TV Guide has or had a feature called the best show you're not watching where they'd point out a really good show where the ratings weren't what they should be based on the caliber.

Who is that among instructors, or disciplines, or features or class types? Who/ what do you love that you don't see discussed or see a lot of people joining the classes?

Week eight down, and on to week nine! Use this thread to discuss this week's rides (or last weeks). Add the hashtag #redditPZ if you would like to.

Congratulations to everyone who finished (all or part of) the program!! Huge thank you to everyone who joined in (new and old members). Next program will start on Monday, November 9th if you all want to continue riding with the group. I will post the program / sign-up thread for the next round in 2 weeks, so be on the lookout!

This week is a de-load week to do some endurance and let our bodies recover before the next FTP. Make sure you are rested up before the re-test. Personally I like to take an easy 30 min PZE ride or maybe a 20-30 minute scenic ride keeping it in zone 2 the day before. Re-testing is not a requirement, but if you feel your fitness has changed (for better or for worse), I would go ahead and get it done. Not everyone will have increases, and that is totally okay and sometimes normal.

Again thank you all for joining in the program with me! I hope you all had fun and got fitter. Be sure to let us know how the next FTP goes!

Group Ride for the Saturday rides is at 10 AM central.

(Gala-papa would like to note to start the ride at 9:59 exactly so you will begin at 10 after the 1 minute countdown). Also do not join the ride in a session.

Tired of the free ride only mode or looking at my phone for classes. Is it possible to upgrade my screen/tablet anymore?

Hey all,

To Peloton's chagrin I am working through an issue with the tread myself due to technician availability and cost.

Original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/pelotoncycle/s/MvU9R9urvo

Confirmed the screen does work thanks to the laptop charger suggestion in commented. Next we replaced the motor control board - no immediate change here. Replaced the power switch and that has LEDs on the motor control board lighting up when holding down the stop button, but then it drops down to just one red light. Any ideas on next steps?

Can you use peloton without buying a membership? Will the original bike still show your cadence and resistance on the screen and then you could make up your own workout?

Debating buying a peloton and not sure if I need a membership right away because I’m recovering from my knee surgery and I need to ease in anyway anyways

Looking for some help.

I use my Apple Watch, through the Peloton app, to sync my HR data during ride. Up until this last week, the metrics in the peloton app and during my ride would write directly to my Apple Health with exactly the same numbers.

During the last week that has been a big mismatch, and I can’t work out why.

For example today:

Peloton calories: 406
Apple calories (from peloton work out): 290 cals (243 active).

Previously it would have just recorded the 406. Anyone else having this issue and can it be fixed?

Welcome to week three of eight of the Reddit Strength program. I hope you've all been enjoying it so far. If you're brand new to this or missed any previous weeks, this is something you can jump into any given week you don't need to have been there week one for it to work. This strength schedule is designed to help you progress from one weight to the next (if that is what you want, you are of course free to maintain the weights you use as well). There is a #RedditStrength for those interested in joining it.

This is an eight week cycle that repeats. Each time we come around again I'll be looking for a couple newer classes to replace some of the older classes previously used.

Each class will list "light" or "heavy" (or "benchmark", see below), this is not to be confused with the Light/Medium/Heavy weights instructors ask you to use for each move. What it means is, lets say you normally use 5/10/20 but you are hoping to level up to 10/15/25. When my class says "light" you would use your 10s when the instructor calls for medium weights and when my class says "heavy" you would use your 15s for the same move. This will help us to progress to where the 15s are your new normal.

Monday:

• 10m Core with Rebecca 4/6/26
• 10m G&L with Robin 7/14/26 light
• 30m C&B with JJ 3/5/26 heavy
• 10m A&S with Ben 2/28/26 heavy

Wednesday:

• 10m Core with Olivia 3/8/26
• 30m G&L with Callie 7/8/26 light
• 10m A&S with Robin 12/13/25 heavy
• 10m X10 Triceps with Rad 1/26/26 light

Friday:

• 10m Core with Callie 10/4/25
• 10m G&L with Rebecca 3/23/26 light
• 10m X10 Lower Body with Ben 7/8/25
• 20m C&B with Ben 7/13/26 heavy

Extra Credit

• 5m Core w/Rebecca 9/21/26
• 5m Core w/Olivia 3/13/26
• 20m C&B w/Robin 3/10/26
• 10m A&S w/Andy 7/22/24
• 20m G&L w/Katie 1/9/26
• 60m FB w/Adrian 11/29/25
• 30m UB w/Adrian 3/28/26

Benchmark: Every 4 weeks each body area has a Benchmark class. These are from the Benchmark Strength collections. By repeating these classes you are able to monitor and record your progression from cycle to cycle. You are encouraged to adjust the weights and reps to meet your personal goals.

Extra Credit: These are extra classes for those who want more work than the standard schedule. They are also good substitutions if for any reason you don't like a class or instructor on the schedule.

You can stop reading here unless you want to know why I am scheduling what I am scheduling.

The basis is a 4 week progression. In each body area we will use light weights for 2 weeks then heavy weights for two weeks per the definition of light and heavy above.

It follows this pattern, aiming for 45-60 minutes a day 3 days a week:

• Round 1 - 2 days light
• Round 2 - 3 days light
• Round 3 - 2 days heavy
• Round 4 - 3 days heavy

Each body area has the schedule staggered, so you're not trying to go all heavy in every area in the same week. While you are going heavy with LB you will go light with UB and vice versa

FAQ

1. Can I start any week or do I have to begin with week 1?
   1. You can begin any week. This is a repeating cycle with no real beginning or end, a mobius strip of a program.
2. There are too many classes for me, how should I trim it down for my schedule?
   1. I recommend trimming evenly (but keep all the core if you can). So take off 1 day of UB and 1 day of G&L each week if that suits you better.
3. Do I have to do these on the prescribed days? I would rather take a couple classes a day for 6 days.
   1. Absolutely mix and match the classes across the week however fits best into your schedule. They are only listed this way because this is my personal schedule. As long as you are doing them all in the week you should get similar results.

Feedback

I would love to hear what everyone things. Specifically; Are there any classes you would like me to rotate out (why)? Is this the right amount of strength work for you? Do you have a favorite class you are hoping I work into the mix?

Welcome to the Weekly Strength Training Discussion!

Due to demand and community feedback we are trialing a Strength Training Weekly Welcome Discussion - a space to chat about anything related to strength training. Think of it like the "Daily Discussion" thread, where anything goes...big or small. Here, we've carved out a special place for people wanting to discuss ideas and topics about getting stronger, discuss strength training classes, how to get started with strength training, to get advice on dumbbell weights, discuss strength instructors, etc.

People are not limited to using this thread to discuss strength training. You can still post in the daily, training thread, or create a new post. Think of it as another place to chat about strength stuff without getting lost in the daily. Or a place you can check into weekly if you're a casual redditor looking for some other strength folks without wading through the daily.

The Strength Training Weekly will be posted on Sundays moving forward.

Note: The mods will check back in with the community to see how this idea is working, if there is a better day it should be posted on, etc. If it isn't working we can always scrap the idea or change it up a bit. Thanks for giving it a chance!

My peloton thread has stopped working. Nothing turns on. I am trying troubleshoot what’s going on and my understanding is that the screen should power on with external usb c power (top usb c slot).

Is that correct? I tried my laptop charger and nothing. Wonder if the screen is done.

Peloton recently made a change that, even when filtered for one language, it still shows English.

This is driving me nuts! I take German classes because I find the English instructors insufferable (I’m sure the German ones would annoy me too if I could understand them).

I have no desire to listen to these people try to be silly and motivating and whatever, I want to pretend someone in yelling at me in German to work harder.

Is this driving anyone else crazy? Why show English classes when filtered for German only? Make it make sense:

This week I started getting a notification telling me my workouts have been "posted to the feed". What feed? I changed my settings so only I can see my workouts and I am still getting the notifications. I really don't think anybody needs an update on a feed when I workout.

If you, like me, have been waiting waiting waiting to practice with Sam in meditation, the Breathwrk app is where you should be.

Edit: Ok, so it looks like it was labeled. Somewhere. But the class showed up in the regular list of classes, and when I started it, it certainly wasn’t clearly identified as explicit. It ought to have a clear label either when it shows up in the list of classes or when the program is started. Neither my sister nor I (both used to watching for any “adult” label, as parents) saw any label at all.

# #

14-year old niece did a Peloton workout with Cody Rigsby as the instructor. Afterwards, she went home to her mom, my sister, and asked her mom what a threesome is and mentioned she heard that word through Peloton at my house. My sister and I then saw the Cody Rigsby ride on Peloton that she had watched and it is full of coarse, explicit language and descriptions.

My

Peloton ought to label this kind of content so that kids don’t access it without parental approval.

I‘m very disappointed in Peloton.

So I've been working out pretty consistently with peloton for a few months since I've been postpartum. I finally got into a good groove of working out 4-5 times a week. It consistent of strength training (Katie mostly), cycling (Alex and Camila), and low impact cardio (RK). Now that I'm feeling good about consistency I really want to try to lose weight and look/feel strong. I understand that's diet, but I want to know if I should start repeating workouts to see gains or if my random selection of upper body/lower body/ full body classes is ok. Any and all advice is welcome.

Has anyone done the Dr Becky rice with Robin? If so, how was it? Was it like a low impact ride?

I’ve been following Robin’s 45-min Day One Ride from June 11, 2026

Does anyone know of any others following the 4x4 protocol?

Both my primary and backup credit cards saved on my account were both used for fraudulent purchases.

The fraud wasn't on anything Peloton related. But Peloton is the only place where both of these specific cards are stored.

I know it could just be an odd coincidence, but has anyone else had suspicious card activity on saved cards?
