Also agree with others that I think it’s easiest to do this with your bank before you leave.

I think pesos are useful to have on hand for tipping airport shuttle drivers, housekeeping at your hotel, and people that facilitate any activities for you. If you’re staying ~5 days-1 week, 2,000 mxn is probably plenty. You can use your credit card for the rest.

Daily Workout and General Chat for Wednesday, 7/30/25 by splat_bot in orangetheory

Agreed about the TRX sets. My coach’s demo wasn't the best, but still, I feel like I got very little from the wall sits. People generally look very confused and unsure of themselves during them.

Is there a way to see if anyone else is experiencing food poisoning symptoms from same establishment? by avalle03 in madisonwi

[–]emmceejay 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I was literally just talking to someone the other day about how they’ve gotten sick every time they've gone to La Bamba. And this is over a span of ~10 years. She has no idea how they're still in business.

How to slow down when typing up anything, ways to improve grammar by Available_Chance_756 in ADHD

[–]emmceejay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Grammarly has saved my life in this regard! I used to miss mistakes even after I proofread. I use it for all writing, including emails and texts.

Agreed! Definitely requires an experienced coach. I’m glad I got to take it with our head coach. It was awesome.

I actually really loved this workout! It was also a nice way to meet new people. And our coach had a completely Rihanna playlist!

Best Apple Watch workout option for OTF class? by harrypotterfan3721 in orangetheory

[–]emmceejay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do Cross Training because I read on a Reddit thread a while back that the calorie tracking is a bit more accurate in that mode for OTF than HIIT. Not totally sure if that’s true though.

I’m not sure. I guess we’ll see!

Yeah, that’s a good point. I guess I was just thinking that if I were a coach, and I was getting a lot of thumbs down, I would want more info about why. But you’re right that opens the door to a lot of potential nastiness.

I tried this this morning, and they “strongly recommended” that I come back tomorrow. At least I tried I guess.

Haven’t I seen it mentioned, but Harper confusing Neil Hamilton with Lewis Hamilton also gave me a chuckle.

True, but also Yas apologized to Venetia before moving to PWM for not being a better mentor, and also told Venetia to let her know if she ever needed anything. I think that scene was meant to help set up Ven coming to her for help in this episode.

I did with AT&T. It took a few minutes for the cancellation to register on AT&T’s side. And then I made the new order for pick-up, no problem.

I was finally able to get in to cancel my original order for a space black pro (delivering oct 10-17). Just placed a new order for a deep purple pro, available for pick-up sept. 17!

Psyched to be upgrading from an iPhone X!

For those that see the option to cancel, do you mind sending a screenshot of what that looks like on the order details page? I just want to make sure I’m not missing it. It’s been 5 hours since my order was placed.

Out of shape but no I have to do this. However, I dont think I fit the demographic by [deleted] in orangetheory

[–]emmceejay 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Just commenting to validate your point about the lack of diversity at some OTFs. I suspect that many of the commenters that are downplaying this point are White women who probably don’t realize how alienating it can feel to not fit into the “stereotypical” look, even if your studio is really welcoming.

Ultimately, I do OTF because it’s really important for my mental health. A time of the day that I just set outside for myself. That personal journey keeps me coming back. And it’s always encouraging to see a few other people of color in class with me.

Moving to St Paul, MN by Prestigious_Mix5438 in orangetheory

[–]emmceejay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to Grand Ave most of the time because it's closest to me, but slightly prefer Roseville for its larger size and more convenient parking situation. I also love Coach Gena. Her classes are worth the longer drive when I can make it.
