    Peloton instructor Kendall Toole revealed she left the fitness company after five years for a “multitude of reasons.”

    “It was time for contract renegotiations,” she shared in a TikTok video Monday. “The most important thing was I just felt like it was time for me to evolve in my career.”

    Toole, 31, admitted she does “miss teaching” and her devoted riders but said she was going to “build something for” herself.

    “I’m ready … for something much bigger and to go after my own dreams,” she said. “You can’t stay in one place and expect for things to change and happen for you.”

    The athlete concluded her message by telling her followers that she “outgrew” her hermit crab “shell” and was off to find “the new one.”

    She later reposted the video on Instagram with the caption, “I am so excited for what I am building next, for stepping out into faith, and to betting on myself and my dreams. If I didn’t do it now, I would forever regret it.”
