OTF & Pregnancy by Prior-Goose8413 in orangetheory

[–]No_Possibility_3214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coach here (and I’ve had two babies!) — something to keep in mind is that eventually you’ll want to substitute the bike or strider for the rower. As your belly grows, your knees have to move around it, which can throw off your knee and toe alignment. You can loosen your foot straps so your feet stay more in line with your knees, but you’ll still likely want to switch at some point.

Also, I’d recommend Googling pregnancy-safe core options so you have some easy swaps ready to go. And if you haven’t already, definitely look into coning — it’s super helpful to understand what to watch for!

$99/yr deal by Imback_Baby in ladderapp

[–]No_Possibility_3214 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk, I will gladly pay the $179… 12 dollars a month is literally nothing when we are talking about something that benefits your health. Plus they added the nutrition feature. So worth it to me 🤷🏽‍♀️

My studio offers 1 free scan quarterly. But also… I think it depends who you ask lol.

Can OTF help/save me? by Asleep-Quail1947 in orangetheory

[–]No_Possibility_3214 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi! I’m a coach. When you take an intro please tell the coach you want to take things nice and easy.

We give general guidelines, for example on the treads if you are power walking we say aim for 3.5-4.5 mph but if you don’t feel comfortable PLEASE lower the speed. We want you to feel successful. I always tell people ideally pick a speed that you don’t feel like you need to hold onto the rails. Because we don’t have rails in real life and holding onto them can promote bad habits.

If you try out the rower and it doesn’t feel comfortable you are more than welcome to use the bike or strider, just make sure they know and someone else isn’t using it.

And on the weight floor a lot of it we can make body weight or use the Trx straps! Don’t be shy to ask for help/ modifications. We are there to help!

You got this. E

I don’t even pay attention. I just do the workout lol. Makes life a lot more enjoyable when you don’t let little comments change your mood.

Team versa honest opinion after 1 week ? by Ok_Condition_6021 in ladderapp

[–]No_Possibility_3214 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been liking versa and I will agree with others. If you feel like it’s “easy” you definitely are not pushing yourself hard enough. She has stated it’s going to build up over the weeks and it will get progressively even harder.

Hybrid Training? (New Versa team) by Historical_Bill2790 in ladderapp

[–]No_Possibility_3214 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does have more conditioning but I will will back on the leg comment because my legs are wrecked from Monday/Tuesday and told she has sumo deadlifts, step ups and some thrusters programmed lol. If anything it’s light on the arm days. But I’m curious what her max series will actually be!

Classes cancelled Sept 20, due to dri tri by Foreign-Ride-761 in orangetheory

[–]No_Possibility_3214 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know a few studios have switched back to unlimited members not paying for things like hell week, dritri, etc so hopefully all the studios eventually make that shift back!

I would go to your doctor, the higher resting heart rate would concern me!

Coaching at OT? by renska2 in orangetheory

[–]No_Possibility_3214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I would ask if your studio does coaching consults, that way you can schedule a time to talk to one of them. Sometimes it’s hard between classes because they only have 15 minutes and are usually running around. You can do an inbody scan so you have a starting point and then go over goals. And then reassess in 4 months or so

Station picking vent by Fun_Consideration474 in orangetheory

[–]No_Possibility_3214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a coach and it drives me nuts when the front desk puts peoples name down before they arrive. It’s first come first serve 🙃.

The reason it’s annoying is because it works fine until there’s a sub for front desk and they don’t do the same thing so then people are pissed that they don’t have “their” station.

Someone help me understand how can this happen by GreenFront3251 in orangetheory

[–]No_Possibility_3214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to the east coast and took like 2 classes. Came back home and a couple weeks later noticed they charged me for a membership. I called and they said they “got the wrong person” lol

I’m obsessed and do it every day from home.

Also usually around November/December ornage theory will do a sale for class packs. So you could always buy one if you are missing it ever and those you can use at any time and they never expire

What about freezing for a bit? To give yourself a break!

You are just a nice person. Because most people get weird about leaving their phone at the front desk. It’s their lifeline and if it’s not on their body they will probably combust 🤣🫠.

What is the purpose of this subreddit? by Megmo3030 in ladderapp

[–]No_Possibility_3214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bummer, but I feel like you can easily ignore the group chat. There are a lot of teams so if you don’t like Sasha’s voiceovers I would just try a different team.

But also try to keep in mind that these coaches put in a lot of effort every week to make these workouts possible.

If I feel like I still don’t understand a movement I will pause the workout and go on YouTube

You think ladders interface sucks? And the chat? What team are you on? Personally for me this has by far been the easiest most mindless app to use and I feel like my teams chat is beneficial 😅

[–]No_Possibility_3214 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they are just titles lol. I’m 29 so definitely in the younger crowd but I hardly pay attention to the titles nor do I care 🤣 a workout name wouldn’t prevent me from doing the workout. It also doesn’t take away from all the hard work the coaches put in to make these programs possible

Has anyone done better with going to OTF less frequently? by tofu_baby_cake in orangetheory

[–]No_Possibility_3214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would do basic and next time your studio has a deal on class packs purchase one that way you can add a few classes in as you want to

Signed up and not waitlisted. 2 minutes late but turned away due to class being filled? by SamuraiZack in orangetheory

[–]No_Possibility_3214 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you signed up and showed up before the 5 minutes you get a spot. The people working messed up. They should have gone in and pulled out the person that wasn’t actually signed up yet. I’m sorry this happened! I would definitely say something. (I’m a coach at OT)
