re: Peloton vs Schwinn Carbon Blue Exercise Bike - which is better?

On the real though..I ride mountain bikes. Granted it's more work on my back with the bumps and flows of the trail, but I'd still think a stationary bike would be tough stress on your back. I lobbied my old work to purchase a Peloton for the fitness center and they did. I would go use it in the early AM and enjoyed it. What type of questions do you have?
Does the Peloton have the same feel as the Schwinn relative to the smooth ride? I use exercise bikes in hotel gym's across the spectrum and only the Schwinn and Spinning bikes feel closest to a true bike ride. The others I have been on do not feel as natural.
I have heard great things about the Peloton and it's $2K vs the Schwinn Carbon Blue at $2500. So I figured I can save a few bucks if I get Peloton provided it has a similar ride.
As for my back, the stationary bikes are great on my back. It mobilizes my hips and lower back without the pounding of a mountain bike and is a great supplement to walking each day. Unfortunately, the stationary bikes seem to be the best way to get a more intense cardio workout. I used to swim every day but got tired of the pool.
Appreciate the responses thus far.

Peloton vs Schwinn Carbon Blue Exercise Bike - which is better?
Posted by BHMTigah on 12/3/17 at 4:49 pm
I tried this on the exercise and fitness board but got no feedback so I want to try the OT Lounge - I have a bad back and need to find a good cardio machine that can supplement walking and outdoor activities. I have participated in spin classes and get a lot out of them but my work is keeping me from getting to the classes. Thus, I am in the market for a spin bike and I am torn between a Schwinn Carbon Blue bike which I have used and love and a Peloton bike which seems to get rave reviews. I would like to get some feedback from the board on the pros and cons of these two bikes. Thanks.

Can Obama go on a policy rampage and implement executive orders as lame duck?

If she is guilty of anything with the CF or her server issues she'll have to be pardoned. If so, wouldn't that prevent her from running for office? If she is too prideful to take the pardon, then she'll likely be in jail if our justice department is doing their job.
Can we get a list going of how a Trump presidency will MAGA!?

1) slash all of Obama's executive orders
2) repeal and replace Obamacare
3) SCOTUS appointees
4) Tear up Iran deal, TPP, NAFTA
5) Keystone pipeline?
What else does this board think is achievable in his first term in office? Is the lowering of taxes for corporations and individuals really doable or will congress push back?
Thanks in advance.

I go by myself to that game all the time. I enjoy meeting new people and friends along the way.

This is due to lack of preparation in my opinion. These college students study film for games like they might do for a test. If they think it's going to be easy they may not take as much time to study film and blitzes. Therefore when they get to the game and see an unfamiliar alignment or blitz they look sloppier than in those big games.

Did anyone actually play ncaa ball ?
I did. I played at Jacksonville State from 97-00. Back then we played in the Southland conference, and one of my best games came against Stephen F Austin in Nacogdoches. I was a slot receiver throughout my career and that day I was often covered on spread formations by a LB that turned out to be Jeremiah Trotter. I ended up with 4 catches for 80 yards. We did have one play where it called for me to cut block him on a wide run. Long story short, he went to the ground, but my shoulder felt like it was still on the 20 yard line while the rest of my body made it to the sideline. It was like hitting a Mack truck.
Some of my favorite games to play were the games in Louisiana. Games against McNeese and Nichols were always packed houses and always loud. Loved those atmospheres.
The coaches I played for ended up in really high places actually. Here are some of them...
Doug Meacham was our OC. He is now the Co-OC for TCU. Patrick Nix and Mike Bobo were our QB coaches during my time. My position coach at WR was Jason Simpson, who is now the Head Coach at UT Martin. The DB coach/DC was Charles Kelly who is now famously at FSU.
I did go on to play for 2 years in the Arena Leagues and ended up as a scout in the front office after that for a few years before embarking on a professional management career.
Do you remember playing Samford at home in 97? We had a few good brawls during that game!
re: What is your most interesting event witnessed on live TV?

Fox News televised a police chase on Shepherds show and the guy got out, ran to some field and blew his head off. I couldn't get that image out of my head for a while.
re: How many people here deal with anxiety/panic attacks on a daily basis?
Posted by BHMTigah on 8/8/15 at 7:17 am
Sometimes heart rhythm issues are mistaken for panic attacks. Basically the pacemaker in your heart short circuits and your heart beats out of your chest (called PSVTs). It has a rapid onset and can be triggered by dehydration (alcohol) fatigue and a couple of other random things. They can last a few minutes and make you feel like you are dying. They get diagnosed sometimes when people go to ER and have the panic attack while on the EKG machine.
Next time you get them try deep coughing, massaging your carotid artery or bear down like you are going to the bathroom. If that helps it to go away you may have this issue and not a "mental" panic attack.
Check out PSVT and Panic Attack on Google.

If you have ever met a true case of ADHD you would see why they benefit from drugs once they get on therapy and can actually keep their train of thought for more than a few minutes.

Thanks everybody. Had to step away after posting this last nite but I appreciate the responses. Since it's on the company dime, I am looking for a step up from Mr Gattis! I have heard Beausoleil was good and was considering Ruffinos.
