Peloton - Fitness & Workouts

What it does

Peloton - Fitness & Workouts is a guided exercise app for people who want instructor-led sessions at home, at a gym or outdoors. Its classes cover strength, cycling, running, walking, yoga, Pilates, stretching, barre, HIIT and meditation. Some activities use a bike, treadmill or rowing machine; others can be done without equipment.

Who it suits

The app is a fit for people who like a coach-led format and a range of workout types in one place. It can serve someone following a home routine, a gym-goer adding guided strength sessions, or a runner looking for instruction outdoors. People who prefer to exercise without a screen-led class may find the format less useful.

How it compares

Compared with apps focused on a single activity, Peloton brings cardio, strength and mobility sessions together. Its equipment-based classes are relevant to people with compatible exercise machines, while its no-equipment options make it usable without owning Peloton hardware. The main distinction is the emphasis on instructor-led classes rather than simply logging workouts or tracking activity.

Peloton Interactive, Inc. is the developer. The app is listed in Health & Fitness and has 1,000,000+ installs.

The app is designed for use on Android phones and tablets, with classes also available on TV.
