Orangetheory Fitness is a top choice for busy mums, offering innovative workouts and a supportive community. Despite their hectic schedules, these mums prioritise their health under the orange lights.
Known as Orangetheory mums, they excel both at home and in the studio, pursuing a range of fitness goals—from keeping up with kids to regaining confidence or preparing for marathons. Despite their diverse backgrounds, they all share a commitment to self-care through effective Orangetheory workouts.
Did you know the American Heart Association recommends getting either 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic exercise a week, or 150 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise plus strength training on two or more days? Just two to three Orangetheory Fitness classes a week can help you meet those guidelines!
And so that’s what Orangetheory mums do: attend to the treads, rowers and floors at their nearest studio and crush it. Week after week.
So, why do mums love Orangetheory Fitness?
What makes Orangetheory fitness perfect for mums
Effective and Efficient Workouts
Time is precious, and Orangetheory Fitness offers workouts that maximise results in a short period. Combining cardio and strength training, these sessions help burn calories and build lean muscle, enabling you to reach your fitness goals faster.
“The reason I came to Orangetheory was because I needed to find myself again after my son was diagnosed with severe autism,” shares Jessica Miller of Cleveland, Ohio. “I had let my health and fitness go and it was time for me to put myself back on the list of priorities. I found that if I give fully to myself and care for my own body and mind that I can give him the best too. The workouts are straightforward and easy to follow. It’s mindless. You set that tread and go. I always feel so great and glad I went.”
Not to mention, the workouts are effective. “Orangetheory has kept my strength and endurance up so I can keep up with playing with my kids and carrying them (and all of their stuff) in as few trips as possible,” says Nancy Marra of Latham, NY. “I also don't mind hearing my kids tell their friends, ‘My mummy is strong’ or ‘My mummy has big muscles.’”

How Orangetheory fitness helps moms achieve their fitness goals
Balancing numerous responsibilities, it’s no wonder finding time for fitness can be tough. Orangetheory Fitness offers a unique and effective workout experience that helps mums achieve their fitness goals. Here are several reasons why mums choose Orangetheory:
Customized Workouts for Every Fitness Level
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced fitness enthusiast, Orangetheory provides customised workouts tailored to your needs. Certified coaches guide you through each session, ensuring you get the most out of your workout while minimising injury risks.
Motivating and Knowledgeable Coaches
Orangetheory coaches are not just fitness experts; they are great motivators! They understand the unique challenges mums face and provide the support and encouragement needed to stay committed to your fitness journey.
When you’re investing time and money in your fitness routine, it’s crucial that the people leading you through your workouts know more than just how to perform a goblet squat. Jade Elliot of Oklahoma City has worked out at OTF through three pregnancies.
She says, “When my coaches found out I was pregnant with my first, they all made sure they were educated on how to properly exercise while pregnant. They always gave me proper modifications and encouraged me the whole time to continue exercising while pregnant!”
The range of class times
From 4:30 a.m. to well past dinnertime, OTF is here for you. Leah Toman Price of San Antonio gets her two kids off to school, then heads out to class. “I used to be an afternoon workout girl, but I love my mornings now! Get the day started and I get it done!”
Lindsey Blitvich of Cornelius, North Carolina, agrees: “I go to the 5 a.m. classes, and being able to get it out of the way first thing helps me stick to it. As soon as I get home, I am getting myself ready for work while also packing lunches and getting the kids ready. If I didn’t have that early morning session outside of the house, my workout just wouldn’t happen.”
Variety and Fun in Every Workout
The combination of cardio, strength, and endurance training keeps you engaged and excited. Each session is different, preventing boredom and continually challenging your body for better results.
Community and Camaraderie
Orangetheory is more than just a fitness studio; it's a supportive community. The positive and friendly atmosphere allows you to connect with like-minded individuals who share similar goals, helping you stay motivated and committed.
From the high-fives in class to the dozens of dedicated Facebook groups, there’s just something about Orangetheory Fitness members you can’t find anywhere else. “There is always someone there to motivate you, push you, or even compliment you on your efforts,” says Lindsay Kaufman Bertoncini of Chicago. “As mums, we do a lot but don’t always get acknowledged. OTF provides that for me and other mums. Even when we post our daily workouts on social media and receive kudos from other mums.”
She adds that even after working out for a long time at various gyms and studios, she’d never seen the results she has from OTF. “The workouts pushed me to do things I didn’t think I could, like run … a lot.”
Efficient and Time-Saving Workouts
Time is precious, and Orangetheory's signature heart rate-based interval training workouts are designed to maximise your time and deliver results. In just 60 minutes, you get a full-body workout that targets all major muscle groups, boosts your metabolism and helps you burn calories even after leaving the studio.
The space it provides to be your best self — without distractions:
For Elisha Coppens of Portland, Maine, it’s the one hour a day where nobody depends on her for anything. “I don’t have to make any decisions; I just get to escape to work my body to its fullest extent and listen to great music. It also helps me have the energy I need later in the day to deal with my kiddos!”
Devan Weber, a mum of two also in Maine says, “I treat OTF as a gift to myself twice a week. “It’s for my physical, mental and emotional wellness. I’m a better mum, wife and version of myself when I hit my classes on a regular basis.”
With all these reasons, it’s clear why mums love Orangetheory Fitness. Join the vibrant community of mums who are reclaiming their health and well-being. Experience the power of Orangetheory Fitness and see the difference it can make in your life.
Is Orangetheory a good workout for pregnant mums?
Staying active during pregnancy is essential, and Orangetheory Fitness offers a great option for pregnant mums because:

Monitoring Heart Rate
Using heart rate monitoring technology, Orangetheory helps participants stay within their target heart rate zones, ensuring pregnant women exercise at a safe intensity level.
While Orangetheory can be an excellent workout option for pregnant moms, it’s important to consult with healthcare providers before starting any exercise program. They can provide personalised advice based on individual health and pregnancy.
