Peloton has come a long way over the past year or so, from viral ad backlash to booming sales amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The fitness brand â known for its signature stationary bike â has been described as cult-like, with devotees fawning over their favorite instructors, signing up for monthly challenges and posting about their cycling activity on social media.
Naturally, the frenzy has reached Twitter, where people share their Peloton love â and skepticism. Weâve rounded up 55 funny and relatable tweets about that Peloton life.
When the Peloton instructors bite their bottom lip during a ride, they look casually sexy. When I do it, I look like Iâve just gotten a mouthful of bad yogurt.

Sometimes I think the Peloton Bike Girl looked the way she did because she saw into the future, glimpsed 2020 and was just trying to pretend like everything was okay.
