I love Orange Theory, and it works for me. I think this might be a case of not enjoying HIIT workouts in general. I notice she is trying to bring attention to her own workouts while bashing OTF. I'm a tad suspicion of her motives.
I MIGHT have actually commented on that post (been a blog follower since 2011 :)
I used to be a coach for Orangetheory in 2017 and did feel the same way/ noticed a lot of members experience the same as myself in terms of exhaustion and weight gain I stopped Crossfit for this very reason; I was too tired and overly caffeinated, overeating since I was always hungry, craving sugar more than usual and gained about 10lbs in the almost year of doing it. Now I just walk daily (for 10-20mins), do Pilates 2 times a week and just 30 mins of total body strength training 1-2 times a week. I feel way better, not overstressing my body and lost those 10lbs and then some. Excited for your RUclips journey as an OG follower!
Yay! So glad to hear that you've made some positive changes to your fitness routine and that you're feeling better! It's so common to fall into the overtraining trap, especially when these workouts are so 'fun.' Thanks for your comment and following my RUclips journey!!
@@carrotsncake Agreed! It's easy to ignore your own body when you are having fun/ meeting new people wherever you are working out. You just want to keep going but at the end of the day it's important we DO listen to those cues!
@@FitCoffeeMom Yes, 100%! I ignored the symptoms for so long!
im an otf head coach and by no means think the workout is one size fits all without its own set of flaws-however this video is misleading. its not the otf workout per say, but your lifestyle outside of otf. what did your diet look like pre/post workout? the workout itself (going hard af everyday or taking active recovery days)? recovery i.e. stretch/hydration? sleep? a lot of key points are missing here which makes the point of the video very catered to you personally and not the workout.
the main thing that made me squirm is when you repeatedly said your body craved carbs as if thats a no no. carbs are a fuel source and not all created equal. please refrain from causing stress/shame around key nutrients with no legitimate credentials to back it up. yes i read your bio, but unless youre a registered dietitian you should leave nutrition related commentary to those who are legitimate professionals. xx
This. So very much this. This whole video is a textbook example of "correlation does not prove causation" and cannot be taken for anything other than an anecdotal synopsis of one person's experience. Anyone who watches this should NOT use it as a reason to make a decision about OTF or working out in general. Consult your doctor, take your personal needs, goals and abilities into account and make your decision that way. Learn how to track and interpret your results in a scientific and meaningful way.
completely misleading, gained wieght? maybe muscle. She should pay closer attention to what she was eating, OF Course you're blood sugar will crash if you don't eat.
I know this comment is a year old. But I was looking into OTF because my cousin and 60+ disabled aunt has started it. Me as a diabetic, when she said her sugar was crashing and talked about carbs I cringed. I have spent last two years learning what I can and can't eat. Then the last 6 months of my continous glucose monitor really opened up my eyes as to how different carbs affect my blood sugar while I am inactive vs doing something as simple as gardening or using the push mower.
You are sooo right, not all carbs are created equal. I feel like she misinterpeted her body's carb needs when she said quick carbs. I thought that too at first as I started getting my diabetes under control. There is sooo much none of realize about how foods actually affects our individual bodies, especially when it comes to how much certain carbs may affect us. My mom is diabetic but can eat apples without dangerous blood sugar spikes. I cannot eat apples because mine goes too high way too quick. I suspect many people have different reactions to different complex and simple carbs similar to my example.
I learned when my body caves carbs it is not really simple quick carbs. Those turn to sugar more quickly than complex carbs and offer less nutrition. Now I keep things around like multi grain Korean congee, make multi-grain (NO WHITE RICE AT ALL) rices, sweet potatos or yams for a sweet snack instead of chocolates or ice cream or crackers, no idaho potatoes - sadly I very rarely eat potatoes now, fruit is limited (see diabetes lol). I eat lot of legumes/beans, greens, onions, garlic, ginger, as lean of meats as I can afford each shopping trip, and stay as far away from processed anything due to the high sugar and salt/sodium content in the majority of canned and jarred goods. Thanks to my Dexcom G7 and now switched to my Freestyle Libre 2 continuous glucose monitor, I know I can only have very limited artificial sweeteners too. I have to stay way from sugar alcohols because even though they are usually with Stevia and Monk Fruit, for me they spike my sugar too.
What you eat day to day and how a person processes glucose, whether they are diabetic or not, really really does affect them. Even more so if you are doing any kind of demanding physical activity. My wife is not diabetic, but we both eat a diabetic diet now. And have learned there are foods that make her sugar spike too and make her feel like crap when it drops. We are using that info to tailor out food habits for the better. I wish more people had access to continuous glucose monitoring. I think they would be surprised at how much food may be one of the top factors for why they feel so low energy, suddenly sleepy, or yuck physically after eating. While physical health, autoimmune disorders, and chronic pain defineitly contribute to that too, what we eat and the lack of affordable good food choices plays as a big a role too.
Quick carbs are a good way to feel like crap within 30 minutes to an hour after you eat it because you were hungry after a workout. I would rather eat simple beans and rice with some seasonings after a workout than a burger, big meal, or a "health bar."
I would have thought the same thing she did after her workouts before I realized my blood sugar spikes and drops were a big factor as to how I felt. The way my wife and I will handle nutrition pre and post demanding physical activity and workouts is very different now vs 2 years ago. Even she, a non diabetic, did not realize how her blood sugar spikes were affecting her energy levels. It certainly is not a cure all but learning food's affects on your individual blood sugar/glucose process will be a big factor in helping a person feel a little to a lot better, depending on other health conditions.

You clearly stated you had a poor diet""
Hitt Training should be done 2 to 3 times a week with days of recovery.
Orangetheory does work"More Life Better Health
I am quitting tomorrow for the same exact reasons. Thank you so much for sharing your experience.
I am so thankful I saw this. I am 53 going through menopause and eat keto. I have been trying to decide what type of fitness I want to do.
I am surprised about this!
I am 40; I have been training OTF since a Year ago and I just can say that I wanted my body to get toned; so I was pursuing to take the three classes a week Of lifts OTF offers. Still feeling not toned, still belly fat ..Finally the studio crowded at strength class and leaving you out; all this symptoms I was having I didn’t pay attention because I thought it was a part of getting better.
I really appreciate how orange theory gave me cheers to jump into a HIT workout and making me feel stronger in this year; but I really want to get toned and is not happening. I eat keto, I began counting my calories searching for more results. I am deciding to begin to a different routine to get fit and toned as I am looking for.. I really was thinking my hormones are a trouble as I got 40; but now I can see that I was not the only one with this side effects of OTF. The bad management of the ladies in the host stand leaving me out of classes pissed me off and I began searching for OTF information. Well, thank you
I'm curious as to what your A1C Blood Sugar levels are looking like. Some of the symptoms sound like they one of someone that is pre-diabetic. I would get a blood test just to check.
I've been doing OFT in Derby UK for almost 2 years. First-year I lost 4 stones so totally different experience to yours. Now I'm keeping the weight off and in the best shape of my life🎉🏆.
did you have to count calories or stay with in a calorie goal to lose weight ?
@@JitinMisra Mine wasn't as prescribed as that. Ate less, OFT at 6am 3 times a week and intermittent fasting. Wasnt easy, but very well worth while. The coaches, staff and other 6am'rs were (and still are) all very supportive as well.
@@SchuggiesCeilidhs what was your intermittent fasting schedule ?
@@JitinMisra Oaty protein-heavy breakfasts, for 3 days with just water during the rest of the time.
My friend has been doing this for a few weeks. She was bugging me to go so I decided to do the free class over this weekend just to keep her motivated. I have to say, I didn't see the rave about it. I did the orange class with the threadmill, rower, and strength. I find that for what they were doing, the price wasn't justified. I also didn't like the intensity of getting into the "orange zone" was too much. I work out 3-5 days a week most weeks in my house and the results I've gotten doing my at home workouts has been all that I was looking for. I was able to keep up and my recovery was quick but I was just whoa that people would go at it like that multiple times a day. Like I don't want to discourage my friend because she absorbed needs to be working out but I hope she doesn't experience any of these symptoms from going over there.
I agree with O Lee and Fit Coffee Mom. Making sure to pay attention to your body is so important. Workouts are not a one size fits all. I have never done Orange Theory, but I have done very similar to it in the group circuit training I used to do. For me after a year, I became frustrated at working out so intensely and then feeling so swollen for a couple days after. I realized that this type of full body workout was not for my body type. I have competed body building in the past and my body responds so much better to weight lifting and strength training the way a body builder works out where you work on about two specific body parts (three if you throw in an ab workout as a superset) , I also respond better to cardio kickboxing type workouts. I have never had as many injuries as I did when I did that circuit type training workout which is very similar to Orange Theory. I've been a gymnast in my life, a cheerleader, play volleyball and very athletic and have never had the type of injuries that I had when I did those type of workouts. So it does go to show that if anyone else reads some of these comments and you're also frustrated working out so hard and not seeing the affects that you would like, it's just a matter of finding the workout that is best for you and your body. I have friends that have great results with Orange Theory, but for others a different type of workout will be more beneficial 😉
Thanks for sharing. :)
I've been going to OTF for over a year and I've had the opposite experience. I never go 5 days a week though. Sounds like you didn’t take enough rest or fuel your body properly. It's good that you listened to your body and stopped though. Something clearly wasn’t working. it doesn't seem to me that it was OTF specifically though. You can taylor those classes to your level and it seems that you didn’t do that.
This is wild she has serious metabolic issues
Certainly sounds like overtraining- cortisol too high, not enough recovery, sleep/energy suffers and fat accumulates around the midsection. Maybe threw you into adrenal fatigue. Some people are more sensitive to overtraining and hormonal imbalances, and certainly the other elements of your life can contribute to throwing your total stress load overboard (so if you're doing HIIT classes and ALSO have a stressful job etc etc). I don't think that OTF is a no-no for everyone, but your experience speaks to the need for all of us to listen to our bodies and be flexible in how we approach exercise, rest, nutrition, and stress management to create a healthy and balanced lifestyle.
She is just sharing how she felt towards circuit work out and it happened to be otf, why is everyone so quick to defend otf and taking it personal?
She is spreading misinformation and then peddling her own fitness programs. The symptoms she was experiencing were most certainly due to her poor nutrition and sleep choices, and it didn't sound like she gave OTF a chance to even do her body any good
Because she's putting OTF in the title when she should have just said HIIT workout. OTF has been great for a lot of people and maybe they feel that they are getting a raw deal in this video.
I have the same issue & it’s really hard for me to accept. I always ask myself how women do classes like this everyday. I get lethargic & super hungry. This is the first time I’ve ever heard a fitness person say something like this & it makes me feel so much better !
Very inaccurate about the OTF experience. As far as the workout goes…many members experience INCREDIBLE results and find that with increased movement and increased metabolism with muscle gain, they have increased energy. This is ONE perspective and not a universal OTF member experience.
How is her personal experience inaccurate? That’s what she experienced lol
Shut up? Lol
@@UdoADHD She's spreading misinformation by correlating OTF to the symptoms she was experiencing. Her symptoms were most likely due to her poor nutrition and sleep choices as opposed to whatever fitness program she was doing at the time.. and then she promotes her own fitness programs at the end of the video?
@@lamspam I posted that 5 months ago. I don't remember the video and I don't care.
@@UdoADHDyou cared enough to respond, Lol.
🚩Am I the only one who thinks Orange Theory is trolling this review? 🚩
So you were overtraining then. Also not eating enough
this is so misleading...strange how she is attempting to sell you on "her" workout program, so typical desperately attempting to be another fake influencer. Just Stop, Just Stop. Running, walking and a little bit of weight training is good for 99% of people.
Thought this would be an informative video, all it is ...a mega Debby Downer.
Such good information! Thank you
Yay! So glad to hear! :)
Some seems off here.....
yeah, she's peddling her own fitness programs lol
𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙢
Btw, I'd never subscribe to anything titled Carrots&Cake. Eat healthy for weight loss. Use exercise for all the health/longevity benefits.
I feel like the "symptoms" you get from orange theory are symptoms you're gonna get with any exercise, Ms. Lol
5 days a week! WTF. Have you never read anything about starting exercise, rest days, building slow...etc. HIIT workouts are good for blood sugar, cardio, cholesterol. And eat a better diet! Cut out the sugar and cheap carbs. (I do think OTF is expensive but it works for under motivated people. Or those who get it free through health insurance. )
This is so easy. NUTRITION! And more NUTRITION. You gained weight because you didn’t eat enough, you treated your body like a diet, if you had proper nutrition this wouldn’t happen to you. You were restoring weight. OTF wasn’t the problem, your nutrition was. Exhausted, no sleep, and no recovery, it was the workout. It was your nutrition. You had no energy, and this was the result.
with the side burns that lady was gross
This video seems predatory to women trying to better their lives by joining Orangetheory Fitness (OTF), not seeing immediate results and then you peddling your own fitness program to them. You most likely didn't get the results you wanted because of your nutrition and sleep choices. OTF is also an at-your-own-pace workout program, so you can powerwalk the same speed the whole time during the treadmill split if your body isn't ready to switch it up. This video is just filled with misinformation :(
Comedy
Your symptoms has nothing to do with OTf. Please seek a professional., you need help
