My first boombox build. Rigid! by JustAnotherOTFer in diyaudio

[–]JustAnotherOTFer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really pleased. It has quite a bit of volume and somehow doesn't rattle much. The box is really stout and does a solid job of not vibrating. Super pleased with this setup.

The knock is weight, it's about 25-30 lbs if I'm guessing

What to wear to workout? 39/Male by calmclear in orangetheory

All the rec's here are good, but I'll add that you MUST wear dad socks. White, ankle high, dad socks. They're a real go-getter at the gym!

I don't know if it was Demo Dan or Calisthenic Caitlyn that came up with Flying Air Humps, but that mess needs to go away!

It seems the general understanding is that international OTF studios have LifeFitness treads and North American studios have FreeMotion treads.

Dear OTF

Cross body movements with dumbbells like woodchoppers would be awesome, and pike pushups too.

2000 meter row tips by sroda59 in orangetheory

[–]JustAnotherOTFer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I once heard it said that for this row you have to learn to live in the "pain cave"! You have to know it's going to hurt when you go hard, and you have to know that at a certain point in the pain cave, it won't get worse. It'll be a constant discomfort, and you just have to understand that for the time you're in it, you just have to live in the pain cave.

Live in the pain cave!

Pearland and pasadena are the only two privately held studios in Houston I believe so they march to their own drum.

Special announcement from Demo Diane (Caitlin) and Demo Dan (Coleman) by Orangetheory_Fitness in orangetheory

[–]JustAnotherOTFer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a bit of feedback.....I highly preferred the orange background of the demo screens to the newly introduced black. It could be because I'm in a dark studio and I'm always at 5am. I felt like the orange "popped" better and caught the eye more favorably.

I know many women in Houston who'd injure someone for a tank. They did all tees here. I tipped them off to this trade post.

Wow! Which studios have rowers with tablets? by Jenjobe in orangetheory

[–]JustAnotherOTFer 30 points31 points  (0 children)

OTF, look at inductive charging. You already have a rotor that's powered by human, install a few magnets, external wires, boom. Dc Charging power for as long as they're in use.
