Peloton
I promise I will update on health soon. But things are on the upswing these last 3 weeks. I have begun to tell people about it, but I want to wait another week or so until I blog about it. Just because I don't want anything jinxed and theres still a small chance things can go back to square 1.
One recent awesome thing in my life recently has been the peloton app. I have been obsessing over their spin bike with the tv attached for almost a year now. It has great content for spin, running, walking, yoga, stretching, meditation and strength. I almost pulled the plug and bought the bike. But at over $2,000 and by owning the bike the app goes up to $40 from $20 (if you use the app alone with no bike), the pricetag made me gag a little.
So I invested in a cheaper but sturdy Sunny bike and bought wahoo adapters to track my cadence and speed. I have found an app that I can cast a class onto my large screen tv so I literally feel like I'm there as long as my dog doesn't freak out over me spinning.
THANK GOD I did that. I am on this thing almost everyday. I love the instructors and get to follow them on social media as well. And I am damn proud I didn't spend the money on the bike. Yes, it would be nice to own one. You have all your data collected in one spot and you are a part of the leaderboard so you can race against the hundreds to thousands of people that are in class. You can take a class live or on demand.
Recently they did an update so you can lower the volume of the instructors voice and listen to the music more if you wanted. This update, if you bought the bike in 2015, causes your tv on your bike to not work. A replacement tv is $600, but since you have to replace it due to the update, its 'only' $400.
Peloton is def a growing company, they will be coming out with a rower in the next year or two. Which is exciting for me because I love rowing, thank you Orange Theory. So my next investment will either be a concept 2 or a water rower like OT has. Both very good rowers, but both have different maintenences.
At the end of the day, if you are an OT addict or like me have a hard time getting to the gym because of living 25 miles away and need a good workout at home. Peloton app is the way to go. I have done every single class they have offered.
