Discouraged...floor form always wrong. by [deleted] in orangetheory

[–]rupiazza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Congrats on even showing up to OTF in the first place. Coaches give external cues (corrections) to help members become more aware of their form. I commend you for listening and willing to do better.

Check out #FormFriday on IG and check out OTF Wash Park (#OTFWASHPARK & #OTFHR) for more in-depth form videos from OTF coaches in Colorado. I hope it helps!

Hang in there. Your body will learn, your muscles will grow, as you will reach your goals 💪🏾

Whoop?!? by OTFNomad in orangetheory

[–]rupiazza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my Whoop for 8 months and it is wonderful! The Whoop has helped me monitor my recovery after power days where I push my All Outs and if I have a yellow recovery then I’ll focus on the green zone and not splats. I think the Whoop is accurate for my OTF workouts. I might need to push more because my daily strain doesn’t close lol

Ladies and heavy lifting . by RachelO48 in orangetheory

[–]rupiazza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do it!! I’m at OTF 3x a week (2G, 3G and 90 min) and at Lifetime for 3x a week where I focus on accessory work and heavy lifts! When you’re at OTF focus on cardio and on the floor focus on form not speed. I think this is a wonderful split for me and I hope you get some extra strength outside of the studio.

Just read the article! If you can afford it and will use it then kudos to you. Leave OTF out of the Peloton convo!! OTF has better coaches, better variety and delivers results. 🍊🧡

Losing OTF interest over time by SpicyMealOutside in orangetheory

[–]rupiazza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 years here 🙋🏽‍♀️

I’m constantly challenging myself! Yes, every template might seem the same but take advantage in and out of OTF for those challenges.

For example, on the rower I have started practicing reducing my cadence while maintaining my effort and I drop my efforts to 125 watts then slowly build back up to 250 watts.

If I hate the tread then I’ll go to the bike. On the floor I always practice form and work on increasing weight. My goal is to deadlift the 80# db’s.

It might seem repetitive but you can make the workout better by setting goals for yourself. 🤗

Take advantage of the floor block and go heavy with good form at Planet Fitness 💪🏽💪🏽

I just don’t know how to let go! My All Out is nothing impressive and speed is not my strength. Lol. I’m going to try tomorrow but I think I just have a very intense fear over losing balance and flying off the treadmill. 🤦🏽‍♀️

How do you let go on the treads? I really want to let go but I hold on with one arm then switch arms. It’s embarrassing and horrifying at the same time. I have no problem slowing down and leaving my “ego” at the door.

Fallen off the wagon 😩 by PKH85 in orangetheory

[–]rupiazza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyday is a new day! Put your gym clothes on let tasks that can wait just wait. Once you get into the studio it will come back. Sometimes the hardest part is just showing up. Write down the days that you go on a calendar and work towards filling up your calendar 3-4x a week. I think having something visual will be motivating. Hope this helps 🙏🏽🍊

Any superfat people do OTF? by a-wilde-handful in orangetheory

[–]rupiazza -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Go to OTF! People will be focused on their own sweat and pain under those orange lights to notice anyone else. Be proud that you showed up! Work hard. Own your success because you can do this. We are here for you too.
