I like the stretching videos a lot, but mostly stick to the pre/post ride ones, sometimes one of the targeted ones, but not as often as I should. I never did yoga frequently enough to have an opinion beyond "like them as a very casual yoga person", though one of my early quarantine purchases was a new yoga mat and some yoga blocks because I was sure I'd become a daily yoga type.

Also, just remembered I came in here to say that I did one of their walk/run outdoors things. I injured my knee late 2019 and never got any follow up treatment because of covid, so I've been off running for a LONG time. I only did like 5 minutes total of running that was really jogging, but it's a start, goddammit. I will crawl my way back to 5ks , which is about where I at after my last run interruption. We'll see where I get after that!

well that's surely the case and that cadence isn't bad at all for a first ride in a while :o
i've done another commute today and i was pleased with the result though i'm sure the wind helped me out on this one :p

Very close to my target of an average of 30km/h and i was held up at some points by other cyclists where i couldn't pass them so without that i might have even reached that target on this ride.
It does feel like i'm making progress so that's great
With work i'm also participating in a charity event for breast cancer in which the company sponsor our entry and several companies add in for every step taken by participants. Hence i'm also committed to taking at least 10k steps a day during May.
my progress so far is:

Which surely is not achieved during my day to day business when working so i have to put in a bit extra effort :p
today i went for an additional walk before work (which i forgot to track) and one after dinner which i did track.

Not sure about walking pace and what's normal but i might be bit faster as most there according to my colleagues assessment.

I love their yoga classes! Some of them are quite difficult and more strength based, and I really like that they have ones that target specific regions. Mobility is always good! I also use the stretching usually as a cool down, but skip the meditation since I have Headspace for that (but also strongly recommend meditation to most people)!
And not peloton related, but I finally played my sport yesterday and I am SORE and DYING. It's a good pain but it's been a while heh. I think some yoga for myself would probably be a good thing too for recovery (:
@(you need an account to see links) - they have a 5k training series too I think, which the one I did was definitely very nice for easing back into running.

Switched it up to some yoga today! Shout out to @(you need an account to see links) for letting me tag along for the first yoga session!

It felt so good I decided to do an intermediate power yoga then an advanced power yoga. This was great! Before I had my kiddo I used to go to Hot yoga all the time and it felt amazing and I would be so tired and relaxed after. So now I'm trying more of it into my regime. If anyone wants to practice vurtually together let me know!
@(you need an account to see links) Was glad to have you join me, definitely inspired me to get off my ass and actually do it. And I definitely want to get back into doing yoga more often!

I lost my 3 week streak. I had a busy week and although I did light exercise, I didn't workout with Peloton.
These milestones are addicting and keep me sticking with the app. Good for my fitness! I've now used up my free trial and I'm paying for the service.
Also, I've always had a hard time with mindfulness and I usually get bored during yoga. I don't know why I can't get into it. Ballet relaxes me more than yoga.

I completely fell off this weekend. On food and nutrition. But today, its back to it! I think my body enjoyed the extra time off actually. I've being doing double workouts and reached a new record Thursday with 709 workout calories burned. So now I just need to get back to it!
I tried to get going today but my app is acting up. Is anyone else who uses the digital app having issues with getting classes to load. I am wondering if their servers are getting overloaded due to all the new bikes and treads being bought. My internet is fine and we can stream on our other devices with no issues. I also reinstalled the app with no luck in improving performance.
