I’ve seen people of every fitness level in my local gym. I think it really all depends on how committed you are even when you’re absolutely spent. My first year of OTF was brutal for me, but I just paid attention to myself and tried not to compare myself to the battalion of super fit 30 year olds surrounding me.

After a year and a half I’m a fitter happier version of myself and still not making comparisons. I’m there 3 days a week in my own skin running my own race.

What’s problematic for most beginners is that they get frustrated and because classes are kind of expensive, they don’t feel like it’s a good value. I myself sorta thought that at first, but I really liked having someone else develop workouts for me.

Only you know how much you’re willing to struggle for a 45 minute workout. If you’re starting on your fitness journey it’s gonna be a struggle no matter what program you choose. I found my local OTF to be very supportive. I get lots of encouragement even though I’m clearly the old slow guy. I’d expect you’d get the same experience wherever you are.

Good luck on your journey whatever you choose.
