I've shared before that I am not someone who likes a formal workout routine. I like to be active, but active on accident. I like to play with my son, go on walks, park far away at Target...but the minute I try to implement a workout routine, I think of every excuse not to follow it. Enter my new best friend...
Inspire IC1.5
I am easily influenced by all the things on Instagram, but I could not bring myself to buy a stationary bike that costs as much as my first car. Could not do it. Now I have ridden a Peloton bike at several hotel gyms (remember when we used to go to hotels?), and I do love them. I just love them more when someone else pays for them.
Last month, Dan went to the store for chicken and came home with this bike...and we haven't stopped riding it yet! A free year of the Inspire app is included with purchase and I like it fine. That said, I will not be repurchasing the app after the year is up. I prefer the Peloton app for classes, and have also found several I like for free on Amazon. If I am not feeling like a class, I watch indoor cycling videos on YouTube that wind through different cities/countries.
Since I have now had this for over a month and I don't hate it, I thought I would share in case you were contemplating an indoor cycling purchase.
I love reading about exercise/nutrition whenever I set new health goals. I read this book last month and loved it! It addresses the nutrition side of the health journey equation in an easily digestible way (see what I did there?)
Cute workout clothes help inspire me to break a sweat. Or at least make me look like I plan to exercise after running errands. :) Here are some of my favorites:
Let me know if you have any specific questions about the bike and I will do my best to answer them!
Happy riding!

Deanna
