A recent Peloton commercial show Chris Meloni exercising nude,
However, the tag line at the end implies that only Chris Meloni uses peloton nude.
I would expect that a fair number of people who have it at home do, including many who are not nude in public.
Does anyone else have thoughts on this?

I can't honestly say I have Peloton equipment, or any gym equipment at home...
But let me say that this must be an incredibly positive message about nudity and its social acceptance! The ancient Greeks competed in sporting competition nude and so the connection with exercise and nudity makes so much sense.
Well done Peloton and Chris Meloni!

EarlDJul 20, 2022Its just commercial that uses implied nudity to sell a product nothing more nothing less. Peloton is struggling and desperately in need of some buzz so it makes sense. The actor isnt some naturist hero all of a sudden.
Still if naturists dont ever react or overplay the impact we can use it to start positve conversations about clothes free life.ReactReply - TD

chitownnudistJul 20, 2022I kind of dislike anything that pokes fun at being naked. I wish that instead, they just treated it as who people are. I think we would be better served (as a community) if ads and things just made it a statement that being naked is nothing more than how people live.

Cougar01Jul 20, 2022I don't own a Peloton but have a competitor's stationary cycle and ride it nude daily. I believe there are lots of people who use their exercise equipment naked in the privacy of their own homes. I wonder how many Mirror owners would admit to working out in front it while nude.

Sadly that is where we are now and IMO it is degrading what was once a wholistic full way of life that including all aspects of life including wellness and wellbeing in socially nude context to just dropping trou.ReactReply - HI
hikethedesertAug 8, 2022Hi, I don't have a Pelton but, I do bike and use the elliptical nude. Much more comfortable having a free range of motion.

I bike or walk oudoors when it is warm enough, 40 to walk and 50 to bike. Shirtless for either above the mid-60s. I do my stretching and resistance exercises nude in the basement.ReactReply - NUnudeyooperAug 8, 2022[quote]Hi, I don't have a Pelton but, I do bike and use the elliptical nude.

When winter hits, I use my stationary bike and take care of the boredom by watching TV at the same time. I will change the intensity of the resistance with each commercial. And naturally, the advantage to being inside is that I can do it nude. I will sometimes ride nude after dark, but don't do that very often.ReactReply

Tom DOriginal PosterAug 8, 2022Do you ride shirtless outdoors when it is warm enough?
I usually do.ReactReply - CO
Cougar01Aug 8, 2022Outdoors I always bike shirtless if it's above 70's and normally wear split side running shorts and barefoot. Sometimes shirtless down to the 50's in the fall. Did a few early morning rides this spring through the woods and into the cemetery and back wearing only a long black hoodie! Closest thing to riding naked when it's not WNBR.

Tom DOriginal PosterAug 8, 2022I used to ride a bike in very short lightweight running shorts on a regular basis, and occasionally in a brief swimsuit. Being almost naked felt great, the saddle sores and chafing on my inner thighs and balls did not. I switched to bike shorts. I still ride my bike shirtless when it is warm enough.
