It’s worth noting that many riders add 5-minute warm-up, cool-down and stretching sessions to their main rides. Peloton counts all of these as separate rides and frequently recommends them. Frustratingly, they also count toward the user ride milestones that take up so much instructor focus during rides (100 rides, 500 rides etc.).
It all seems intentionally designed to juice their engagement data.

As a peloton user, I actually wish there was a way to set the system to "ignore" those rides for the purposes of ride count, stats, Strava upload, etc. The warm ups/cool downs are important things to do but it makes for a ton of digital clutter. If I ride 5 days a week that is 15 "activities" minimum. That being said, most of the more casual users are probably not doing this. I know that most of the people I know/follow on there are doing one or two activities per day of use, and it seems they are a mix of discipline, so like a 20 min ride and then a stretching class or weights.
