I hated biking previously.. and I have not missed a day riding my bike since I bought it. They found a way to game-ify it, and I am pretty addicted to it (as well is my wife). She does all the non-bike stuff using the TV, she loves those.. I still go to the normal gym for weights

Tread+ was scheduled for delivery April 6. Just got moved to March 18!!

As an avid poster to the Stocks thread, I wonder if this is because cancelled orders or increased capacity?!

Thought I could retest after a long birthday weekend away and not eating great today. Stupid

If you can, make your first ride a live ride. Live rides are so much fun.

I'm guessing increased supply capacity

Peloton options it is...

Thanks to whoever used my promo code

Are you joining us in the morning?

(arm twisted) I'll be there

One last question (well probably not).

I assume both bikes will let you sync up with the Apple AirPods?

yes the do..I have a silicone strap that connects them around my neck so if they fall out they are not lost for the ride.

items I always need
1, Water
2. Fan (makes a huge difference in performance)
3. Towel
4. Soche Heart rate monitor...Apple watch won't connect on older bikes

I have used my Bluetooth headphones many times with my bike and it's 2 years old.

A while back I started a 60 minute ride, about ten minutes in wiped a small bead of sweat, sat my towel on the ledge right beside our bike with too much flick, it went over the ledge and down the stairs. LOL. A little later I just got off the bike to grab a fresh towel.

Been there, it sucks


BTW...TBird, I added you on Strava

Going to try to join you tomorrow at 5, I'll have to jump off and rush to work immediately after but could swing it.

It the Apple integration and swinging screen worth the extra cost of bike+ ?

Love riding with y'all, even if Nitro beats my output by 400

Lol he does that to dang near everyone haha. Nitro is a beast!

Forgot I'd meant to check back in here at the end of the challenge. Ended up doing another FTP test (moral supportfor wife more than anything--hers jumped WAY up again, but she's on a different trajectory coming back from having a baby, and this being her first PZ challenge), but it'll probably be my last one for awhile--like I said, my current zones kick my tail, even though I try to train at the top of 'em. Just want to build on that for a bit. But overall the growth in the last challenge was crazy for me, spacing the rides out really helped me personally. I'd plateaued pretty steadily before, but jumped a lot during this one, PR-wise:



Looking forward to working on new benchmarks now! Still chasing RetinaHack and the rest of 'em lol.

Absolutely. My wife and I were talking about his teaching style just yesterday. Not necessarily glitzy or hashtag-worthy, but man you can feel the genuineness. I dig that. When I'm not actively in a challenge, I force myself to do non-MW rides. Not because I'm worried I'll burn out on his content/style or anything, but I appreciate that purposefully passionate approach even more when I come back to it. It's not for everyone, but it's right in my wheelhouse. The other PZ instructors are great, too, but obviously Matt's the OG.

This is why I like him. I can tell that his workouts are very planned out. It's not a random Z3 for a song now Z2 for a song with no thought about how long each song is or the purpose of the workout.

That's also why I like him to the tread classes. Both he and Becs feel like coachs where someone like Matty is just fun to run with. I wonder how much he charges for monthly coaching, it has to be ridiculous.

He periodically mentions two things 1) that he used to be a CPA and 2) he was going to go to medical school.

He's doing Peloton and personal coaching instead, so I bet the price is astronomical.

Dang...did you all just get the PZP raffle email. Prize is a bike fitting with the OG himself.

I agree with both of you. I went through the same type of Accounting program he did - so very Type A in terms of how I like to approach workouts/training which means Matt speaks my language. I honestly hate it during challenges when I have to choose between a DM or CDE PZE ride. I get so bored since these rides don't seem as structured and they typically talk all over the place.

if you get a referral can you use that towards weights

$42.22 after taxes, you provide the bike.

The new Peloton Adidas Merch is on their website. Some of it looks pretty cool.
