Padded seats tend to have more padding - seems great, but actually causes more discomfort and numbness in the long run. They also don't account for chafing - you don't want a friction burn between your legs.

So slim hard seats are actually more comfortable over time and cause less damage to the skin and tissue around your sit bones. You need to make sure your sit bones (ischial tuberosity) are well situated. The sit bones of your hips are designed to support weight for long periods of time, where a plush seat disperses your weight to muscles and other areas, which leads to longer pain and numbness. Padded shorts/underwear designed for cycling move with you as you shift in the seat. You can often get inserts just designed like underwear so you don't need to get a whole new set of workout pants - this is what I often use since I have a bazillion pairs of workout pants, and it's also far cheaper than just buying cycling pants. I hope this helps!

Here's a great pair that I use that are only $10.

Edit: also, clip in shoes will really up your workout, since your feet are constantly connected and engaged with the bike. Not only do you have more stability, but you get a better push and follow through on the pedal, workout more muscles than just engaging your foot to the pedal. Gloves, for me anyway, for indoor cycling is just because I'm a sweaty beast.
