The power output really isnt the best measure of physical fitness between two people in my opinion.

My current PR for a 30 min Kendal ride is 310 (I'm 5'10" 195lbs). My neighbor did the same ride and had an output of 407 (He's 6'3" and probably 230lbs...he did play O-Line in college though).

Anyways my point is that a larger human can generate more power without giving more effort. If my wife did that ride she may not have reached 200 watts in output.

I see the same thing with what my wife does. Right when we got it we both took the same 20 minute beginner class, and my output was something like 50% higher than hers. I'm 5'7" and was around 160 at the time. She's 5'3" and was probably 125. Not a huge difference in height and weight, but my legs are fairly thick and hers are more slender.

Did the 2000's Hip Hop ride with Leanne Hainsby at lunch today. My fiance is currently doing the 30 milute live Gay Pride Month DJ Ride with Cody and that dude is just screaming crazy shite.

I got cages to attach to the bottom of the clips and now I can’t keep my 9 year old off the bike

She is obsessed with Lanebreak.

Guess I'm waking up early then!

Just did one of the country rides and it was weird. Not the music choice that will really get you going.

After 5 emails and 6 phone calls I am happy to say my bike is fixed! Repairman came by at 8:30 last night. Luckily he had a spare crank puller with him to remove the crank arm. Also lucky I have plenty of tools because he had to borrow mine to complete the repair. He said that Peloton was supposed to send me a crank puller with the new parts.

All in all, my fault, and lesson learned. Replace pedals every 1-2 years depending on how much you use it so you don't run in to needing repairs that could have been avoided.

I haven't rode since February 1 when the bike broke and already have my stack ready. Jumping back in full steam.

-5 minute Kendall warmup.
-45 minute Kendall intervals and arms.
-5 minute Kendall cool down.
