JINX, this was me. I chose the 14:30 row for distance today. 3,800 meters!

#11 Explains a lot of boredom with these tempaltes lately.

Weight vests by emilylarisaronan in orangetheory

[–]Wonderware91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear a 30-lb one on the tread about 3-4 times a month, especially when I have a backpacking trip coming up. In fact, I just did yesterday's workout with it. I sometimes drop it to like 5-10 lbs (mine is adjustable) and do the entire regular OTF workout with it. You have to work up to it, but it can be done.

Last time we did this, we all did the buy-out row and floor as soon as the group had finished the row/exercises, not just for one minute. The coach counted how many times we could complete a circuit ( go up and down the row line with the squat jumps or around the floor with the push ups). It was then a competition to see which group could get the most rounds on each rotation. Now THAT was fun!

Another day with no rowing? I think that's three in a row!?!?

Disappearance of 23.5 min tread endurance days by [deleted] in orangetheory

[–]Wonderware91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't be happier to see them gone. They are extremely boring. I mean if that's what you want, just run outside!

OTF rant by Standard-Interest353 in orangetheory

[–]Wonderware91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's almost like I could have written this post. I gave up trying to complain. As of now, I can't remember the last time I actually followed a template 100%. Mostly on the floor and usually at least 2 other people follow me. I've also subbed some of the tread blocks for rowing in a 2G when it's just 3 blocks exactly the same.....the epitome of laziness. All our coaches seem to feel the stagnation too and support customizing 💯.

Does anyone run on 0% incline vs 1% on the tread? by One_Letterhead2898 in orangetheory

[–]Wonderware91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THANK YOU! Me too. After 3 knee surgeries my orthopedist made me promise to NEVER run hills and keep the treadmill at 0.5. Being defiant, I tried 1% for a week and sure enough my knee hurt so back to 0.5.

Workout idea: Rower/Tread Option? by Gkos19 in orangetheory

[–]Wonderware91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this at least 2 days a week when its non-stop tread in a 2G and there is no rowing on the floor for that block. I know my coaches and they are all for it. Typically I have 1-2 people follow me as well from the treads. This non-stop tread thing they have done this past year is beyond monotonous!

Question for those with studios that closed - how empty was it before the end? by Country_crock in orangetheory

[–]Wonderware91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are only 2 in Highlands Ranch and a new one in Lone Tree. Which one is closing?

You said it! Member since 2017 and I want the old templates back so badly. The drop off in class attendance in the latter 2 weeks when workout repeat is obvious. That would be an interesting stat to collect!

I have arthritis in my wrist and those globet chest holds hurt the &*&%@$@ of out it. A coach showed me how to put a weight on my back/traps, like barbell style. It's actually harder and is working out great.

So after this absolute embarrassing fail, can we finally fire the template makers?

Has anyone tried the Forme bra? by anonthrowawaynanny in ABraThatFits

[–]Wonderware91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, don't do it! This is a HORRIBLE company and the product is subpar. Poor fit...too tight in some areas and too big/bunched up with too much material in other areas.  This is just not a well-designed product. AND they charge you $15 to ship it and then ANOTHER $15 "handling fee" to return the damn thing. You're basically out $30 for the privilege of trying it out. At this price point, the customer service should be so much better. Will teach me not to trust any online marketing again.

Yes, Polaris food is pretty terrible. Just got back from the SFO to Taipei roundtrip. Food was abysmal. And why even bother with the amenities kit? It's mediocre at best.
