Here’s Why Peloton is the Best Fitness Gift

Everyone has that special someone (or yourself!) who loves movement. If you're thinking about going all-in with the best fitness gift, add Peloton to the top of your list. We’re giving you a tour of all you need to know before you bringing home a Peloton Bike or Bike+, Peloton Tread or Tread+, or Peloton Row. Below, we break down the key features that bring Peloton equipment to life.

Why Peloton Equipment Stands Out 

1. The live in-class metrics—cadence, output, and resistance on bikes, pace targets and more on treads, and total strokes, output, stroke rate, and more on Row—on the touchscreen make it easy to immerse yourself in the class experience.

2. Connect with Members from all over the world on the Peloton Leaderboard! Enjoy a little healthy competition or hide it to stay in the zone. Want to motivate another Member? Send a high-five through the Leaderboard to show the community some love.

3. Got a music lover who needs a beat to stay motivated and locked in? Tracks played in class appear on the side of the screen with the option to save them to a custom Peloton playlist to take off the Bike, Tread, or Row and out into the world.

4. Track improvements in performance by viewing the workout summary within your Peloton profile and look out for a monthly recap email from Peloton breaking down your month-over-month activity.

5. Take your workouts with you wherever you go! Peloton Members can use the Peloton App (available for iPhone and Android) to tap into classes—including yoga, meditation, strength training, stretching, and outdoor running—wherever they are.

6. Want a little more guidance on which classes will best help you reach your fitness goals? Every Peloton Program is designed by our world-class instructors to help you achieve specific results. Our extensive on-demand library lets you find the Program that’s right for you, based on duration, number of classes, instructor, and more. 

7. If you’ve got a travel-lover in your life, they can see the world from the comfort of their own home—while still getting in a great workout. Peloton’s scenic classes let Members take in stunning views of everywhere from all over the globe. Choose from a vast library of class options, whether you still want instructor guidance or prefer just to listen to music while exercising.

8. For those of us who appreciate a little extra motivation, Peloton Challenges can take your workouts to the next level. Every month, you can choose to join a variety of challenges that’ll push you to reach particular goals, like running a certain distance or taking a certain amount of yoga classes. And don’t forget about The Annual challenge, which tracks all the minutes you put in for the entire year!

9. Connect with other Members through your Peloton profile and keep each other accountable for jumping into your next workout on whatever schedule works for you. Our Here Now Leaderboard lets you see who’s riding live with you in any class you take—and don’t forget to use the Invite Friends feature to set up fun workouts where your family and friends can all ride together. You can even create your own team and challenge to work towards a goal together.

10. Gain an incredible fitness community via The Official Peloton Member Page. Our Facebook group is where Peloton Members come together to share their stories, ask questions, and support other Members from all over the world.

11. Get inspired and find motivation from our incredible lineup of stories that we share on our blog, The Output. You’ll receive curated fitness and lifestyle content that supports you in hitting your goals and living your best fitness life.
