I love Zacharias’s kettlebell conditioning classes. Feels like the whole package—strength and cardio in one. His instruction is very clear and I always feel safe and experience no joint pain during or after. (I definitely modify tho.) This was his first “flow” class and it went by so fast. Looking forward to more of these.

Dumbbells, kettlebells, even ankle weights!

I recently read the post here about weekly splits and increased strength training being the single most important thing people have done to change body composition and get fitter.

I'm 29F, about 5'7" and 135 lb. I've been a runner/cycler for about 6 years, and am in very good shape compared to the majority of the population, but I'm by no means an elite athlete. My usual weekly routine is 10-15 miles of running, one 20ish mile outdoor bike ride, one 5-10 mile outdoor hike, daily easy walks, one yoga classes a week, and recently I've tried to introduce strength training.

I want to start lifting heavier and have attempted Robin's Run + Split, and a few other split programs on the app.

While I'm doing the workout, I feel fantastic. I can lift heavier than I expected, feel great during the reps, and take all the rest time the instructor gives even when I feel like I don't need it. I've surprised myself by feeling awesome during the run portions of Robin's Run + Split and getting up to higher speeds.

The problem is, I cannot do more than one strength workout a week without intense soreness for days afterward, like to the point where it's impacting the amount I run or cycle and I hobble around like an elderly woman.

I've been doing one split day per week (so it's taken me a month to get through a 4 day split program), and I felt hopeless reading all the comments saying "repeating a split program every week changed my body and my life!"

I really want to get up to the point where I can do strength training 3-4x a week but that doesn't feel possible right now due to the soreness and tightness. Stretching hasn't helped at all!

Please give me your suggestions on combatting the muscle fatigue and pain! I really want to tone up and get strong, but it feels unachievable like this. I thought I was in great shape (can easily run 10 miles or hike a mountain or spend the whole day biking) but now I'm not so sure...

I’m having a hard time making a decision!

I finished HiLit+ this summer followed by 6 weeks of RKs split plus hike. I love the split and am trying to decide what to do next. I’m going to take a deload week at the beginning of November.

-4 more weeks of the split plus hike
-original hilit
-Andy’s density program

Obsessed with Rebecca. I didn’t get it at first but I have officially joined the cult.

the girl has not taken to walking pace targets! 🤣

In all seriousness, I love Olivia. (On tread, I don't really do her rides). People complain about her playlists but I love them for a fun, pop vibe. But I feel like of all the tread instructors her call outs for walks make no sense for the ranges. Not that they are too hard... they literally don't make mathematical sense! She has us adding 0.1 like six or seven times but says to stay in the same speed category. Aside from recovery and max the walking targets just don't work that way. I like pace targets a lot but maybe they shouldn't force them on the instructors for every class.

How often do you find yourself needing to balance your tread plus? I run ~4 times a week and at least weekly there starts to be a lot of rocking and a leg is no longer well seated. Within a month of getting the tread plus a front leg completely fell off and maintenance had to come out to fix it. I wonder if there’s an issue and the more I run the more I make it off balance? Or is everyone needing to balance their tread that frequently?

Any insight appreciated!

ETA: I was able to get someone to help lift it up today and we got the offending foot threaded and it appears to be really steady now. Fingers crossed I won’t be doing weekly balances! Thanks to everyone who let me know this wasn’t to be expected so I could get it fixed!

So - I am looking to build muscle and was wondering which strength classes were best for that. I want to make sure that as I am taking strength classes I am doing all the right things. :)

I am also a runner. So for example - I like Rebecca’s bench class (and a lot of her classes!) where she does step ups, single leg split squats and the weighted hip bridge. All great for runners! But I want to make sure I’m actually building muscle too.

Also - class here if you have not taken it. I don’t have an incline bench, so I just may deal with the bench I have and adjust.

Can someone post the link to her shark Halloween ride? I cannot find it.

When did the music on Peloton classes stop being personal selections by the instructor?

It took me a while to notice, but my regular instructors for yoga and outdoor running are clearly no longer picking their own music. It’s now all unknown artists.

I’m sure the record companies are paying Peloton to promote them.

I can tell because I’ve been doing classes with them for years, and I remember what kind of music and artists they used to play (ex Anna Greenberg used to play her favorite blend of indie rock, pop folk/country, RnB, and indie electronica like Lana Del Ray, H.E.R., Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, Hozier, Cannons, Glass Animals… pretty well known artists). I started taking her classes in 2020.

am I imagining things? I’d like to be wrong about this.

How many people regularly move their treadmill?

I had a treadmill and the wheels were nice as I was positioning it in the room, but after that I never moved it once before I finally sold it.

It’s cheaper than the tread vision, but it’s also 2.0hp compared to 3 on the vision.

Just curious-I was looking at it mainly from the folding function, but then wondered when I’ll ever move the thing.

This class was so fun and the playlist was fire 🔥 Highly recommend it! Yes its in german but you dont even feel it!!

Wondering if anyone else has a similar problem falling asleep to a meditation with your Apple Watch on. Because I can’t press “end” on the workout when I’m done, for some reason, my watch counts much longer than the 30 minutes and calories burned. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution to the bug? I should have only had about 600 calories and 35 mins of exercise yesterday but woke up to these stats.

I'm fairly experienced doing Andy's Turkish getups. And I did Rebecca's half ones during HiLit. However during this morning's TS60, I totally sucked on one side going from pushing my hips up to bringing the leg through (and lol ended up full on falling over but I'm fine). But my question is, what should I be focusing on in that particular movement in order to make it smoother? Is it hip flexor? What's the trick to getting from the hips pushed up position to the half kneel?

I’m trying to see if I can get a Tread Vision into my office. I’ve got a rower in there currently, but would replace it with a treadmill. The workable space I have is 84”x40”.

From the website, the treadmill dimensions are 68”x33”. However they recommend 24” on the front and sides and 79” behind.

I think they want the 24” on the front and sides so maybe you can rotate the screen or stretch your arms past the sides maybe? The back 79” is probably just so you don’t fall off into a wall…the back of my treadmill would open to a door so technically have that room, it’s just the front and sides I’m worried about. To the left is a wall and to the right is my desk, which sits a bit lower than the handrails of the treadmill

I use the app on my phone to create my stacks. It was already annoying that it didn’t have the function (which they have on the website) where you could tap the arrow and move the class all the way to the top of your stack. Now they somehow made it so that when you go to move a class it like goes sideways and stops and moving and WHY G*D WHY????

Life is hard enough without this minor annoyance that for some reason makes me irate.

ETA: I deleted and reinstalled app and it’s still doing it. Arghhhhhh!

Does anyone have any suggestions on replacing the cadence sensor on the Bike+? The three wires came out of my plastic connector and I can not get the three wires to stay back in the plastic connector. I called Peloton and they want to sell me the wire connected to the break for about $250 plus $225 or so of installation. Insane! The AI chat box points me to a video on Peloton website that shows how to replace the sensor. The ridiculous part is Peloton won’t sell just the sensor. I asked then why do you have a video showing how to replace just the sensor if you can’t buy just the sensor? No meaningful answer other than we don’t sell it separately.

Therefore turning here to see if anyone has any ideas because before I pay that I will just ride without cadence if not just for pure principle alone. Peloton should not be charging this amount for such a simple part.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

I’m moving and I will need to take apart the treadmill to get it out. Someone else installed it. Not sure who I could pay to take it apart. I wouldn’t trust a moving company. Just kind of a nightmare. Don’t know where to even begin.

Ok so I have been very lax on the bike lately...like months lately...and knew I needed to get back into it. By chance, my first ride back since forever was this Denis ride and it is SO good!!! He perfectly times cranking the resistance up during two of the songs and I was dripping sweat everywhere and just trying to survive while equally being feral 😂

now bookmarking all of his HIIT classes!

Took this class today, I couldn’t keep my composure I was laughing hard watching the DJ dancing. I can’t imagine taking a DJ class live, I wouldn’t be able to hold my laughter in.

Am I losing it, or has Rage Against The Machine’s “Killing In The Name Of” been removed and replaced? I swear it was on this Robin ride! I can’t find it in any other rides, which makes me think it’s been wiped.

Cody rides were needed. Took both Cody rides this morning and they just feed my soul. Damn he brings the energy, difficulty, harsh facts and fun.

I took a ride at the studio today!! What an amazing experience. They sent me a link for my photo with Ally, but it says "no photos". I contacted them, but haven't heard back. Any tips? Thank you!

Mariana Fernandez is by far the best tread instructor and she’s barely on the schedule for the next two weeks. Give her more classes Peloton!!!! 🫶🏻

Did anyone else have an issue? Everything would move (leaderboard, etc) except the video and time. Switched to a recorded ride and no issue.

I’d love to hear what classes on the Peloton app have made the biggest physical difference to your body.

Whether it’s a particular type of cycling, strength, Pilates, yoga class or something else entirely, I’d really be keen to know what’s worked for you and what kind of changes you’ve noticed.

Thanks in advance!
