[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t criticize peloton or all the wackos will come out and bite you PP[/quote]

I am totally in the peloton cult, full disclosure, but in my opinion on this thread you have people actively poking the peloton community (i mean seriously stationary bike workouts are not new and its ridiculous to call it 'trash' unless you're trying to provoke a response).

I also think a lot of 'fit' people like to call peloton crap (and I think someone in this thread said it was for 'overweight female heffers' which like, super classy right there!) because they think it isn't like, 'real exercise'. Because they have devoted their life to a definition of fitness and exercise that involves a lot of lifting, a lot of hours at the gym, a lot of work. And they resent a bunch of normal people claiming they have achieved 'fitness' when what those people have achieved is not the fitness that they would consider successful.

It is very like, gym elitism IMO. Which is funny, because they think peloton riders are elitist, but they are the ones gatekeeping what 'effective exercise' means.

IMO, the peloton is just the scapegoat for this overall feeling. Lame loser people who are riding a bike (or running on a treadmill, or taking tae bo classes on a VHS tape) don't REALLY care about fitness until they are in the gym, lifting heavy and tracking their macros. And honestly I think those are garbage people who are doing nothing but limiting the number of people who will try to achieve C level or B level fitness while accepting that they will never be at A or A+ level fitness and they're FINE with it.
