A Peloton alternative for home
Peloton is a strong package of bike, screen and live classes. But many people already have a road bike, a smart trainer or dumbbells – and don’t want a second machine, just good training on the TV.
What to expect from an alternative
- Use your gear: your existing bike on a smart trainer, plus dumbbells or just bodyweight.
- Big screen: the workout on your TV, not on a small tablet.
- No fixed class schedule: train when it suits you – and for as long as suits you today.
Classes or how you feel?
Live classes motivate through the group and the instructor. The alternative: you say how you feel and how much time you have, and get a workout made for exactly that – even 10 minutes, even “just easy today”. What suits you better depends on whether community or flexibility keeps you going.
Two people, one TV
One rides, the other lifts – at the same time, in front of the same screen.
