If we feel good, we can keep going in the direction of the reality we’re creating.
– Alaric Hutchinson
I have been working out since I broke my leg. I HAD to. Movement is my sanity. I have kept it safe and always feeling pretty good (which I know how lucky I am). I would be lying if I didn’t say as the weeks passed I wasn’t really starting to wonder if I’d ever be able to get back to the jumping around my living room, dripping with sweat , kinda workouts.
I’m a Pilates instructor at heart so it will always be my favorite type fo movement BUT I think thinking I might not be ABLE to do the high impact stuff is messing with me. Then I went to my second PT session and I did 10 mins on the stationary bike.
Heart rate was up, endorphins were going and I felt like I could ride the thing right through the wall and down the street…
AND I HAVE ALWAYS HATED SPINNING. In this moment everything changed and I was like I CANNOT WAIT TO GET MY ASS BACK ON THIS SEAT and EXCITED about where this new machine may take me.
And did I mention Beachbody is partnering with MYX Bikes and we launched a BIke!!!! Good timing or what?!!?!
SO HERE WE GO!!!!!
The super trainers we know and love are LIVE on our new, on-demand streaming platform - we are also welcoming many new trainers including Jennifer Jacobs! Her new program releases later this year and includes a cycling option 😲
Cycling is all the rage lately, but what is the big deal? Why cycling, why the MYX bike, and why NOW?!
Cycling is a high-energy, fun workout that incorporates cardio + strength in a super unique way! The guided cycling classes challenge you to push yourself and access to our cycling program, Job1 (December’s Launch Program!), will include so much more than just cycling! The MYX bike includes a tablet that can stream all the workouts pre-recorded and LIVE on our platform. Classes: You’ll get much more out of your exercise bike with guidance from virtual trainers, so we are so excited to offer so many options for new fitness experiences!
JOB1 will be 20 mins-a-day (LOVE! 😍), 5-days-a-week, for 4 weeks and focuses on functional training. This includes resistance + cardio workouts, plus four optional ride workouts to add to your MYX fitness bike routine!

HOW DOES DELIVERY WORK FOR THE BIKE?
When you order your MYX bike, it will travel to a warehouse near your home.
Once it arrives, the warehouse will contact you to schedule the delivery.
The night before your delivery, you’ll be contacted to select a time window. The day of the delivery, the team will let you know they’re on their way.
Your MYX is delivered fully assembled and will be placed wherever you’d like in your home!
WHERE SHOULD I PUT IT?
We recommend putting your bike somewhere with strong internet and near a power outlet. You’ll also want to make sure you have enough room for the bike and to also swivel the screen to do non-cycling workouts.
It’s also better to have no carpet, or if you have carpet we recommend a stabilization mat.
WHAT IS THE RETURN POLICY?
You can request a return within 30 days of delivery. Providing the bike is in its original working condition and everything is returned the way you received it, you will be contacted to schedule a pickup, and any refunds will be issued after we have picked up the equipment.
Refunds on the subscriptions services will terminate at the end of your current billing cycle, but they are not eligible for the refund.
PHEW - I think that’s it BUT if you have more questions or want in shoot me an email byoufitinfo@gmail.com and I’ll add you to my contact list and we can take the RIDE OF OUR LIVES together!
