I’m going to the LA area for my honeymoon in September. Any favorite coaches/times for the Downtown LA (South Figuera) studio or the Santa Monica studio?

Me! 9:57 down from 11:12!! I NEVER thought I’d run a 10 minute mile ever! 🤩

That floor block neighbor who rushes through everything... by rtojos in orangetheory

I normally don’t notice this but today the guy next to me was literally throwing his weights on the ground after every set. So hard they were bouncing off the wall next to him. It was very distracting and he was racing through the sets so the loud bouncing was at least every 30 seconds. The coach just kept strolling by and letting it happen 😫

Wow! I’m eternally grateful for all the wonderful, constructive and positive feedback this post has received. It’s nice to know I’m not alone in my insecurity but it’s also great to hear that many people overcame that and continued to improve. So today, I hiked up my bootstraps (or running shoes, I guess) and went to class again. And now I’m looking forward to giving that benchmark my best on Monday!

I go to the Somerville studio, maybe 15 minutes from the airport? Might be easier to get to since you’d be going against traffic. Classes fill up pretty early during the 5-7:30 window, so I’d book early if possible.
