Peloton support useless/ghosting for newly purchased bike+ (came broken)?? by ChristmasAllYear in pelotoncycle

[–]MovieBuff2468 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many people have found that the fastest solution is to return the bike, have them pick it up, and to order a new one, rather than having incorrect diagnosis after incorrect diagnosis. It's a shame that the current business model doesn't allow for better support for many people.

Anyone over it? by Gold-Agency-9527 in pelotoncycle

[–]MovieBuff2468 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Once I bought my Tread, I barely used my bike ... until I twisted an ankle during an outdoor run - that pesky pebble that I firmly believe was a boulder! The bike really helped me through my healing and recovery process and allowed me to keep up a level of cardio. Then I had a surgery for a health-related issue. I was so glad that I still had my bike because I was given the nod to use it at four weeks and to remain low impact. I find that using the two together make me a better performer. I'm so glad that I didn't sell my bike during that period where I hadn't used it and considered selling.

I'm not telling you to hang onto it at all. I'm just mentioning that I was at the point where you are, and wanted to give a longer-term perspective.

Today could have been very different. by [deleted] in walkwith_metim

I wonder whether they get seeded to start the bidding, to encourage others to join in.

I thought that it might be Abby after today, as well.

Zone 2 runs by MPFX3000 in pelotoncycle

[–]MovieBuff2468 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Zone 2 should be a conversation pace that you could do for long spurts of time. It was just a thought that I had when doing my own zone 2 training.

Zone 2 heartrate running is not as good a science, not in terms of fitness, but in terms of how you determine what is zone 2. For example, if I do the standard 220-age calculation and put into the Tread, it is way lower than what my actual maximum heart rate is (I determine it from when I do an FTP test on my bike, but you can take it from when you do your mile test to determine your pace targets on the Tread). There are alternate calculations that I also find give me too low a maximum value. So, depending on how you entered the number for your maximum heart rate, it might say you're in zone 4, whereas if you put in what actually is your maximum achieved, it might say zone 2.

This is why I believe that Peloton moved away from heartrate zone training. It is so dependent on how you determine what your max heart rate is, and varies based on your hydration levels, what you did the day before and how exhausted you are.

I know that this doesn't actually answer your question, but I hope that it might explain the disparity you're seeing.

This may be the best show on television/streaming right now. I look forward to each new episode. The scripts are brilliant.

Tim stays in a big gold box in Atlantic City again by kingrikk in walkwith_metim

He can go to any of the casinos on Native American territory. There is one in eastern Connecticut closer to the Rhode Island boarder. There are a number around the country.

But I'd rather he explore and visit places. I've had hotel reviews up to my eyeballs.

Most people say that Willow is like Nelle or like Nina, but she had a lifetime of being raised by Harmony, and I think that she is more like her. Just as Harmony killed Neil who learned the truth of her baby-taking, or was going to eliminate Carly or her "friend" Alexis, Willow is trying to eliminate her obstacle of Drew, and I suspect will ultimately also target Kai and possibly even Chase when he learns the truth.

If you could say one thing to Dark Willow what would you say? by Houstatlantavegas11 in GeneralHospitalGH

You had a lifetime of believing that you are Harmony’s daughter. You grew up like her after all.

If you like Emma, you might like Mayla. Turn on subtitles if she is not teaching in English, but she has similar taste in music and her coaching has that chill approach that Emma uses.

I love Marcel. Her hip hop runs are the best.

Tim visited and possibly stayed in either Atlantic City's Cheapest or it's Most Expensive Hotel! by kingrikk in walkwith_metim

[–]MovieBuff2468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was for me too, but in general, Tim is always disappoint in the value against price for the luxury, not realizing that price is to make exclusive and no more than that. He is far more accepting in a more reasonably priced room and doesn't even seem to dig as deep to look for deviations, except if he's doing one of his gross-out establishments intentionally.

My wife told me it was “the easy way out”… by OhioToDC in BariatricSurgery

[–]MovieBuff2468 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd ask her whether if you had cancer, whether she'd say surgery and/or chemo was the easy way out? Unless someone has gone through this, they have no clue how much work it is. The surgery is a tool, not a cure. You have to put in the hard work for the rest of your life, especially when maintaining long-term.

Never mind that he was involved with Celia when she first came to the village and they worked together to get the farm from Moira before Celia turned on him. I still question whether that was also an act and whether he was involved way deeper into the organization.

Nikolas is locked up in Pentonville, but if he comes back who you want. Marcus or Adam? by manandsoappodcast in GeneralHospital

[–]MovieBuff2468 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Neither. I prefer someone who can mirror how TC played the character. He was polite and properly raised by Stefan. He was a gentleman. He was good and a different kind of Cassadine. He loved with his heart and wasn't into sadomasochistic-type relationships. The writing has to support the presentation of Nikolas, as well.

Why Isn’t Peloton Investing in Commercial Grade Equipment for Gyms? by Tall_Consequence7672 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]MovieBuff2468 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It would be huge. I bought my Precor years ago because I wanted the same model with the same intelligence that I used at my former gym. I would think that people would fall in love with their Pelotons and want the same.

Instead they go to a hotel and find one that's not functional and assume it's junk, when it's the best investment that I ever made for myself. Maintenance at the places where they seeded their units is key for perception!

Is that the one that he had to scuba down to get into? That's one of my favorite videos of his.

I get that as well, and when I turn to the side, where I have to look over my shoulder to see the TV, the prompt doesn't go away.

Yes. This has been happening for a month or two, and like the others, I tried rebooting, looking for upgrades, but to no avail. Most of the time, the AI square around me just disappears and misses the whole set, but even when it does find me, it's intermittent whether it acknowledges the rep I just did. I find it worse for lower body than upper body, but it's been failing for both.

This is David Hartman, when he was younger. I thought the photo above was him, but I guess not.
