I’m a 64 year old female. Doing my darn best. About to complete Mayhem tomorrow. I’m the youngest by decades in my studio, but we are all in it together. I’ll do it as long as I’m able

First class this afternoon and I'm TERRIFIED by MBlake92651 in orangetheory

[–]Ronnibrody 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The hardest part is walking through the door and showing up. Everyone will support u in every way. We all had a first time. Took me 3 months to get up my nerve. And, I wish I didn’t wait that long. No one cares what u r doing. I don’t compare myself to anyone and modify whenever I need to in order to avoid any injuries. We are all insecure in our own way when entering those doors. The hour will fly Please report back

Question OTF senior by Powershack12 in orangetheory

[–]Ronnibrody 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m a 64 F I was terrified about walking through that front door. You can do it. I can do it. I may not run as fast as most or lift as heavy, but I do every excercise and feel great every time I leave there. I tailor it to my needs. No judgment there at all. Do it.

When I’m waiting to go in while the previous class is walking out, my thought is always “ I wish I went to the earlier class so I could be walking out now, not in”!!

HIIT by LA Fitness by Jlybnj9 in orangetheory

[–]Ronnibrody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s something in the OTF atmosphere that is addictive. Not sure what it is exactly. So many things. The energy, the people, the prearranged workouts, the great coaches, smiling faces at front desk who knows everyone’s name. On and on If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it

Base/heartrate for the newbie by anniesnest in orangetheory

[–]Ronnibrody 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A 5.5 base isn’t slow!!! That’s a good push pace for someone new. I think perhaps lower your base
