: Even the way you ask that! I mean, not as much as I did last year, but yes, I am still Pelotoning.: Oh, the cult leaders!

So for example, I will do squats all day long. I mean, not literally, but I prefer to do like lower body exercises and lunges and that sort of thing. And so I gravitate towards those, and now when I fire up the Guide, there's a recommendation that I take, Jess Sims' 20-minute upper-body class, which will inevitably involve a lot of pushups, which I will hate but I should probably be doing. And so it's starting to make personalized recommendations over time.
