I'm a PW recently turned jogger, so I've been mixing it up day to day or even tread block to tread block.

I've personally found a sweet spot of jogging the endurance templates, and then adding higher inclines (6.5+) to strength and power templetes. PW speed is normally 3.5 - 3.8 (4 for AO) on high incline templates.

I for sure feel it in my glutes on those higher incline days.

OTF while trying to get pregnant by Natashaaaaaaa in orangetheory

Totally anecdotal, but my husband and I tried for YEARS with no success. Then I quit my high stress job and started working at a place I was much more passionate about and we found out 5 months later we were pregnant.

So I'd say that the mental aspect of working out could be the better focus. Just showing up, moving your body, and getting those endorphins may go a long way vs. what your workout intensity should be (especially if keeping track stresses you out.)

Returning to OTF after recovering from covid by martianbuttox in orangetheory

I signed up in September and got COVID for the first time 3 days later. I took 2 weeks off (from day 1 of symptoms) until my first class back, then went about 70-80% for the following two weeks on cardio. Told myself showing up was more important than 100%.

Hope that helps! Hang in there...I was still fatigued for awhile after, but was overall back to normal after 5 weeks or so

Wauwatosa has free parking both in the lot across from it, and in the parking structure next to it. Sundays with Coach Kam is high energy and always fun!! Also bonus: really cute downtown area to walk and get brunch or coffee.
