How a Busy Mom Reignited Her Fitness Journey with the Yesoul G1 M Bike

At 34, Michelle, a full-time marketing coordinator and mother of two in Austin, Texas, had nearly given up on the idea of regular exercise. After years of hopping between fitness apps, gyms, and short-lived routines, she found herself stuck in a cycle of good intentions and quick burnouts. That changed three months ago when she brought home the Yesoul G1 M Bike.

"It's been a total game-changer," she now says. "It's the first time I've looked forward to cardio." From a skeptical, tired mom who dreaded workouts to someone who now spins with a smile, this is Michelle's story of how she transformed her fitness habits right from her living room.

A Life That Left Little Room for Fitness

Michelle's daily routine was packed from sunrise to bedtime. Mornings began with school drop-offs and emails; evenings were filled with dinner prep, laundry, and bedtime stories. Her attempts at staying active never seemed to stick. "I tried everything—yoga apps, weekend bootcamps, even a local spin class," she recalls. "But nothing ever lasted more than two weeks."

What held her back wasn't just time—it was the lack of motivation. "Cardio was boring, and workouts felt like another chore," she admits. Most nights, she'd sink into the couch, mentally and physically drained. Deep down, she knew she wanted to feel stronger, have more energy, and finally do something good for herself. But she couldn't find the right fit.

Her biggest struggles? A lack of enjoyment, a busy schedule, and the feeling that fitness just didn't suit her lifestyle. "I'd start a routine and give up as soon as life got busy," she says. "There was always something more urgent."

Discovering the Yesoul G1 M Bike

Michelle first learned about the Yesoul G1 M Bike from a YouTube influencer she followed for mom-life tips. "She wasn't doing some over-the-top fitness thing," Michelle remembers. "She was riding, watching a YouTube's video, laughing—and that caught my eye."

What really intrigued Michelle was the big screen and the ability to stream anything she wanted—from workout classes to her favorite shows on YouTube. "It wasn't just about working out—it was about enjoying that time," she says.

She started reading reviews and watching more videos.

She was especially impressed by the bike's immersive sound system. "I could imagine myself blasting music and watching interesting learning videos on YouTube, diving into topics I'm passionate about"

From First Ride to Full Routine

The day the G1 M Bike arrived, Michelle set it up right next to the window in her living room. The sleek, modern design fit neatly into her home without being an eyesore.

She started small—just 15 minutes of cycling while catching up on her favorite show. “I wasn’t aiming to push myself too hard,” she says. “I just wanted to get moving.” Even those brief sessions felt like a victory. The immersive sound and booming audio filled the room, making each ride feel like an experience, not just a workout.

The real game-changer came when she discovered the bike’s rotating screen feature. “I could switch to a stretching or strength class after a ride without switching platforms or apps,” she says. “It felt like having a full gym in one corner of my home.”

Soon, she was cycling five days a week, often for 30–40 minutes. “Sometimes I’d start a movie and keep riding without even noticing,” she says. She wasn’t just moving—she was enjoying it.

The Impact: Physical and Emotional

Three months into her new fitness routine, Michelle feels the difference—not just physically, but emotionally too. “I’ve lost about eight pounds, but more than that, I feel good,” she says. “I have more energy, I sleep better, and I’m way less cranky.”

She also noticed she’s more focused during the day. “Even just 20 minutes in the morning gets me in a better headspace for work and mom duties,” she shares. Her kids have noticed too. “They call it ‘Mom’s Fun Bike,’” she says. “Sometimes they cheer me on.”

One surprising benefit? Her posture has improved. Carrying kids, bending over toys, and daily household tasks had taken a toll on her back and shoulders. Regular rides on the bike helped strengthen her core without putting extra strain on her body.

What Keeps Her Coming Back

Michelle credits several features of the G1 M Bike for helping her stay consistent. The free and unlimited streaming tops the list. “I can ride to anything I want—whether it’s a fitness class or a guilty-pleasure drama. No paywalls, no limits.”

Then there’s the sound system. “It’s not just background music—it fills the room,” she says. “That kind of audio makes the whole experience more exciting, like I’m part of something.”

And the rotating screen? A lifesaver. “I can finish a spin and immediately do a 10-minute stretch, all on the same screen. It makes it easy to switch things up without stopping.”

But maybe the most important part is the emotional shift. “It’s no longer ‘I have to work out,’” she explains. “It’s ‘I get to ride today.’ That’s huge.”

Tips for Other Busy Moms

As a mom juggling kids, household responsibilities, Michelle often recommends the G1 M bike to other mothers in her circle. “It’s honestly ideal for moms who don’t have time to drive to the gym or commit to long workouts,” she says. “You can just hop on for a short session while the kids are napping or watching a show.”

Her top advice? Start small and be kind to yourself. “Don’t expect to go all-in from day one,” she explains. “I started with just 10 or 15 minutes while catching up on a show, and that made it feel manageable, even enjoyable. It’s not about perfection—it’s about consistency.”

She also suggests making the bike a visible part of your daily space. “I keep mine in the living room by the window,” she says. “If I see it, I’m more likely to use it—even if it’s just a quick ride before dinner. Out of sight really does mean out of mind when you're a busy parent.”

Michelle believes the key is making fitness fit into your life, not the other way around. “Don’t wait for the perfect time. Just start with what you can do today, even if it’s only a few minutes. That small step is still progress.”

Looking Ahead

After 90+ days of riding, Michelle sees this not as a short-term routine but a lifestyle shift. “This is just how I live now,” she says. “It’s part of my day like brushing my teeth.” She even has her eye on other Yesoul equipment for strength and full-body workouts.

She’s grateful she gave the G1 M a try. “It brought fitness back into my life, but also joy,” she says. “It’s not about weight loss or perfection—it’s about moving, feeling strong, and having fun doing it.”

To anyone doubting they can start over with fitness, Michelle has one thing to say: “Find something that makes you smile while sweating. For me, that was the Yesoul bike. And it changed everything.”
