PS Editors' Favorite Peloton Instructors For Every Workout

The Peloton app is a gift to anyone who can't always make it to the gym (or those who prefer to sweat without leaving the house). The platform prides itself on motivating you to feel your best, largely thanks to the comforting presence of its always-there-for-you trainers. Peloton instructors are some of the best in the industry, with inspiring personal stories, solid workout playlists, and the kind of motivational energy that radiates through the screen. Whether you're taking classes with legends like Robin Arzón, Cody Rigsby, and Ally Love, or newcomers such as Camila Ramón and Logan Aldridge, you're bound to grow stronger from the inside out.

Another perk of the Peloton app is that each of the instructors — and there are 55 to choose from, split across cycling, rowing, running, yoga, strength, and more — has their own unique energy and vibe. If you're in the mood to get sweaty and want some serious workout motivation, you'll be able to find a Peloton instructor that delivers. But if, on the other hand, you've had a tough day and you need a gentler lead with meditation or stretching, or someone who can turn your workout into a party, you can find that too.

If you're newer to the app, however, you may find the idea of sifting through all the instructors to find the best fit for you overwhelming. That's where we come in. To help point you in the right direction, we asked PS editors about their favorite Peloton trainers. Read on for our curated list of the 17 best Peloton instructors (although truthfully, we could have gone on and on). Since many of these instructors have multiple talents and teach different fitness modalities, we organized the list by mood — who to pick depending on how you feel or what you need that day. Whether you're new to the streaming service or just looking for more instructors to try, keep this list handy to see which Peloton trainer might be your next favorite.
