Peloton launching Activity Feed to view friends workouts & leave high fives to compete with Strava – Peloton Buddy

Peloton is beta testing a long-requested feature that allows members to see a list of workouts their friends have completed. Also, you can high five with your friends on those completed workouts. This new feature is called “Activity Feed” for Peloton, and you’ll see it labeled “Feed” in the menu. Once you have access to it, you can find it at this link: https://members.onepeloton.com/feed

If you’ve used Strava, this new feature appears to be Peloton’s attempt to recreate Strava’s social feed. If you’ve never used Strava, think of this as something similar to the Instagram or Facebook feed of your friends’ completed workouts that you can leave likes on (except here they’re called high fives).

When members log into their Peloton accounts via web browser, they will see a pop-up announcing a new feature: “Keep up with the Peloton community through the new activity feed. See the latest activity from your followers, send high fives and more.”

When you navigate to the feed (which has a note that it’s a beta test), you’ll see your friends who recently took a Peloton class. You will see the name of their leaderboard, what class they took, and some class stats.

From there, you can high five with that full workout. Note that even though it’s labeled a high-five (the same activity you do during live classes), instead of leaving them high-fiveing ​​that they would see in class, this leaves them high-fiveing ​​in a full workout.

One thing to keep in mind: this is different from the high-fives you’re used to giving in class. High fives in the new activity feed will not result in high fives in class. In fact, workouts don’t appear in this new activity feed until they’re completed. Think of this as a “completed” activity feed rather than an ongoing activity feed.

Note that if you click on a member’s profile from another section (i.e. search for their name, go to their workouts, and click on a workout), you can’t leave them high-five a full workout from there. You can only high-five completed workouts from the new “Feed” tab.

From the activity feed, you can click on the name of the class. A popup will appear showing you the overview of the class you are used to seeing, which has the playlist and other details of the class. You can click “Start Class” to immediately jump to that class if you wish.

So far, the feature appears to be available in the Web navigator (both desktop and mobile), but has not yet reached App, Bike or Tread devices. However, it is in beta so not all members have access yet.

Are you excited about this new feature?
