\n If you remember, SoulCycle was A HUGE part of my life since 2014.
\n <\/em>\n <\/p>\n

\n Once my favorite instructor\/friend moved to London, I really didn\u2019t go to SoulCycle my usual 4-5x a week. In turn, I stopped working out. I tried a lot of other workouts, and didn\u2019t love them either. I really just enjoyed being on a bike at SoulCycle. I loved walking into a studio and feeling happy \u2013 seeing friends, getting a good sweat sesh in \u2013 it was great. When I started dating Nick, yoga naturally became a bigger part of my routine (Nick is a yoga teacher). He also really loves working out, so we did that together a lot too.\n <\/p>\n

\n Then COVID-19 hit us like a ton of bricks.\n <\/p>\n

\n Thankfully, Nick taught yoga classes on Instagram Live 5 days a week. I\u2019d be in another room taking his class. It definitely kept me busy, active, and was an AMAZING way to relieve the stress of a pandemic. I think that might have been my saving grace from March-June. I also got really strong during that time. But, like most things, reality set back in and I was really missing being on a bike.\n <\/p>\n

\n Then I was introduced to

\n reached out to work together. In exchange for their product, I would post to Instagram + Stories. I still feel like I wanted to write a full review of the bike since 1. It\u2019s an investment for you if you purchase and 2. I have A LOT of thoughts.\n <\/p>\n

\n So when the team did reach out, I was like 10000% YES. I didn\u2019t hesitate. Spin was a huge part of my work out routine, I missed it SO much since the pandemic started. It was pretty much the only cardio I did \u2014 I\u2019m really not big on burpees, jumping jacks, etc. I pretty much begged Nick to let me get the bike delivered to his apartment (hehe, sorry babe). When he agreed, I was SO excited for it to arrive.\n <\/p>\n

\n I was definitely impressed with how quick the delivery was after hearing nightmare stories about other bikes. Everything was pretty seamless: The bike came almost fully assembled \u2014 We just had to put the monitor on and unpack the weights.\n <\/p>\n

\n Ok, now let\u2019s talk about what else I like about the
