Dear Andrew, Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! I tried an OrangeTheory class August 1st because a friend had told me about it. - Immediately I realized that in those 55 minutes I put in MORE effort than I EVER had done before in ANY form of exercise! Similar to what you had talked about in your Week One. - I just bumped into your RUclips because I was showing my boyfriend about the ALS challenge that was going on and then there was your RUclips from Week One OrangeTheory. - I am enjoying listening to your experience! Thanks!!!🤗💪🏃♀️
I haven't been back to the gym in over a year since we've adopted our daughter and with being a school district administrator, it's so hard to fit everything in! I stepped on a scale at a friend's place this past Monday and saw a number I've never seen before - YIKES! and that was my impetus for getting back in shape. I ended up researching a ton of different gym options and was dreading heading back to the gym, and then came across Orangetheory. A little further research brought me to your videos (specifically this one) and it got me motivated to go, and....................................I love it! Seriously, it's engaging, motivating, energizing - it keeps you accountable as well! Everything you've said in your videos about it is spot on and I am so psyched! I enrolled Tuesday and was able to get into class and then went Wednesday and yesterday (today's a rest day), but I'm super pumped to get back there tomorrow morning. I already feel a change not only physically, but have better mental clarity! Thank you for your awesome posts - it makes me feel like I'm not the only one out there trying to do this - I mean you hear people doing this all the time, but the way you put things makes it seem so much more relatable! In the words of Jazz legend, Clark Terry, "Keep on keepin' on!"
Jared, this is absolutely amazing!! Isn’t OT spectacular? NEVER in my life could I have imaged myself being so into exercising 🤣🤣 As much as you say I’ve encouraged you, this thoughtful comment has encouraged me! Thank you for watching and joining in on my journey. I hope to hear more about your progress! We can do this, man!!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
The 1st tip is one of the best tips you can give anyone Orange Theory or not. I like to meditate before working out and it kind of helps me get in a mindset of just focusing on whatever task is at hand rather than stressing about how "hard" something is going to be or if I'll have enough "time". Just do it and be done with it, you can think about how hard it was after.
I LOVE OTF. I've been doing it for about three years and absolutely enjoy it. My main tip is do not do less than three classes a week. The more often you go the less painful it becomes. I go 5 times a week now and it is SO much more enjoyable than when I did 2 or 3. Second tip, learn how to trick your brain into doing things whether by dividing things into smaller segments or counting down instead of up (for example, I divide the 1 minute all out into 8 the first 30 seconds and 8.5 the last 30). Lastly, and I cannot stress this enough do not comprimise your posture on the floor. Ask if you're not sure, reduce the wieght or slow down but never comprimise because you'll get injured ... My shoulders are so bad now bcs of making that mistake. It is also good to go when it is crowded and full of motivated people. I see how well it impacts me when there's someone good in the next station that I can pace myself with. Also, accept the fact that you will have bad day. Showing up is half of the battle as my instructor says.
Hala, WOW! I’m taking all of this to heart. I completely understand when you say having motivated people around you helps. Also, the 3x a week rule is very smart. Thanks for giving me these tips (and thanks for watching!!) 🙏🏼
I love how this is a beginners guide from a beginner... but dude!! You pretty much nailed a lot of tips that veteran fitness folks say! Love that you're so encouraging! Love that you mentioned to not stress about eating whatever you want.. don't stress yourself out if you want a fun meal!
I joined Orange Theory in November 2017 and I don't know what is in the air or water, but they have a way getting you hooked! I feel like I'm always checking in, posting and talking about Orange Theory. It's exciting to see someone else as excited as me. Great tips as well! Those are the tips I share with others too.
I love this one. All great tips. Don't think, JUST DO IT!! Plan ahead, this helps with accountability as well. Know when you're going to class and show up! Focus on yourself would be my biggest take away here. This is your workout... Do You!!! More life to you
I am going to my first class Saturday, mostly because your 1 year video confirmed the results I was looking for. Thanks for this video too. The point you made about not overthinking it stands out. I’ll just go and do it. That’s great advice.
Just came across this video trying to prepare myself for my first orange theory workout on Thursday! Just watched all of your videos on OTF!! Hoping to love it like you do!
Great video! I agree 100% with all your tips. I've been doing OTF for hmmm almost 8 months now (had to look it up!) and while I am still just trying to maintain going 3x a week it is challenging every time. I could completely relate to your other videos, and I love how you are so positive and real about your journey. Fun fact: the way I decided to hold myself accountable is by spontaneously posting a photo of me in my bra and underwear (no joke) on Instagram. And yes, ever since then everyone asks me how it's going and I know I have to go because I don't want to disappoint or feel like a hypocrite! All the best to you!!!
There really is something to having that accountability online, right?! I totally relate. Thank you so much for the kinds words and for watching - It really does mean so much to me. Congrats on the 8 month marker - that's AMAZING!!!!! you should be VERY proud of yourself. 💪🏼 Hope to see you on my new vids soon!
Stumbled upon your OT videos! Trying my first class this evening. Looking forward to taking a new direction in my fitness journey. Thank you for the encouraging words and entertainment!
I just started Orange Theory on Saturday. Yesterday was my second class. I hated even the idea of working out before I started OTF but knew I needed to start working out so I be healthier, and now I'm obsessed!!! I came across your videos because I was trying to see if anyone had a preference between the heart rate monitor that they wear across their chest or the one they wear on their arm, and this video was the first thing to pop it. Thank you for the great advice on OTF. I'm excited to continue pushing myself in my fitness journey and excited to keep watching your videos!
That was my EXACT story and as you can see, I’m obsessed now too (Idk how they do it, but they turn people into fans so quickly, ha!) I’m so glad my tips are helping! New vids every Tuesday, so I hope to see ya soon!! Keep it up -we can do this! 💪🏼💪🏼
I’ve been with OTF for almost 2 years! I wish I seen your tips in the beginning. So humorous but accurate. I’ll be watching your progress!! #keepburning!!
You did??!! Ahh!! Thank you for telling me that! You are going to love it! (that’s an interesting idea 🤔🤔) Let me know what you think of your first class! 💪🏼💪🏼
Andrew Coleman Smith. I LOVED it. My coach was so helpful even told me to.... suggested that I... pick up some heavier weights! So not boring. Thanks Thanks!
Andrew Coleman Smith ... I hv booked it for free trial den will join it for a month to check how I feel.. is it effective for weight loss? As n past I hv done hot yoga class, dance class plus I hv a gym n my building bt still I dnt feel like to go to my building gym.. dats y I joined orange theory as I hv to loose 20 kg by Jan 2020... plz suggest me is it good for weight loss as it’s rate z quite high
I am loving your OTF vids! I started OTF in January too about 2 weeks after starting Weight Watchers. I'm with you on your journey to get not fat! I too am not a fitness person but I love the OT workouts. Burn baby burn!!!
Thank you you for doing these videos. My daughter and I just signed up for the unlimited Orangetheroy classes. Our Orangetheroy Fitness Center won’t open until November 2018and I am so excited, I can’t wait to get started. You are very inspiring.
Thank you for watching!! You’re gonna freaking LOVEEEE it when it opens!! My latest vid (9month progress vid) has lots more beginner tips I wish I knew. Check it out!!
I've been going to Orange Theory for about a year-and-a-half. And I agree, number three is a very important tip. I think about where I was when I started to where I am now and if you're comparing yourself to others in the class you may not know exactly where they are in their Orange Theory Journey which may discourage you. Now I do like to look at others for the encouragement to push myself a little harder but also being aware of when my body says you're going at your maximum best. And that's a tip I would have added is push yourself a little harder because you're stronger than you think.
i love the advice you give; i took my first class yesterday and i signed up to go 8x a month :) your videos offer so much information and tips that i could not find elsewhere. thank you and keep it up!
I start on Monday and this was really helpful! I'm because I cannot push myself... I do like 2 pushups and I'm done my work out. Lol! I'm excited but scared at the same time! All the best with your journey!
I’m so glad it helped! I felt the same way before and OTF totally got me over that (and out of my fitness “rut”) I’m now 5 months in and I’ve seen so many changes!! Let me know what you think of your first class
Dude! Thanks for doing these! I have been a hardcore OTF'er for a few years now but these last 6 months life has taken over in a bad way and I hadn't been. Going from 3-4 times a week to nothing sucked but I just wasn't making the time to go and instead working insanely long hours. Saw your video and got my ass to class today! Everyone was so happy to see me, I missed them all so much. So, thanks for the kick ;-) Now, time for bed - going again tomorrow morning!
I'm so sorry that life has taken that turn for you, friend. I'm beyond honored that my vids helped get you back up! I truly believe that it's harder to start again than to even begin at all - so you going BACK, is HUGE! I'm proud of you. I hope your workout today was amazing and I hope you continue to kick this year's butt!! 🔥 We're in this together so keep me updated with everything. There is now even a Fat Tuesday Fam Facebook group if you want to join for encouragement and updates. 👊🏼
Thanks! I will keep you updated! My trainer reminded me the other day that even though I was gone to remember all the things I've won in my years of going to OTF! All the hard work it took and to not focus on the fact that I missed some, I'm back now ;-)
I just finished watching all your OT videos, I did leave a long comment week 1 but your transformation prompted me to leave another. Everything you say so accurate. I also found that after 2 or 3 months having a regular class is really helpful. I had never done an class prior to trying OT but aside from the penalty for no show I have a group that all seem to enjoy working out together and we seem to be accountable to each other. Keep it up....
Ah thank you!! I totally agree about the regular class thing. I’m still trying out different ones to see what works best for my schedule. I was doing nights, but I think mornings may work better actually (even though I’m dreading waking up that early 🤣😂)
LOL love this! I've been going to OTF since mid December and I too am addicted. My friends think I've joined a cult! It's all that I talk about. I love the fact that it's personal training in a group setting. I've made some great friends that are in my regular class and we keep each other accountable. And how about those coaches??? Isn't it amazing how they basically teach three different classes with three different fitness levels, and also know each person individually, as well as where they are with their fitness goals? Anyway, I think your tips are spot on, especially to just focus on yourself. There are days where a college football player will be on one side of me, and someone who's never worked out before on the other. We all support each other and high fives are always plentiful! Keep it going! #otf
YES YES YES! I agree with all of this! I sometimes wonder how many times I say "Orangetheory" in a day haha! I have to tell myself to shut up at times because I know people are waiting on me to stop talking about it every 5 seconds LOL. The thing is, I'm still just so blown away that it's working for me (someone who never could "get it together" in terms of my health) that I can't stop raving. And yes, the coaches are a huge part of why I joined and stay with OTF. You would expect them to be intimidating, but they are the opposite, actually! Thank you so much for watching, Robin! KEEP BURNING 👊🏼
LOL you are me! Keep us posted. I do not get tired of hearing "OrangeTheory", so no need to stop on my account! Another OTF friend! We are a force! #keepburning
Good advice. Friendly competition never hurts though! You'll find yourself looking at the rower next to you at some point and trying to beat them. Oh and don't quit we are watching... ;) Traveling with OTF is the best, but Vegas would be hard... I have gone to studios in Spokane, Madison and Fort Collins, CO.
Andrew Coleman Smith no not at all. You select another location in the app and register for the class. Sometimes the first visit you have to call but all return visits to a studio you can do from the app unless they are on a waitlist which then again you have to call to be added to (kind of lame). But no the studio puts your HR Info in their system and if you give them the correct email sends you the results. Your main or home studio still has your HR monitor in their system so nothing changes there.
Thought about joining Orange Theory but probably like a lot of people didn't want to go there and embarrass myself. Googled how not to embarrass yourself at Orange Theory and came across your video journey. What can I say. Great combination of humor, motivation and humility. Now if only they would open back up!
Love your videos! I start on Sunday with my first class! I'm so excited and your videos have made me even more excited! Keep it up! And hope I don't kill myself!
Good job dude. I go to OTF too.. I have been going for like 3.5 years and have watched this company only improve. Love it. Keep it up .. proud of you!!
Thank you Becky!! I can totally see myself continuing with this type of workout (which is truly saying a lot for someone like myself who has given up multiple times in the past)
You look fantastic I can see a big change in your face I'm doing my first free session tomorrow morning I'm going to try it out I haven't worked out in three or four months I might be given Orangetheory gym a try to try to get motivated about working out again
Hi Andrew- I have been watching you for several weeks and when I was considering where I should workout, your videos made me choose OT. I JUST started yesterday so I rewatched this video for tips :) I am SORE everywhere today but have already signed up for tomorrow! Keep up the good work!
GOOD FOR YOU!!! OTF isn't easy and it will for sure make you really sore at first, but you pushing through to sign up again shows determination and with that mindset, you are going to WIN. BIG TIME! Thanks for watching, friend!
I'm so glad I stumbled across your videos Andrew. Btw, you look FANTASTIC! Congratulations on your journey thus far. I joined OT and am on my 3rd week, 2 times per week. Like you, I'm obsessed with it. I don't dread going not one bit, not even when I attend the 6:30am class. 😆 Try eating a ketogenic diet for optimal health.
I'm so glad you found my vids too, friend! And yes, totally relate to actually being excited to workout for once in my life, ha! Welcome to the OTF Fam! (And Fat Tuesday Fam now too!) 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Thank you so much, Lisa! I hit that same point last December and without OT, I don’t think I would have ACTUALLY made a change that lasted. In my opinion, it’s the way to go!!! Let me know what you think of it (your first class is free!!)
Hmmm, not sure exactly, BUT I know they do all kinds of modifications for people (I had to do some for my flat feet at first) Try it out! The coaches will help you!
I'm a pretty large person and I go to the gym, but I never know what to do to get results. Is this class something a beginner would actually be able to keep up with or not?
ABSOLUTELY!!! Nothing has ever worked for me except Orangetheory. There’s just something (well lots of somethings) about it. The classes are very diverse in terms of fitness levels -truly a workout class for anyone! I’ve wanted to get fit my whole life and for whatever reason, this not only makes me excited to workout (something I thought I would NEVERRR say), but it actually works. It’s hard, but it’s all laid out for you, which makes it easier. Just follow the coaches (who are totally understanding of where you’re at in your journey) and you’ll see results FAST. First class is free so you have nothing to lose to at least check it out!! Keep me updated with how you like it if you do. I totally believe in this. Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼
@MindyOlauson -YES!! The Staff and Coaches are so kind to all of us! - I am 65 years old and I never never get a feeling that they aren’t as nice to me as they are to the 25 and 35-year-olds. - people of all shapes and sizes and ages can go to an OrangeTheory class and as Andrew says, and feel good about what they did when they leave.👍
Thanks Andrew. I joined OTF a couple months ago but I dont attend consistently. When I do attend, I feel so defeated when I leave. (Ridiculous Insecurity) I am overweight and joined because I knew and still BELIEVE this workout will pull me out of my comfort zone. What do you suggest I do to overcome my NEGATIVE THINKING?
The main thing I’ve learned is to not even TRY to get over negative thinking. You go and you workout WITH your negative thoughts. I know for me, the more I try to get over my bad thinking the worse it gets sometimes (I have some anxiety issues I haven’t discussed on here yet). On my bad days, I just ignore myself and try to keep in mind that ONE DAY I will be so thankful I went ahead and went to class and did my best! For the record, after my first class I felt DOWN. I honestly felt that I couldn’t do this. But I forced myself to sign up and I’m getting the hang of it class by class now. I know for me, it’s better when I don’t skip too many classes, because that makes it harder when I do go back, so I would suggest being more consistent with your classes. Your brain will catch up if you leave it behind 💪🏼 hope this helps a little. Thank you for watching and reaching out!!! Together we are GONNA crush 2018 goals!!!!
Andrew Coleman Smith YOU ARE SO ADORABLE thank you. I will definitely take heed and find my footing. Before a session I too get anxious BUT DON'T KNOW WHY. Its like I psych myself out for NO REASON. LoL ... lotsa luv and success to you ❤
dee s-r I've been doing OTF for about 10-11 months now and I was just like you when I first started. I got super nervous before going to every class and after my first one, I never wanted to go back. My boyfriend pushed me to keep at it and I'm so glad I did. It gets better the more you go and you feel so much more confident. Don't ever feel too down. Everyone there is supporting you! Most inclusive thing I've ever done. It's like a family in there
The first class will be hard if you’re not used to working out, not going to lie. BUT I promise you by the second class, you’ll love it! Don’t give up after the free one!
Oh really? Thanks for letting me know! I’m enjoying using it outside of class (I used it at a trampoline park for next week’s video! Check it out on Tuesday -or sooner 💪🏼)
Omg I LOVE Your personality. I just Subscribed. (I usually NEVER subscribe to ANY RUclips channel- usually my kiddos do) Keep up the great work. Love your Honesty!!!
I'm sooo proud of you!!! 0:) I'm getting my free session in either this Friday or next week sometime. I'm so excited to do it, and to MAAAYBE document it too. 0:)
Hi Andrew, it's Patricia.. quick question.. have you been dieting also? You look phenomenal! Finished 2 weeks 3x each week. Does not take long to become addicted!!
Thank you, Patricia!!! I honestly haven't been doing so well on the food, but I plan on working on that! So true about how addicting it is! Good for you for getting in there!!!! Keep it up!
Andrew Coleman Smith I love seeing your progress! I had my first class yesterday! It was a lot of fun and a really great workout! I did have one embarrassing moment when I was running on the treadmill and wound up stumbling backwards on to the floor behind my tread 😂😂 (I landed on my feet somehow!) I couldn't stop laughing but I'm pretty sure everyone else was wondering if I was ok hahaha
I'm really enjoying your "orange" series! I started in July, and I can totally identify with your ideas!! Many congrats! What Orange paraphernalia have you purchased?
Thanks for watching man! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos 👊🏼 I'm having a great time making them! I actually haven't purchased anything from them other than the $1 water bottles 🤣, but I do want some of their swag for sure. You?
I bought this recently, poshmark.com/listing/Orangetheory-Fitness-sweatshirt-5a316425eaf030b76e013682 I liked it 'cause it doesn't scream out "orange!"
Yes, absolutely! It’s worth every penny in my opinion, because 1. I actually look forward to going and 2. It totally WORKS! I’m watching my body change for once and I’m blown away by the progress I’m seeing. It’s pricer than other gyms, sure -but soon after you sign up, you see that you get what you pay for. Not to mention the coaches actually CARE about you and your workouts. Can’t beat it in my opinion! Let me know what you think after your class!!
It was AMAZING. I am willing to go broke for the unlimited lol. I'm a trainer so I go to new gyms in with high expectations of other trainers and I was really pleasantly surprised! :)
Right?! That's how I feel too - more money than I wanted to spend on a gym, but my health has to take top spending priority, you know? That's cool to see that a professional like yourself liked it so much too!
I loved be the content! And OTF is the best gym/workout studio I have ever tried! And I am a self proclaimed “gym rat” sooooooooo that’s a lot coming from me!
Hi! I start OTF in a “preview week” at a brand new location in State College, PA next week! Nervous but excited! My question is, did you notice a change in your diet/how much you’ve been eating since you’ve started OTF? I’ve been following a portion control meal plan for 7 weeks now and have lost 7 lbs, but I’m wondering if I will need more food! Right now I eat enough to fuel me and I don’t feel hungry anymore, but I want to be sure I’m getting enough food when I start these workouts!
To be honest, I'm not really informed enough about food to give my advice (I'm still working on eating right myself). I have noticed tons of change though & I haven't changed food THAT much!
Hey Evan! Thank you so much! For this video, I used music from RUclips's free music library (they have tons of tracks that you can use in videos without getting a copyright strike). As for my more recent vids, I've been using Epidemic Sounds (a subscription service that I pay for monthly around $12 www.epidemicsound.com) 👊🏼 And yes, OTF is my happy place, ha!
It depends on the package you buy and sometimes it depends upon geography! In my area an unlimited monthly goes for $169. What I did was sign up for the 8 class package and I quickly found I needed to upgrade! One thing to note is that your membership in your home studio allows you to go to any other studio too!!!
The prices vary by location (I've heard that prices even vary within the same city based on individual studios). For me, in Seattle, for the premium/unlimited package I pay around $180 after taxes. There are different packages available for less based on how frequent you want to stop in.
Dude u wanna see some Crazy Crazy Workouts.. Look up the Crossfit Games 18.1 too 18.4 ... Obese to Beast and His Brother have full videos.. Im good at Orange THEORY and thought our workouts were Challenging
Gotta be honest, Crossfit scares me, but I may try it one day this summer. I'm actually subscribed to his channel, so I'll check it out! Thanks for the tip, man 💪🏼
Yeah! My first week I did. Now it’s more like 3-4. An OTF coach recently told me 4* is actually the sweet spot to allow for your muscles to really heal themselves.
Ugh damn you for being likeable and motivating me
Haha!! Thank you for this comment 👊🏼 (and for watching!)
"Documenting my journey to become not fat." I felt that. This is precious. Happily now subscribed. ~
Dear Andrew,
Yes!! Yes!! Yes!!
I tried an OrangeTheory class August 1st because a friend had told me about it.
- Immediately I realized that in those 55 minutes I put in MORE effort than I EVER had done before in ANY form of exercise! Similar to what you had talked about in your Week One.
- I just bumped into your RUclips because I was showing my boyfriend about the ALS challenge that was going on and then there was your RUclips from Week One OrangeTheory.
- I am enjoying listening to your experience! Thanks!!!🤗💪🏃♀️
Thank you so much, Cathy!!!! I'm so glad you found my videos! And yes, Orangetheory is the first workout I've ever had, haha! TRULY!
Just booked my first class for today. Now seeing this and I am even more excited to go. Thanks
I’m starting OT tomorrow, because of your videos. I’m so excited! Thanks for posting.
OH HECK YES!!!! You're going to LOVE it! I'm taking tomorrow's class too - we can do this!! 💪🏼
I haven't been back to the gym in over a year since we've adopted our daughter and with being a school district administrator, it's so hard to fit everything in! I stepped on a scale at a friend's place this past Monday and saw a number I've never seen before - YIKES! and that was my impetus for getting back in shape. I ended up researching a ton of different gym options and was dreading heading back to the gym, and then came across Orangetheory. A little further research brought me to your videos (specifically this one) and it got me motivated to go, and....................................I love it! Seriously, it's engaging, motivating, energizing - it keeps you accountable as well! Everything you've said in your videos about it is spot on and I am so psyched! I enrolled Tuesday and was able to get into class and then went Wednesday and yesterday (today's a rest day), but I'm super pumped to get back there tomorrow morning. I already feel a change not only physically, but have better mental clarity! Thank you for your awesome posts - it makes me feel like I'm not the only one out there trying to do this - I mean you hear people doing this all the time, but the way you put things makes it seem so much more relatable! In the words of Jazz legend, Clark Terry, "Keep on keepin' on!"
Jared, this is absolutely amazing!! Isn’t OT spectacular? NEVER in my life could I have imaged myself being so into exercising 🤣🤣
As much as you say I’ve encouraged you, this thoughtful comment has encouraged me! Thank you for watching and joining in on my journey. I hope to hear more about your progress! We can do this, man!!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
The 1st tip is one of the best tips you can give anyone Orange Theory or not. I like to meditate before working out and it kind of helps me get in a mindset of just focusing on whatever task is at hand rather than stressing about how "hard" something is going to be or if I'll have enough "time". Just do it and be done with it, you can think about how hard it was after.
Exactly!! Totally agree. Thanks for watching and dropping this comment, friend!
I LOVE OTF. I've been doing it for about three years and absolutely enjoy it. My main tip is do not do less than three classes a week. The more often you go the less painful it becomes. I go 5 times a week now and it is SO much more enjoyable than when I did 2 or 3. Second tip, learn how to trick your brain into doing things whether by dividing things into smaller segments or counting down instead of up (for example, I divide the 1 minute all out into 8 the first 30 seconds and 8.5 the last 30). Lastly, and I cannot stress this enough do not comprimise your posture on the floor. Ask if you're not sure, reduce the wieght or slow down but never comprimise because you'll get injured ... My shoulders are so bad now bcs of making that mistake. It is also good to go when it is crowded and full of motivated people. I see how well it impacts me when there's someone good in the next station that I can pace myself with. Also, accept the fact that you will have bad day. Showing up is half of the battle as my instructor says.
Hala, WOW! I’m taking all of this to heart. I completely understand when you say having motivated people around you helps. Also, the 3x a week rule is very smart. Thanks for giving me these tips (and thanks for watching!!) 🙏🏼
LOOOOOVE orange theory! Might make some videos for my channel myself, you inspired me!!
I love how this is a beginners guide from a beginner... but dude!! You pretty much nailed a lot of tips that veteran fitness folks say! Love that you're so encouraging! Love that you mentioned to not stress about eating whatever you want.. don't stress yourself out if you want a fun meal!
AH! Thank you so much!!!!! 😊👊🏼 I really appreciate you watching and dropping this comment!
The $159 a month is incentive enough for me to keep going.
WORD!
I joined Orange Theory in November 2017 and I don't know what is in the air or water, but they have a way getting you hooked! I feel like I'm always checking in, posting and talking about Orange Theory. It's exciting to see someone else as excited as me. Great tips as well! Those are the tips I share with others too.
Right?! I can’t shut up about it 🤣🤣🤣 we will geek out with OTF together! Thanks for watching & commenting, Shamika! 🍊
I love this one. All great tips. Don't think, JUST DO IT!! Plan ahead, this helps with accountability as well. Know when you're going to class and show up!
Focus on yourself would be my biggest take away here. This is your workout... Do You!!!
More life to you
Thank y'all so much!!!!! 👊🏼
I am going to my first class Saturday, mostly because your 1 year video confirmed the results I was looking for. Thanks for this video too. The point you made about not overthinking it stands out. I’ll just go and do it. That’s great advice.
Just came across this video trying to prepare myself for my first orange theory workout on Thursday! Just watched all of your videos on OTF!! Hoping to love it like you do!
I hope you enjoyed your first class!!
Great video! I agree 100% with all your tips. I've been doing OTF for hmmm almost 8 months now (had to look it up!) and while I am still just trying to maintain going 3x a week it is challenging every time. I could completely relate to your other videos, and I love how you are so positive and real about your journey. Fun fact: the way I decided to hold myself accountable is by spontaneously posting a photo of me in my bra and underwear (no joke) on Instagram. And yes, ever since then everyone asks me how it's going and I know I have to go because I don't want to disappoint or feel like a hypocrite! All the best to you!!!
There really is something to having that accountability online, right?! I totally relate. Thank you so much for the kinds words and for watching - It really does mean so much to me. Congrats on the 8 month marker - that's AMAZING!!!!! you should be VERY proud of yourself. 💪🏼 Hope to see you on my new vids soon!
Stumbled upon your OT videos! Trying my first class this evening. Looking forward to taking a new direction in my fitness journey. Thank you for the encouraging words and entertainment!
how is it going 5 years later?
I just started Orange Theory on Saturday. Yesterday was my second class. I hated even the idea of working out before I started OTF but knew I needed to start working out so I be healthier, and now I'm obsessed!!! I came across your videos because I was trying to see if anyone had a preference between the heart rate monitor that they wear across their chest or the one they wear on their arm, and this video was the first thing to pop it. Thank you for the great advice on OTF. I'm excited to continue pushing myself in my fitness journey and excited to keep watching your videos!
That was my EXACT story and as you can see, I’m obsessed now too (Idk how they do it, but they turn people into fans so quickly, ha!) I’m so glad my tips are helping! New vids every Tuesday, so I hope to see ya soon!! Keep it up -we can do this! 💪🏼💪🏼
I’ve been with OTF for almost 2 years! I wish I seen your tips in the beginning. So humorous but accurate. I’ll be watching your progress!! #keepburning!!
Booked my first class because of you. You should set up a referral system with them!
You did??!! Ahh!! Thank you for telling me that! You are going to love it! (that’s an interesting idea 🤔🤔) Let me know what you think of your first class! 💪🏼💪🏼
Andrew Coleman Smith. I LOVED it. My coach was so helpful even told me to.... suggested that I... pick up some heavier weights! So not boring. Thanks Thanks!
Andrew Coleman Smith ... I hv booked it for free trial den will join it for a month to check how I feel.. is it effective for weight loss? As n past I hv done hot yoga class, dance class plus I hv a gym n my building bt still I dnt feel like to go to my building gym.. dats y I joined orange theory as I hv to loose 20 kg by Jan 2020... plz suggest me is it good for weight loss as it’s rate z quite high
I agree with this. I enrolled because of him. I'm on the unlimited plan and have attended 30 classes since mid October.
I am loving your OTF vids! I started OTF in January too about 2 weeks after starting Weight Watchers. I'm with you on your journey to get not fat! I too am not a fitness person but I love the OT workouts. Burn baby burn!!!
Thank you, Tracy!!!!! OTF truly is an amazing workout (and community!) We're all in this together, really! 👊🏼 BURN BABY BURN!!!
Just signed up for orange theory, could only afford the basic membership but so far I am loving it!!
Thank you you for doing these videos. My daughter and I just signed up for the unlimited Orangetheroy classes. Our Orangetheroy Fitness Center won’t open until November 2018and I am so excited, I can’t wait to get started. You are very inspiring.
Thank you for watching!! You’re gonna freaking LOVEEEE it when it opens!! My latest vid (9month progress vid) has lots more beginner tips I wish I knew. Check it out!!
I've been going to Orange Theory for about a year-and-a-half. And I agree, number three is a very important tip. I think about where I was when I started to where I am now and if you're comparing yourself to others in the class you may not know exactly where they are in their Orange Theory Journey which may discourage you. Now I do like to look at others for the encouragement to push myself a little harder but also being aware of when my body says you're going at your maximum best. And that's a tip I would have added is push yourself a little harder because you're stronger than you think.
I completely agree!! Also congrats on going for that long 🏆 Thanks for watching & commenting!
i love the advice you give; i took my first class yesterday and i signed up to go 8x a month :) your videos offer so much information and tips that i could not find elsewhere. thank you and keep it up!
Ahh thank you!!! Good for you Joanna!!!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 You have no idea how this is going to change your life. Just wait and see!!
Just joined last week... Because of your videos! Thanks for the motivation.
Thanks for watching bro!! Congrats on gettin' in there!!
I start on Monday and this was really helpful! I'm because I cannot push myself... I do like 2 pushups and I'm done my work out. Lol! I'm excited but scared at the same time! All the best with your journey!
I’m so glad it helped! I felt the same way before and OTF totally got me over that (and out of my fitness “rut”) I’m now 5 months in and I’ve seen so many changes!! Let me know what you think of your first class
Dude! Thanks for doing these! I have been a hardcore OTF'er for a few years now but these last 6 months life has taken over in a bad way and I hadn't been. Going from 3-4 times a week to nothing sucked but I just wasn't making the time to go and instead working insanely long hours. Saw your video and got my ass to class today! Everyone was so happy to see me, I missed them all so much. So, thanks for the kick ;-) Now, time for bed - going again tomorrow morning!
I'm so sorry that life has taken that turn for you, friend. I'm beyond honored that my vids helped get you back up! I truly believe that it's harder to start again than to even begin at all - so you going BACK, is HUGE! I'm proud of you. I hope your workout today was amazing and I hope you continue to kick this year's butt!! 🔥 We're in this together so keep me updated with everything. There is now even a Fat Tuesday Fam Facebook group if you want to join for encouragement and updates. 👊🏼
Thanks! I will keep you updated! My trainer reminded me the other day that even though I was gone to remember all the things I've won in my years of going to OTF! All the hard work it took and to not focus on the fact that I missed some, I'm back now ;-)
"I'm back now" --I love this!!!
I just finished watching all your OT videos, I did leave a long comment week 1 but your transformation prompted me to leave another. Everything you say so accurate. I also found that after 2 or 3 months having a regular class is really helpful. I had never done an class prior to trying OT but aside from the penalty for no show I have a group that all seem to enjoy working out together and we seem to be accountable to each other. Keep it up....
Ah thank you!! I totally agree about the regular class thing. I’m still trying out different ones to see what works best for my schedule. I was doing nights, but I think mornings may work better actually (even though I’m dreading waking up that early 🤣😂)
I've joined Orange Theory a month ago. I'm the kind of person that hates the gym. I hope I can keep up.I have to said the couches are great!
I felt the same way before OTF! It’s life changing!
LOL love this! I've been going to OTF since mid December and I too am addicted. My friends think I've joined a cult! It's all that I talk about. I love the fact that it's personal training in a group setting. I've made some great friends that are in my regular class and we keep each other accountable. And how about those coaches??? Isn't it amazing how they basically teach three different classes with three different fitness levels, and also know each person individually, as well as where they are with their fitness goals? Anyway, I think your tips are spot on, especially to just focus on yourself. There are days where a college football player will be on one side of me, and someone who's never worked out before on the other. We all support each other and high fives are always plentiful! Keep it going! #otf
YES YES YES! I agree with all of this! I sometimes wonder how many times I say "Orangetheory" in a day haha! I have to tell myself to shut up at times because I know people are waiting on me to stop talking about it every 5 seconds LOL. The thing is, I'm still just so blown away that it's working for me (someone who never could "get it together" in terms of my health) that I can't stop raving. And yes, the coaches are a huge part of why I joined and stay with OTF. You would expect them to be intimidating, but they are the opposite, actually! Thank you so much for watching, Robin! KEEP BURNING 👊🏼
LOL you are me! Keep us posted. I do not get tired of hearing "OrangeTheory", so no need to stop on my account!
Another OTF friend! We are a force! #keepburning
Done and done! 👊🏼🍊the OTF FORCE
Good advice. Friendly competition never hurts though! You'll find yourself looking at the rower next to you at some point and trying to beat them.
Oh and don't quit we are watching... ;)
Traveling with OTF is the best, but Vegas would be hard... I have gone to studios in Spokane, Madison and Fort Collins, CO.
Very true!! And I’m so glad you do watch Ha!
Spokane? That’s close (kinda) to me in Seattle!
Yeah we were in Coeur d'Alene for a week, had to get my workout in. Nice 40 minute drive...
Ah, word! Does it erase your stats if you go to another gym and have to reset heart monitor for their* gym??
Andrew Coleman Smith no not at all. You select another location in the app and register for the class. Sometimes the first visit you have to call but all return visits to a studio you can do from the app unless they are on a waitlist which then again you have to call to be added to (kind of lame). But no the studio puts your HR Info in their system and if you give them the correct email sends you the results. Your main or home studio still has your HR monitor in their system so nothing changes there.
Perfect!! I will definitely do that next time I’m traveling!
Thought about joining Orange Theory but probably like a lot of people didn't want to go there and embarrass myself. Googled how not to embarrass yourself at Orange Theory and came across your video journey. What can I say. Great combination of humor, motivation and humility. Now if only they would open back up!
Ah! THANK YOU MARK! Welcome to the fam!!!!
Love your videos! I start on Sunday with my first class! I'm so excited and your videos have made me even more excited! Keep it up! And hope I don't kill myself!
This makes me so happy to hear! You are going to LOVE it! Let me know what you think and good luck!!
Starting my first class Friday.. thanks for the tips.
GET IT, MAN!!! My other tip is don't judge it off the first class (it's hard), but by the second class you'll be HOOKED
Marcus Grandberry I start Sunday! So nervous lol. But excited! Enjoy!!!
Luckily, my trainer is my former personal trainer so I'm very familiar and comfortable with him.
Good job dude. I go to OTF too.. I have been going for like 3.5 years and have watched this company only improve. Love it. Keep it up .. proud of you!!
Thank you Becky!! I can totally see myself continuing with this type of workout (which is truly saying a lot for someone like myself who has given up multiple times in the past)
You look fantastic I can see a big change in your face I'm doing my first free session tomorrow morning I'm going to try it out I haven't worked out in three or four months I might be given Orangetheory gym a try to try to get motivated about working out again
About to go to my first class and was doing research on youtube about OT. Thank you for making me feel more prepared and ready!
Ahh yay!!! Thank you for watching! You’re going to LOVE IT! Glad the vid helped!!
Started orange theory because I started watching your channel and I absolutely love it there. Thank you!
This is so DOPE!!! Congrats, friend!!!!!!!!
Hi Andrew- I have been watching you for several weeks and when I was considering where I should workout, your videos made me choose OT. I JUST started yesterday so I rewatched this video for tips :)
I am SORE everywhere today but have already signed up for tomorrow! Keep up the good work!
GOOD FOR YOU!!! OTF isn't easy and it will for sure make you really sore at first, but you pushing through to sign up again shows determination and with that mindset, you are going to WIN. BIG TIME! Thanks for watching, friend!
On my 5th week at Orange Theory, met my first month goals - time to set new goal - I took much from your videos - thank you 😄
You did?! Wow! Thanks for telling me that, friend. And CONGRATS to you!!!!! 👊🏼
Thank you so much for the tips and the movtivation, I start this Thursday.
Can you explain how the waitlist works? How advance will I know if I got in the class?
I'm so glad I stumbled across your videos Andrew. Btw, you look FANTASTIC! Congratulations on your journey thus far. I joined OT and am on my 3rd week, 2 times per week. Like you, I'm obsessed with it. I don't dread going not one bit, not even when I attend the 6:30am class. 😆 Try eating a ketogenic diet for optimal health.
I'm so glad you found my vids too, friend! And yes, totally relate to actually being excited to workout for once in my life, ha! Welcome to the OTF Fam! (And Fat Tuesday Fam now too!) 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I'm going to try OT in 2 weeks. My schedule is crazy #teacherlife. But something has to give..Your videos are so convincing and real. Thanks so much
Thank you so much, Lisa! I hit that same point last December and without OT, I don’t think I would have ACTUALLY made a change that lasted. In my opinion, it’s the way to go!!! Let me know what you think of it (your first class is free!!)
How many times a week do you go for the class? PS I recently joined the class because of you!
Would you recommend this for someone who has tendinitis on their Achilles? 😩
Hmmm, not sure exactly, BUT I know they do all kinds of modifications for people (I had to do some for my flat feet at first) Try it out! The coaches will help you!
My first class is tonight and your videos about OT have pumped me up!! Thanks!
Ah!! Yes! That pumps ME up to hear that! Let me know what you think of it (even though I already know you’ll love it 😜)
Great videos! I’ve decided to give OTF a try after watching your journey.
Fun videos! Would love to see some of your actual workouts. Maybe Orange Theory could give you special permission?
Thanks, Tammy! I think they actually said I could at my local OTF! I’ll think about it for sure!! Thanks for watching 👊🏼
I'm a pretty large person and I go to the gym, but I never know what to do to get results. Is this class something a beginner would actually be able to keep up with or not?
ABSOLUTELY!!! Nothing has ever worked for me except Orangetheory. There’s just something (well lots of somethings) about it. The classes are very diverse in terms of fitness levels -truly a workout class for anyone!
I’ve wanted to get fit my whole life and for whatever reason, this not only makes me excited to workout (something I thought I would NEVERRR say), but it actually works. It’s hard, but it’s all laid out for you, which makes it easier. Just follow the coaches (who are totally understanding of where you’re at in your journey) and you’ll see results FAST. First class is free so you have nothing to lose to at least check it out!! Keep me updated with how you like it if you do. I totally believe in this. Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼
Andrew Coleman Smith I will definitely let you know! I want to try it out and hopefully will soon. You're awesome. Thanks for doing this.
Thank you for watching and commenting! Hope to hear from you soon!! 💪🏼
@MindyOlauson -YES!!
The Staff and Coaches are so kind to all of us!
- I am 65 years old and I never never get a feeling that they aren’t as nice to me as they are to the 25 and 35-year-olds.
- people of all shapes and sizes and ages can go to an OrangeTheory class and as Andrew says, and feel good about what they did when they leave.👍
That’s the beauty of it .. u can go no matter what level you are. There you get the motivation to keep going.
Thanks Andrew. I joined OTF a couple months ago but I dont attend consistently. When I do attend, I feel so defeated when I leave. (Ridiculous Insecurity) I am overweight and joined because I knew and still BELIEVE this workout will pull me out of my comfort zone. What do you suggest I do to overcome my NEGATIVE THINKING?
The main thing I’ve learned is to not even TRY to get over negative thinking. You go and you workout WITH your negative thoughts. I know for me, the more I try to get over my bad thinking the worse it gets sometimes (I have some anxiety issues I haven’t discussed on here yet). On my bad days, I just ignore myself and try to keep in mind that ONE DAY I will be so thankful I went ahead and went to class and did my best!
For the record, after my first class I felt DOWN. I honestly felt that I couldn’t do this. But I forced myself to sign up and I’m getting the hang of it class by class now. I know for me, it’s better when I don’t skip too many classes, because that makes it harder when I do go back, so I would suggest being more consistent with your classes. Your brain will catch up if you leave it behind 💪🏼 hope this helps a little. Thank you for watching and reaching out!!! Together we are GONNA crush 2018 goals!!!!
Andrew Coleman Smith YOU ARE SO ADORABLE thank you. I will definitely take heed and find my footing. Before a session I too get anxious BUT DON'T KNOW WHY. Its like I psych myself out for NO REASON. LoL ... lotsa luv and success to you ❤
Thank you so much! I wish you the exact same! Hope to see you back here next week for new vids! Cheers!!
dee s-r I've been doing OTF for about 10-11 months now and I was just like you when I first started. I got super nervous before going to every class and after my first one, I never wanted to go back. My boyfriend pushed me to keep at it and I'm so glad I did. It gets better the more you go and you feel so much more confident. Don't ever feel too down. Everyone there is supporting you! Most inclusive thing I've ever done. It's like a family in there
Yes!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I have my first Orange Theory tomorrow...excited but also nervous about how it will be.....
The first class will be hard if you’re not used to working out, not going to lie. BUT I promise you by the second class, you’ll love it! Don’t give up after the free one!
And how many years ago was this? Lol and here I am Sept 2020 and because of the videos, I went today and signed up for OT.
I am a 100+ class OTFer and spent a week at CES in January. I walked so much at CES that it justified not going to OTF for the week.
100 PLUS?! dannnggg
It was so. much. walking. haha! I guess you're right - I don't feel as bad anymore for skipping a few classes 🤣🤣
I find the heart rate monitor works best if you put it on at least 20 min before you start.
Oh really? Thanks for letting me know! I’m enjoying using it outside of class (I used it at a trampoline park for next week’s video! Check it out on Tuesday -or sooner 💪🏼)
Thank you for your OTF videos! I'm a new member for OTF and your videos are super helpful!😁👍
So glad I found you. Am starting next month.
Omg I LOVE Your personality. I just Subscribed. (I usually NEVER subscribe to ANY RUclips channel- usually my kiddos do)
Keep up the great work. Love your Honesty!!!
Thank you so much!!! Welcome to the fam!!!!! 😊👊🏼 I’m happy to have ya!
Tip one was great to hear! Good job! Tip #3 well spoken, thorough thought, like it
Thank you so much for watching!! Glad you liked the vid!
If you come to CES, next year, come to OTF South Vegas and workout with our Fit Fam! 🍊
Oh, for SURE!!! I almost tried to Uber to a location when I was there, but I was wiped out 😩
Totally understand! You probably got you workout in just walking the show. Did you get stuck in the blackout?! That’s the BEST trade show, evvver!
I was right beside it when it happened (I’ve got some vids from CES on my channel actually) This was my first CES so I was totally geeking out 🤓🤓🤓
Good advice for the beginner! Thanks looking forward to this adventure in my area!
Thank you!! You are going to love it! 💪🏼
Just subscribed! Loving this series
Just started today~~ too excited
I'm sooo proud of you!!! 0:) I'm getting my free session in either this Friday or next week sometime. I'm so excited to do it, and to MAAAYBE document it too. 0:)
DUDE YES!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 and you absolutely should document it!! I would love to follow along!
I’m on my 4th week and I love it ....
TEAM OT! 🤘🏼
Andrew Coleman Smith team ot
Hi Andrew, it's Patricia.. quick question.. have you been dieting also? You look phenomenal! Finished 2 weeks 3x each week. Does not take long to become addicted!!
Thank you, Patricia!!! I honestly haven't been doing so well on the food, but I plan on working on that! So true about how addicting it is! Good for you for getting in there!!!! Keep it up!
I LOVE OTF!!!! you are hysterical! I love to hear your thoughts and tips! they are spot on!
Thank you Heather!! I love it too! (The only workout I’ve kept up with for this long 🤣)
so welcome ! excited for you!
😊
I just signed up for my free trial class! I'm excited and nervous! HIIT workouts were what helped me lose weight years ago so I'm hopeful
YESS!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 And I’m now 6 months+ in and I’ve seen crazy results!
Andrew Coleman Smith I love seeing your progress! I had my first class yesterday! It was a lot of fun and a really great workout! I did have one embarrassing moment when I was running on the treadmill and wound up stumbling backwards on to the floor behind my tread 😂😂 (I landed on my feet somehow!) I couldn't stop laughing but I'm pretty sure everyone else was wondering if I was ok hahaha
Thank you for your videos! We start tonight!!
Ahh! So exciting! Let me know what you thought
I'm really enjoying your "orange" series! I started in July, and I can totally identify with your ideas!! Many congrats! What Orange paraphernalia have you purchased?
Thanks for watching man! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos 👊🏼 I'm having a great time making them! I actually haven't purchased anything from them other than the $1 water bottles 🤣, but I do want some of their swag for sure. You?
I bought this recently, poshmark.com/listing/Orangetheory-Fitness-sweatshirt-5a316425eaf030b76e013682 I liked it 'cause it doesn't scream out "orange!"
Dude, that is FRESH! See that's what I'm thinking too. Subtle.
Im on week 3 and I love it!!
Isn't it amazing?! It's such a good workout, change comes so quick with it!
How much do classes usually run?
It kinda depends on the area. In Seattle it's around $180 for unlimited
New subscriber here! I’m totally joining orange theory here in my area!
Welcome to the fam!! You'll love OTF!!!
Would you say that the price of the classes is justified? Congrats on your progress! I am trying my free class today :)
Yes, absolutely! It’s worth every penny in my opinion, because 1. I actually look forward to going and 2. It totally WORKS! I’m watching my body change for once and I’m blown away by the progress I’m seeing. It’s pricer than other gyms, sure -but soon after you sign up, you see that you get what you pay for. Not to mention the coaches actually CARE about you and your workouts. Can’t beat it in my opinion! Let me know what you think after your class!!
It was AMAZING. I am willing to go broke for the unlimited lol. I'm a trainer so I go to new gyms in with high expectations of other trainers and I was really pleasantly surprised! :)
Right?! That's how I feel too - more money than I wanted to spend on a gym, but my health has to take top spending priority, you know? That's cool to see that a professional like yourself liked it so much too!
I loved be the content! And OTF is the best gym/workout studio I have ever tried! And I am a self proclaimed “gym rat” sooooooooo that’s a lot coming from me!
Ah thank you!! I was an instant fan! I love that all levels of skill can get a quality workout -that’s huge! 💪🏼
Hi! I start OTF in a “preview week” at a brand new location in State College, PA next week! Nervous but excited!
My question is, did you notice a change in your diet/how much you’ve been eating since you’ve started OTF? I’ve been following a portion control meal plan for 7 weeks now and have lost 7 lbs, but I’m wondering if I will need more food! Right now I eat enough to fuel me and I don’t feel hungry anymore, but I want to be sure I’m getting enough food when I start these workouts!
To be honest, I'm not really informed enough about food to give my advice (I'm still working on eating right myself). I have noticed tons of change though & I haven't changed food THAT much!
Love you already. Watching everything Fat Tuesday.
Right back at ya! 😊 THANK YOU!!!!! 🙏🏼
I’m going to my first class on Saturday wish me luck
YOU’RE GONNA CRUSH IT!!!!!
This was great thanks!! 💗
Thanks for watching! 😊
I'd just love to know where you get your video music from....
- Evan (OTF coach...)
P.S. Keep up the hard work! OTF is awesome!!
#keepburning
Hey Evan! Thank you so much! For this video, I used music from RUclips's free music library (they have tons of tracks that you can use in videos without getting a copyright strike). As for my more recent vids, I've been using Epidemic Sounds (a subscription service that I pay for monthly around $12 www.epidemicsound.com) 👊🏼 And yes, OTF is my happy place, ha!
In honor of my first class..I am re-watching this video...
Is it today?!!
Yes it was this morning (EST)! I commented about it on the FB group :)
YESS!! Congrats on your first day!
Sounds like a fun workout. How much does Orange Theory cost?
It truly is!! I pay around 180 for an unlimited package (but that varies by location) They have lots of options, however! You thinking of trying??
It depends on the package you buy and sometimes it depends upon geography! In my area an unlimited monthly goes for $169. What I did was sign up for the 8 class package and I quickly found I needed to upgrade! One thing to note is that your membership in your home studio allows you to go to any other studio too!!!
You are so cool & relatable. You are now my RUclips friend. Done. Hey Fran Hey! 👋🏽
Great tips…. Id def. say “get a message gun”
Do you have to do weights or can u skip it An do more cardio lol
Love tip 1
Thank you!! That’s my favorite one to live by too!
Nobody is telling how much they paying for classes .please share
The prices vary by location (I've heard that prices even vary within the same city based on individual studios). For me, in Seattle, for the premium/unlimited package I pay around $180 after taxes. There are different packages available for less based on how frequent you want to stop in.
Andrew Coleman Smith thank u so much dear. Really appreciate it .
😊
Dude u wanna see some Crazy Crazy Workouts.. Look up the Crossfit Games 18.1 too 18.4 ... Obese to Beast and His Brother have full videos.. Im good at Orange THEORY and thought our workouts were Challenging
Gotta be honest, Crossfit scares me, but I may try it one day this summer. I'm actually subscribed to his channel, so I'll check it out! Thanks for the tip, man 💪🏼
Did you start out going 5 days a week?
Yeah! My first week I did. Now it’s more like 3-4. An OTF coach recently told me 4* is actually the sweet spot to allow for your muscles to really heal themselves.
Andrew Coleman Smith awesome!! I just started and was planning on starting off with 3 days then moving to 5, but 4 sounds great!
Let’s get this part correct! Nobody wakes themselves its the Lord God Almighty who wakes us all! Good video great tips tipster
Thanks for watching!!

Tip 1, spell OTF correctly :) Orangetheory Fitness! Tip 2, read Ellen's book, that's the founder and I love her
