Orangetheory Fitness

I needed to start exercising again but never liked going to the gym on my own. Found Orangetheory and it is the perfect place for me. I love the workout classes. It's like having a personal trainer and it doesn't matter what shape you're in or how old you are. You do the workout at your own pace . The instructors do a great job of teaching and encouraging. The workouts are tough but I highly recommend taking the free class to try it out.

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE EVER. I tried cancelling my membership multiple times and this location kept charging me. I have been a loyal member to the Orange Theory brand for almost 2 years now and was so extremely disappointed with this experience. The front desk employees were unhelpful, unresponsive, and incompetent on how to cancel my membership resulting in an reimbursable charge of $800. I would recommend you avoid this location AT ALL COSTS. The studio manager was unable to compensate me or frankly didn't care how upsetting this was. I called numerous times, no call back, no reimbursement, nothing. Love this work out but frankly not worth this experience. BOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Orangetheory is one of the best workouts I have ever done! It is always fun, new, and motivating. I would suggest it to anyone looking to push themselves! After 8 months I can see real results.

I have been a member of OTF/Talleyville since November 2017 and typically go to the 5am class 4 days a week. The workouts are based on science and the focus changes every day (i.e., power, endurance, strength). While the classes are certainly challenging, they're not impossible if you work at it. The instructors (i.e., Nick, Cindy) are well trained, very supportive and want to see you succeed. I have definitely seen changes in my body, level of focus and still have a lot to accomplish. What keeps me coming is the commradere of my 5am crew and the knowledge that I will eventually reach my goal. Thank you Emily and all the staff at OTF/Talleyville!

Nick is awesome :) great workout!

good facility. new

If you're hesitating about trying a free session....go!! I can't say enough great things about the facility and staff. Workouts are awesome. At your own pace but with plenty of encouragement from instructors. This is a group workout but it is not choreographed. There are excercises for the floor and treadmills and then it's switched up. Hate treadmills like I do? Ask if you can have a bike or stay on the floor if it's not busy. I've been able to repel my fear of treadmills and my last run was quite successful. Go! You'll be so pleased with yourself. Even if it's just once.

A fantastic way to get your heart rate up and enjoy it in the process. Their instructors are high energy and really seem to care about maximizing your workout.I gave this 3 stars because I think a good part of the success of this franchise is in their technology and equipment. And unfortunately, the technology isn't very accurate, often breaks down and there doesn't seem to be a general consensus on how it works. Some examples:Rower has been down for several monthsThere are not enough 12 pound weights to go around which becomes frustrating when you have to steal them from another station during the workout.A few treadmills are not balanced and move when runningWrist band ($100) often requires replacement and seems to be very finicky during a workout. You can go from being in the orange zone to a sudden drop to grey (85% to 40%), which requires a reset in your watch during your workout, resulting in an inaccurate summary of your true workout effort.There is a significant delay in what you see on the board during your workout (your % of max heart rate) vs your reality. This is very frustrating when you are trying to maintain yourself at a certain level. Since I joined, a few of us have seen up to a 45 second delay of your actual heart rate to what is registered on their system.Their other app, OT Beat, when running this during a workout yields very different results than what appears on the board during class. For example, I was at 86% max heart rate on the board but 91% on the app. In summary, my app said I earned 25 splat points but the board only registered 20. Big difference.Not very clean. Dust balls are all around the perimeter and on the equipment.In Summary:I love the concept and will keep coming and working hard. My suggestion for those reading this and have just as high expectations of a gym that charges $156/month:Do not buy a new wrist band. You can get them used from other members who have dropped (eBay, Craigslist). Not worth $100.Use another (more accurate) source for the tracking of your heart rate, max heart rate and calories burned.Just work hard. You WILL see results. Don't let the lack of understanding of the technology and the consistent breaking down of the wristband to discourage you.Cheers and good luck!
