for years I’ve been considering buying a spin bike, but now that im a baller, im thinking of just copping the peloton for versatility of live classes or freestyle rides (I love their app and use it at the gym anyway). But I also want an assault bike for quick easy HIIT, my gym doesn’t have one. Any of y’all got two pieces of cardio equipment? I’m not trying to make a small ass apartment into a gym, but they’re both so useful, to have on hand :lupe:

I had a studio apt back in the day. Had 2 light weight kettle balls, 25lbs. And a heavier joint @50.
Had those powerblocks up to 50. And copped a 20lb add on. Used a cheap Arm Blaster instead of a preacher curl. Def recommend it.

A stability ball instead of a bench.
Cheap Yoga mats so I wouldn't scuff my floors,
the Insanity DVD's and a jump rope.:russ:
A pull up pro w/ the fat grips on it.

I also had a Walmart curl bar, a forearm blaster, and a door frame resistance band setup, but they all snapped easily. :scust:

You should just get a real bike + smart trainer. I have one and I love it. You can program your workouts in. I don't know what you can do for classes but I build and program my workouts. Apps like Zwift let you ride on virtual courses and compete with others too.

Only problem is it's kind of a tech nightmare to set up... but if you go to a bike shop I bet they can get you situated. I had to figure it out on my own and it was infuriating at times.

This.

When I was in a one bed round around 700sq ft I had my bike, a trainer, then some kettle bells and a yoga mat.

Worked well and you also have a bike. Cost less than a peloton top. :yeshrug:

If you have peloton at the gym why waste money on it for the crib? You won’t use it as much as you’re mind will convince you you will.
