That is an infomercial script right there. Great that it worked for you, but most people don’t become health nuts after buying a Ronco or a bow flex. Plus, it’s actively unhelpful advice for the majority of people who could never afford such an expensive way to stay fit when it could be trivially replicated with a free Craigslist exercise bike and a phone playing YouTube.

I don’t think the peloton is at all equivalent to the ronco(?) or bow flex. It’s an integrated experience with hardware, classes/instructors, and an active community.

I've read some of the comments here and it sounds like people are being exceedingly unfair towards the position you presented. I'm not entirely sure why.

Personally, I think the cost of the bike + the subscription is untenable, but I understand how it could benefit people who want that experience.
