I have the bike. I know people have different preferences, mine is biking and I love that. I also know someone who love to run, they have a tread. If you want to check out how good Peloton is and what meets your needs better, just get a digital subscription first - before buying the bike or tread.

I love mine. It’s cheaper than a gym membership amortized over two years in my city and has allowed me much more flexibility (app use in hotel gyms on treadmill, strength programs, use when little kids are asleep and spouse is out, etc)

I’m happy for the people here who like it, but it is a crazy expensive subscription service. For no good reason! Does it really need to be three times as much as Netflix?

I understand where you are coming from, but monthly spin memberships are $150+/month. Throw is eliminated travel time and $40/month is a steal.

($40 is monthly subscription excluding any finance payments.)

We financed over two or three years. My wife canceled her monthly credits for spin classes and running club; and I expense the monthly component through EY. It was a cash flow positive investment for us.

Also, LOVE it.

It was one of the best investments I've made. I can clip in at 8 or 9 p.m., perfect for the consulting lifestyle!

Let's say Family consists of husband , wife and a kid .

I started working out and cleaned up my diet with the main goal being weight loss, but I'm really frustrated.

It's been a month, I feel like the effort I put in is huge and exhausting, but I haven't lost a pound, although I can see there's been a bit of muscle gain and I lost half an inch from my waist.

How do I find the motivation to keep going when I feel like the progress is so minimal?
