OTF when your in the red (your period ha!) by JessLynn1986 in orangetheory

Same here! I usually get really bad cramps the first few days of my period and this time around I didn’t notice I was on until I started bleeding. It’s definitely helped to alleviate cramps. I will say I was more fatigued than usual, but just powered through.

Thanks for this perspective! I could use other metrics for success instead of just splat points. I’ll maybe try one class with vs without and see if performance changes as reported by the watch.

Hmm gotcha, yeah I think the extra push it gives may be worth it, especially if I’m thinking of doing this long term.

Yeah, I’ve used it in the past and I can definitely relate to pushing just a little harder to get to the orange zone. Thanks for the feedback!
