Updated! I just bought a Peloton!

[Anonymous 1]

Did it arrive?

Yes it did! I have only joined one live ride and done one prerecorded, so I was going to give it another day or two before I updated.

The one thing I’ll say is that the Peloton app gives you access to far more content than I realized. I’ve actually done two short stretching classes and a yoga class too! They also have strength, bootcamp, and audio for outdoor running and walking. I definitely think it’s not a bad deal at all for $39.

Eeek, I am excited for you!

I wonder if I would like to use the app with my trainer.

I use Zwift, so it adjusts the tension and I pretend I am going up and down hills and through cartoon scenic areas and such. It's OK. I have done some free YouTube spin classes. I like them "sort of", as my bike is a real bike, so it's a bit different than adjusting a stationary spin bike. But Idk, the app sounds tempting to trial.

Most of the instructors are telling you the amount of resistance you should put on the Peloton bike, so I think it might be frustrating for you. But I will say I received my Peloton on Friday, and I’ve already ridden 40 miles.....,

I think you’ll like it, but I will warn you it’s not nearly has generous as the bikes at my gym for calories burned . That may be because the bikes at my gym are probably set for short 20 year olds that weigh 150 pounds and I’m tall, skinny, and almost 45 .

Well this is a new troll direction.

Purchasing exercise equipment would be a very odd thing to troll about.

Unless that particular piece of exercise equipment has been in the media lately due to an unfortunate commercial which caused a lot of scrutiny and discussion, not to mention memes. In which case it's still a troll but a seemingly "harmless" one because the troll in question wants the attention but not the backlash or controversy of say a baby momma post.

It was only controversial to those that saw controversy in it. The commercial was fine.

Reading is your friend. I said baby momma posts are controversial. The commercial was unfortunate and recently scrutinized in media which would make is a "safer" thing to troll about. I did not say I found the commercial to be controversial.

Reading is your friend too. The commercial (which I didn't find unfortunate) did cause controversy. It's unfortunate that it did, but c'est la vie.

Cool.. I'm way too cheap for that. I'm not spending $2000 on a bike plus the per month fee for classes. I have other things I'd rather spend the money on.. I talked DH out of it and into a cheaper version with a cheaper subscription because I am picky about what I like to spend money on. LOL

So then what was the point of quoting Me to say "The commercial was only controversial to those who saw controversy in it" when I did not claim I saw controversy in it nor did I say it was controversial?

Two reasons. 1. "The commercial was only unfortunate to those who saw unfortuness in it" sounds stupid. 2. To point out that some actually felt that commercial had controversy in it.
