Peloton Kettlebell Challenge April 2026: Swing, Earn, Repeat

The Peloton Kettlebell Challenge is coming, and April is your month to swing into action. Starting April 1, Peloton is running a 30-day Kettlebell Challenge that gives members a structured reason to pick up the bell, build consistency, and earn a badge along the way.

Here is what you need to know.

What Is the Peloton Kettlebell Challenge?

The challenge runs throughout the month of April. Peloton will release a new Kettlebells class every week, giving members fresh content to work with across the 30 days. To earn a badge, you need to complete 3, 5, or 10 classes during the month. Completing 3 classes earns a Bronze badge, 5 classes earns Silver, and 10 classes earns Gold.

You can find the challenge under the Challenges tab in the Community section of the Peloton app. It will appear under Active once April 1 arrives.

New Classes Every Week

One of the more notable features of this challenge is that Peloton is actively building out the content calendar alongside it. Rather than pulling entirely from the existing on-demand library, the platform is releasing at least one new Kettlebells class per week throughout April. That means members who stay current with the challenge will be working with new programming, not just revisiting older sessions.

This approach mirrors how Peloton has handled other modality-specific monthly challenges, where badge tiers are designed to provide motivation and make goal-setting more manageable, treating the modality as a core discipline rather than just a side activity.

Peloton Kettlebell Challenge: A Growing Part of the Platform

Peloton’s kettlebell program is still relatively new. When Peloton launched kettlebell classes, five classes dropped initially, and they are listed in the strength section when filtering by class type. Since then, the roster of instructors and the content library have both expanded meaningfully.

Peloton’s kettlebell classes are led by an instructor lineup that includes Jess Sims, Andy Speer, and Rebecca Kennedy, among others. More recently, Zacharias Niedzwiecki joined the strength roster with a particular focus on kettlebells, informed by his yoga practice.

If you are newer to kettlebell training, starting with a Basics or fundamentals class before jumping into the challenge classes is a smart approach. Key foundational moves include the kettlebell swing, goblet squat, and deadlift, and Peloton’s beginner classes are well-suited for learning these before moving on to more complex work.

How to Find the Kettlebell Challenge and Classes

To join, open your Peloton account and navigate to Community, then Challenges. Look for the Kettlebell Challenge under Active starting April 1.

You can then find kettlebell classes in the Strength section of the on-demand library, filtering for Class Type > Kettlebells or Kettlebell Basics. You can also do this by searching “kettlebell” directly. The challenge will track your progress automatically as you complete qualifying classes.

Whether you are going for Bronze or pushing for Gold, the Peloton Kettlebell Challenge gives you a clear goal, consistent new content, and a growing community to train alongside. With over 350,000 participants already enrolled, this is shaping up to be one of the platform’s most popular spring challenges.
