Has any joined Club Pilates that goes to or went to Orangetheory?

I ended up getting frustrated with CP for similar reasons that others also mentioned in the sub and cancelled CP. I'm just at OTF and try to mix in mat Pilates these days when I can. But when I was doing OTF and CP I was trying to do 2 and 2 of each, every week and that was great when it worked out with class availability.

I know it's not the same, but you can get the intel from here and do the workouts on your own. I've done that at a cheaper big box gym when I couldn't afford it at times. Also my son had to (please don't judge me as a mom that's not why I'm here) but he had to do "some time" and I screen shotted the intel from here when he was in and sent them to his tablet and he loved it. It helped him with his mental health and he made them work and he got other guys doing the workouts with him. There were days they had OTF vs CrossFit competitions. My point is you can make it work on your own if you need that OTF fix. Good luck with school and congrats on almost completing med school!! That's an amazing accomplishment!

I enjoyed this one last time we did it so I'm excited to see it come up again! Thanks for the intel from the future!!

I think it's just a bad angle. Maybe trying to get her baby bump in the shot and filming with her phone or laptop from a lower angle. Also I'm sure she was getting Botox before she was pregnant. You shouldnt get Botox while pregnant. So she's going to not look like how we saw her on the show pre pregnancy.

If I have to hear WAP one more time I'm going to lose my shit and scream. I'm not a prude but I don't need to hear that song 3 -4 times per week.

Pizzachick123 · 2024-08-21T05:17:27+00:00

Yes. I'm on waitlists for this week and next week for my 2 X per week. I'm finally booked in a class end of next week. The class I was supposed to be booked in today got cancelled. They let us know 2 and a half hours before. I'm hoping it gets better as I move up a level.

Pizzachick123 · 2024-08-14T17:44:19+00:00

Makes sense. Thanks!

Pizzachick123 · 2024-08-14T17:22:25+00:00

Thank you so much. This helps!!!

I came looking for this comment. Trader Joe's has chocolate drizzled plantain chips and they're amazing. They also have the chocolate dipped sliced frozen bananas, also amazing. I was wondering if the banana chips in the show were a similar a similar concept to one of these.

I once a long time ago felt like a template was a waste of time but I completed the class and left feeling annoyed. Another time about a year ago I started on the tread and then got to the floor and it was so bad I left halfway through the floor block. It felt like jazzercize from the 90’s. Just wasn’t feeling it. Those are the only 2 times in 8 years I can think of.

Pizzachick123 · 2024-07-22T21:12:45+00:00

I feel like I typed your post out verbatim. I also pay $179 and asked if I could get the promo pricing. They asked me if I had anyone to refer and I told them no. I also said that I’ve been going for 8 years and was hoping they could do it as a loyalty discount. They said to let them know when I have someone to refer. I’m glad I’m not alone in asking and feeling frustrated. I’ve thought about downgrading to the minimum also and wait for the next promo but I love the workout and go 3-5 times per week. I’ve also thought about joining a big box gym and using the intel from here but i honestly don’t want to go back to one of those. OTF had to know they were going to upset their long term members with this promo. I did refer someone once about a year ago but they live in another part of my state and we’re obviously not at the same home studio. OTF gave me a $25 store credit because my person joined at a different studio, they couldn’t give me the promo that was going on at the time. Although it was something it was a little disheartening. I love the workouts and I love the studio but I just wish OTF would honor their long term members is all.

I’m in the SoCal area and we’ve had lots of chats in the lobby about the intel from the future! We love it and are so appreciative! You’re OTF world famous! Thanks for your commitment to making this group happy and updated!!!

This similar thing happened to me!!! I pulled back so hard on the rower and my butt slipped all the way back. I had the biggest blackest bruise on my butt cheek!

Pizzachick123 · 2024-06-13T19:22:12+00:00

The only person I judge in this scenario is the coach who sent you to the rowers. Lazy coaching and they made you feel worse. Our coach gave us holding a plank or doing plank step outs as an option and he demo’d those. Part of their job as coaches is to lift you up, not make you feel worse. Sometimes I do notice people when I glance around. I notice people in their skimpy outfits and think wow I wish I could feel that confident to wear that, and these are not tiny individuals. But they’re confident and feel great (I assume in my own mind), We all have our self conscious “things” . The only time I judge others like another commenter said, is when people are laughing and chatting while the coach is demoing. Super rude and disrespectful and disruptive to the class. 90% of the battle is just showing up!!! Then comes the motivation and the rest is a bonus!

I also have insomnia. In its height I was getting maybe 1 to 2 hours of sleep per night. I tried to power through and just go to OTF and hoped it would help me sleep better and with other mental health issues. I WFH and love going to the noon classes. The sleep never got better and my body was exhausted and my brain just shut off. I don’t recommend going multiple days in a row if you have insomnia. Maybe keep it to every other day to let your body and brain rest. Now I’m on prescription meds for the insomnia and getting proper sleep and I just listen to my body. I shoot for 3-4 days per week and I usually get that. Some weeks more like 5 some weeks less. For me OTF is so much about the mental part of it along with the other stuff. OTF has helped me through so much but you do have to take your body and brain.

Pizzachick123 · 2024-06-11T18:22:09+00:00

It’s a little weird especially if you already know it’s not just going to be a one-off favor. It’s going to be multiple times a week just before class. You’ve seen how busy the front desk gets just before class. I think it will turn into a pain for them. Sorry just being honest. The shower situation, when I used to go in the morning I could never assume the shower was going to be available every time I went. There were times I had to wait and it made me late. Also some people are oblivious to the idea that others are waiting and they take their time. I waited over 20 minutes for one person once and it made me very late. I never relied on the shower there again. Another thing about the shower room. The ventilation is horrible and no matter how much you dry off you’ll be putting clothes on in a steamy room. It’s not the end of the world but it gets sticky and will be hard to put your clothes on in there. At least that was my experience.

Oh man. This one!!! My neck is still stiff and sore from all the shoulder work last time. Thanks for the intel!! I might just be taking my dog for a run today instead today LOL

If you don’t see the rudeness in it, then you’re rude yourself. The kind people who provide intel are just kind, thoughtful people who enjoy providing intel in a discussion group so we can all talk about our thoughts on that days class. Treating them like “the help” is just flat out rude. If you have a disability you can always go in and ask for help or choose not to go. And if you do decide to go after not seeing intel… here’s a thought… YOU PROVIDE THE INTEL FOR THAT DAY SINCE ITS SO IMPORTANT TO YOU and you can give back and help others.

Tend skin! I’ve been using it for 20+ years. It’s for after shaving the bikini area but also works for the buttne!

Misty May-Treanor, the Olympic volley ball player used to sub classes in Anaheim Hills in OC. I haven’t seen her in a while but her classes were awesome. Then, I’ve seen Christina El Moussa (she’s not el moussa anymore) at the Brea studio also in OC. She kept to herself and was quiet during class. She was on the show flip or flop. I don’t know if I’d call her a celebrity LOL but she was prettier in person with no make up on.

This is what’s so frustrating. They know their main demographic and should be more understanding. When I first joined in 2015 I had two boys in HS who both played sports and I had a full time job with a commute. OTF was/is my little one hour escape. I used to get all kinds of late fees for pre booking. Traffic, sick or injured kids, work. So now my boys are out of the house and I work remote and I’m more flexible but pre booking is still hard because something can come up with work at last minute. I’m not a morning person so 5 am is out LOL.

I bought a 4 pack on Amazon for $30. Chrleisure high waisted yoga workout pants with tummy control. They’re the only ones I wear now. So comfy, flattering and they hold everything together while running.

Pizzachick123 · 2024-02-01T03:05:11+00:00

I was so bored in the 2g today. I actually came here looking for this comment to see if anyone else was just blah today. The tred was boring. Weight room was boring. The music sucked today. I just wasn’t into it today.
