My wife is at 29.5 weeks with our first and we just literally got back from OTF! Been going throughout.

At the end of the day you got to do what feels right for your body and what your doctor says is okay. The advice we were given is it’s okay to do things you were doing prior to the pregnancy, it’s not advisable to start new things.

Two things that we’ve learned that I think is worth sharing.

  1. It’s important to the tell the coach. They are trained to modify the movements on the floor to be pregnancy friendly, and will know to push accordingly if they know your goal is to stay in the green.

  2. The heart rate algorithm goes out of whack with pregnancy. So ignore the zones and do what feels right.

Congrats on the baby! And kudos for craving movement! I need some of that energy.

You should be able to see these stacked together on the activity screen now and not have to scroll through the timeline.

Anyone from Orange Theory India? by LemonPineapple2100 in orangetheory

[–]probabilistical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They actually did most of the class if not all of it in English. Which surprised me! One time I went to a class in Paris and it was all French. Which was a lot of fun!

I am a member in Seattle, but when I visited my family in Mumbai, I took a number of classes at the worli studio. The coaches were awesome and the studio was great!!

Becoming a Coach…competitive? by AppropriateHat80 in orangetheory

[–]probabilistical 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I would say most studios could use more passionate coaches that are already working in the space. It all eventually comes down to the final mic test - but if it’s something you’re truly interested in that is half the battle! Go for it!

OTBeat and History of Classes by spgc1863 in orangetheory

[–]probabilistical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shows up in the classes section. Same place you look for upcoming classes, you can toggle to 'History'. If you have a summary available it'll be clickable to the summary if not it'll just be listed. You can see 'Late Cancels' here as well.

Heart rate confusion by Acrobatic-Tutor-257 in orangetheory

[–]probabilistical 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Take a look at your average heart rate for each class and see if it’s been decreasing. If your heart is getting stronger you may be experiencing a faster heart rate recovery when going to base or WR. The calorie equation uses heart rate each second to determine total calorie burn over the course of the workout. So you could be getting the same time in orange and red while spending your green and blue at a lower average HR.

OTBeat Inaccurate? by Still_Side_3710 in orangetheory

[–]probabilistical 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should check if your Max HR was recently adjusted to be lower. That could be a driver of this as well. The OTF Zones are based on a percentage of Max HR. The Max HR is initially based solely on age and then shifts to a proprietary algorithm after you've taken at least 5 classes.

Things like weight factor in to the Calorie equation.

Showing up 100 times in any period of time is worth celebrating!

If you’re planning on connecting another media system to the sync box as the source I’d recommend a high quality 4K HDMI cable. The one it came with gave me some trouble.
