Connect The Watts

E! has a really fantastic recap of what some of Peloton’s most popular instructors did before joining the company.

One of the things people often ask about Peloton is what makes it different than other fitness platforms and products you can buy for your home. Is it just like any other treadmill or spin bike that will largely collect dust and remind you of the money you wasted on it?

We’ve compiled a few simple reasons in a Google Web Story that you can browse here or read more below.

On Monday, Peloton’s Jess King will be teaching a live HIIT workout with Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest on their nationally televised show on ABC.

To kick off 2021, Peloton has released “The Cooldown 2020” website where you can review your Peloton year in review.

NordicTrack’s latest product, the Vault with iFit, is now available for pre-order.

Built out of carbon steel, Vault features a 32-inch HD touchscreen covered by a rotating 60 x 22-inch mirror, allowing users to work out anywhere in their home while feeling as if their iFit trainer is right there.

Cody Rigsby spends his days as Peloton’s cycling director while also teaching several classes each week. Today, he’s branching out into the electric vehicle world as he’s now appearing in a new campaign with GM.

Outside of lack of direct hardware integration, one of the biggest differences between working out on a Peloton Bike or Tread and Peloton Digital is the included “pause” button on the app-only options. Rumors (via PeloBuddy) are now circulating that Peloton is researching a pause button for its hardware products as well.

The new Peloton tread will be available to purchase nationwide in the US on March 30th.

As Peloton is still fulfilling orders from 2020, one analyst is predicting another a Peloton strength product in 2021.

On the official Peloton YouTube page, a new video was posted to close out 2020, looking at some of the year’s important milestones.

If you want to kickstart a 2021 fitness goal, Peloton is removing the excuses with a free 60-day trial of Peloton digital. Peloton is also releasing exclusive Elvis remixes for the first time in January.

As was rumored last week, Echelon Fitness has added a new investment from Goldman Sachs and North Castle and is also working with Mario Lopez to create a round of classes.

For the past few months, I’ve been using the NordicTrack 2950 treadmill as my first connected treadmill experience that I actually enjoy using.

If you’re wanting to get started on a 2021 fitness goal, iFit is making that even easier with their new iFit TV apps.

As was rumored, Peloton released its Beatles collection on Christmas day.

If you were waiting until the next Peloton sale on apparel or you have some Christmas money to spend, Peloton just kicked off a 40% off sale on select styles.

The surge in demand for at-home fitness products didn’t just affect Peloton, Echelon Fitness also reported record earnings in 2020.

Peloton will spend nearly a half billion dollars on an acquisition to help it better keep up with demand for its popular bikes and treadmills. As announced in a press release, Peloton will acquire the exercise equipment manufacturer Precor for $420 million, with the deal expected to close in early 2021.

My biggest problem with Peloton is how little time I give myself away from it. I generally try to ride six days a week at minimum and rarely do anything less than a half-hour class, and this has led to muscle fatigue. One of the ways I’ve combated it is using Panache.

Last week, in Vanity Fair, an article was released that looks at how Peloton’s instructors have gone from fitness instructors to Internet celebrities.

One of the benefits of connected fitness is working out on your own schedule. That doesn’t mean that finding the time for live classes is easy, though.

When Robin Arzón announced her pregnancy a few months back during a live ride, the Peloton community rejoiced with her. Today, Peloton is further expanding its community by launching a prenatal program as first reported by Yahoo.

Earlier today, Peloton officially released its first set of Pilates classes for its subscribers.

Rumors have persisted for the past few months that Peloton would be adding new instructors to their team in Germany, and they made it official today.
