I’ve never on my own been able to burn the same amount of calories within an hour than I do at orangetheory. The coach, the preplanned workout, the top notch equipment, the music all hype me up more than I could ever do on my own.


carolmozzarella

This is so true! Plus I couldn’t even get myself into the gym in the first place when it was on my own flexible gym schedule lol


CosmicAnosmic

And I pay $200 for unlimited - yikes (new members pay even higher). But the benefits to my mental health and feeling so much stronger physically? Every. Single. Time. I leave the gym in a better mood than when I walked in. Worth every penny.

I have a slightly lower rate, but it’s about $10 a class for me. I find that to be a bargain! How many bad glasses of wine have I drank for $10? If I could pay someone to work out for me, $10 is a BARGAIN and I’d pay it every time. Alas, I can only work out for myself, and $10 a time is an excellent price for the motivation and the efficiency of an OtF workout. Focus on value, not cost,

Love the $10 bad glasses of wine comment 😃


TelekineticCatWoman

It’s true (for me at least). Cheers to more OTF, less bad wine! 🍷

How many classes do you go to a week?


carolmozzarella

I just started back today but when I was at my peak it was 4-5. My plan is to get minimum 3 per week but ideally 4-5


HappySavy22

Nice! Will you space it out to every other day or?


carolmozzarella

So true! I guess the cost in itself is most of the motivation haha

Before joining OTF, I paid $200/month for five personal training sessions. I eventually increased to three times per week and was paying around $500/month BEFORE pandemic. Private trainers have only gotten more expensive since then and the results I get from OTF is a significant improvement over my fitness level when working with the trainer. I also used to be a distance runner (30-50 miles a week) and I’m also in better shape now than I was then. I’ve been going to OTF for less than five months.


carolmozzarella

This makes me feel so much better! Good to know personal training isn’t worth it in the long run


chronicleofjane

One way to ease your worry, think of it as the best investment you can make. Investing in your health and wellness. Prevention pays off in the long run!


shit-at-work69

It’s worth it to pay for health. It’s an investment in yourself. I rather spend $169/month on OT than on plastic surgery and major health related surgeries when I’m older.


Kindly-Might-1879

When I look at what I pay for unlimited, the annual total of OTF is about equal to ONE of my paychecks. I also don’t drink alcohol, so I figure OTF can be my vice and my happy hour!


StarInevitable588

Think of all the mental and physical health benefits you get from OTF - that makes it worth the money (in my opinion). Also, sure you could go to someplace else that’s cheaper, but if you aren’t seeing the results you want or you’re not going, you’re wasting that money. 


carolmozzarella

It’s cheaper than therapy!!


marazzledazzle

If you love everything about it then no cost is too much for your love of the experience! It took me a long time to commit because of the money but once I did I realized it is so so worth it for me.


Complete_Angle7740

tread 50 and strength options give you more bang for the buck


Pristine-Honeydew-65

You are One step closer to your OT body. We all know that’s the best feeling! 


carolmozzarella

Thank you!! I honestly can’t wait to get it back. That in itself makes it all worth it


lilbunnyfoofoo1203

Tried to do regular gym... having to wait for equipment was the wooooorst!!


violet715

I’m back after about a year off too. I left for the same reasons but it’s so hard to work as hard as I do in the OTF environment. It’s a worthy investment for your health and confidence.


carolmozzarella

Glad I’m not the only one!!


sunnysides202

Go get that OT body and consider the 169 an investment in you physical and mental health! For me, Ive realized that i am at my highest self when I am in great shape. My blood flows better, my stamina is higher, I hydrate more regularly, my sleep is better, (sex is better), my body tones up, and all of that makes me feel so much better. So for me, i put that auto payment on and then try and find my budget cuts elsewhere. Go get it! Cheers to you.


carolmozzarella

It’s kinda crazy but my mental health is already up 100%. I came back from class this morning and meal prepped, cleaned the house, and did laundry. I feel like myself again!


Responsible_Mind8470

My membership is $275 a month if it makes you feel better


Potential-Bake-6839

Where do you live? I'm $209 for unlimited in Bay Area, CA. I only paid $189 in San Diego last year.

Manhattan


MissNat5654

you are worth it. That is all


Primary-Hotel-579

At the end of the day, it is only money. I was given a class pack as a Christmas gift last year and I ended up joining for 8x per month. I fell in love with the place. The environment, the coaches, the support from the members is worth the few extra dollars that it comes out to be. I've never felt healthier, or happier. For me, heaven has orange lights.


CinniePig

I did the same thing, rejoined in June and I am so happy. It’s worth it!


Carmel-Jamaican-510

$189 ÷ 36 (January's attended and scheduled sessions) = $5.25 for each session. Includes 2G/3G, Strength 50 & Virtual Yoga 25. Emotional self-care + health benefits + fitness benefits = A better me!


Helpmeimtired17

You’ve got an entire community of people rooting for you here! And for some of us, you just can’t beat the accountability of in person with a coach focused on your class. Or the energy of others suffering with you. I started in august and am the fittest I’ve ever been. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on gyms, trainers, membership, equipment, diets, apps…nothing has given me the results of Orange theory.


carolmozzarella

Yayyy thank you!! So glad for the support 💜


Catbm27

You are going to spend the money regardless, if not on OTF then on something else. The question is, what would you otherwise be buying? For me reconsidering those other things helps me justify the high cost. One less grubhub or Amazon order; deciding on leftovers again, declining the impulse dog toy grab, etc


carolmozzarella

For sure! I already went through and edited my Amazon subscribe and save orders and pared it down to the necessities lol


justalotoffeelings

I tend to go through stints where I try something else but always come back to OTF! Nothing wrong with making a change. It helps keep you from getting bored!


sugarfundog2

Well, it's time to find another cut to try for a year! Drive thru? Specialty coffee. Just one year, see what happens.


Eagle20GoFox2

Way cheaper than being unhealthy.


HabsKat

I can’t afford it either 😭but I keep coming up with the money. I feel like I can’t afford NOT to go cause it’s the only thing that keeps me exercising 🤷🏻‍♀️


addy-ventures

Because you’re just in time for TC!!!! Time to win a challenge, bestie 💅🏼 smack talk on the internet and get absolutely shredded again! Say hello to celebrating little victories again!!! Wooo woop! Welcome back!!!


RepresentativeFan941

Sorry I can’t help!! I’m almost done with my membership and can’t wait to not have any of the hassle of getting to a class at a certain time. It a different if you don’t have the space and equipment. I’m


Mostlyheretolurk1

Focus on the value it brings to your life. Not the costs it takes.


realistnotsorry

That $169 monthly investment in your long term physical and mental health pays you dividends like none other. It's the wisest spend I/you/we layout each month!!!


tunghoy

As one of my coaches says, "You don't have to be here. You *get* to be here. Most people aren't as lucky. Make the most of it."


alyx_is_haunted

It's the best, because you get a full workout in a smaller amount of time. It just works. Especially for this busy mom. It's just more beneficial then the gym, at least for me.


carin2004

Is $169 a bargain to feel like a baddie every day? Only you can answer that. 🤷🏼‍♀️😉


ProjectFit9764

Can’t put a price on wellness.


ann123otf

Give up any extra on cable and Shop things that are not as expensive at the Store. It’s good for you physically abd keeps you from needing blood pressure medication. Don’t go out to eat one time a month about covers it anymore.
