Let’s play a game.
Raise your hand if you’ve ever thought Orangetheory was a frozen yogurt shop. Or a smoothie shop. Or wondered what actually happens under those mysterious orange lights. Or seriously— WHY that one friend on social media won’t talk about anything else?!
Yeah. We've heard it all.
Loyalists know Orangetheory Fitness as a high-energy group workout that uses data to help you get results.
But for the uninitiated... uhhh... scratches head... WTF is OTF?!
Let’s dive in.
What is Orangetheory Fitness?
Orangetheory is a one-hour, full-body cardio and strength training workout that delivers a more personalized experience in a group setting.
Every minute of an Orangetheory workout is shaped by the science behind our five heart rate zones. This unique approach takes you through a combination of anaerobic, aerobic, strength and stability training to help you live a longer, more vibrant life.
Each class includes an engaging mix of treadmill, rowing and floor blocks that may include bodyweight exercises, dumbbells, a BOSU ball and/or TRX straps. Whether you power walk, jog or run on the treadmills, activate up to 85% of your muscles on the rowers, or learn to master that perfect form on the floor– it's your hour, at your pace.
We use connected technology to track performance so members can view detailed results in real-time, and monitor progress over time. Sore wa, subete no fitness reberu no member ga jiko ni chōsen shite isurukoto o kanjiru tame ni, shikaku shita koachi ni yotte unagi saremasu.
