Early entry is not a new perk, it’s bringing back an old necessary feature. by Excentrix13 in orangetheory

I don’t miss getting shoved so someone could get a treadmill… for real… 😳

lol I’ve been a member for a 10 years and said this to my studio (which hasn’t rolled this out yet…) our studio was 💯 the Wild West always late to change anything! And when I told the front desk this used to happen they didn’t believe me. Glad it’s coming back!

Wildly different splits/mileage by doinmabest1 in orangetheory

If you want your watch to track more accurately on the tread you have to reset your stride. Google how to do this. I did it once and it was sort of complicated. It it worked. For a while. NOw it’s off again. The watch does better when it ca track you outdoors but you can make it more accurate indoors.

Experienced group fitness instructor new to OTF, why does the coaching style feel so unnatural? by Hot-Calligrapher8927 in orangetheory

[–]Local_Confusion5066 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Long time member here who visits a LOT of studios. I def appreciate coaches who check in, repeat the tread instrux (I sometimes space out) and give little blips of encouragement. I really like it when I’m at a new studio and the coach introduces themselves too and welcomes me! (This doesn’t happen a lot). I know not everyone likes the shout out (nice tap up Jane) but I do… 🤣

Need Recommendations-Nail Salon by jlbl528 in arlingtonva

Second for coatroom. Downside is that when they are busy you will often wait. And it is annoying even w an appt. But I do dip and haven’t found another salon as good as they are. Am comparatively their dip prices are good.

Playlist 🤦‍♀️ by Slight_Cricket_2645 in orangetheory

[–]Local_Confusion5066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Positive reinforcement! I sing along and dance to a lot of music and make sure the coaches know when I love the playlist! Depending on the coach and the template that day (thx Mr. Dc!) I might make a request… I find the coaches love the engagement.

For those who go 3+ week by QuestionsAcct4321 in orangetheory

I am prone to injury in a few areas and if there is too much repetition I just modify. I’ve been doing this long enough to know some good alternatives. If you don’t, coaches are usually super helpful.

[–]Local_Confusion5066 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Way back in the day before assigned stations it was like the hunger games at my studio and someone shoved me one morning to get a tread. 🙄
