardio workouts and weight training.  I use it as cross training and prevent injuries[/quote]

+1 from another mom who works full time. I get up and do Peloton workouts at 5:30 or 6 am and am until 7. Get the kids and myself ready, and we are out the door by 8. If I’m tired and need the extra sleep (like today) I will work out at 7:30 or 8 pm after they go to bed. I invested in the bike first then the Tread and love both!! The classes are great, very challenging, and the time flies by! Highly recommend. [/quote]
