Is Orangetheory for YOU? - Ft. Will Tennyson
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 бер 2023
- I've been working out my whole life but I'm not going to lie,
I was intimidated at the thought of Orangetheory. I couldn't
understand the concept of having everyone's heart rate visible to all.
Were people comparing themselves to each other? What were Splat points ?
Maybe I couldn't keep up?
Like many things that we build up in our minds, the reality is much different than the
image.
Come with me today for a birds-eye view of an Orangetheory workout.
What brings people here? Can the workout be tailored to you ?
Do you need to be fit? Thin? Young?
See what my son, Will Tennyson has to say about the workout.
Maybe you'd like to give it a try.
I hope you enjoy the video!

Special thank you to OTF Markham West
Coach Jeff Sze and everyone else who participated
You and Will could always invest in OT or start a gym/spa/health food fitness center. One stop shopping with the Tenny family!
I would love that!! 👍🏼😍
Do it💪
He still can’t say no to his Mama! Yup, you raised him right!
Thanks Heather, they get older but still our babies!xo❤️
I cannot express how much I love your interactions with Will - it is so obvious that he looks up to you and you have inspired him in his fitness journey! Your kids all seem like very good people, which speaks volumes about you and your husband. ☺️
I can’t tell you how much that means to me! Thank you 😊 I feel so fortunate to have such a close and loving family around me. You will have the same, I’m sure! You’ve made it a priority with your younger ones and you will be rewarded! I appreciate you and your kind remarks 🥰
Love this as an OTF Coach! Great job guys!
I started OTF a few months before my 56th birthday in Greensboro, NC. I've always lifted weights, jogged and practiced yoga several times a week, but a good friend of mine just kept pestering me to go. My first class was BRUTAL - I had like 40 splats, but I did love it. After 600 classes and turning 60 a few months back, it's done more for me than I could ever tell you - I absolutely love it. Yeah, yeah - it's expensive and your never gonna get ripped doing a 20 minutes of floor exercises a few times a week, but you will learn proper form and how to keep improving... And the benchmarks give you a goal to keep striving for more. Your age doesn't matter - get fit and have fun at the same time.
Wow, what a great story, thx for sharing! You sound like me, I just love OT! I add a bit more strength training but I’m telling you, my cardio is fantastic as I’m sure yours is! We girls in our sixties can definitely hold our own!! Appreciate you watching! 🧡🍊
This is a great video! I havent found a more in depth video yet that provides insight to the floor workouts and how the classes with the rower, treadmill, and how the heart rate screen looks! Loved seeing how the coach interacts with the customers as well! This was great!
Thank you so much Lynette! The coaches really are top notch, correcting your form and watching out so you don’t get injured! Do you go to OT or considering it? Warning… it’s highly addictive!🤣
haha this was great, good to see you putting in the time on keeping your health and fitness up.... Being a former power lifter Will hit that point straight on, eventually i came to a point where i was getting more winded then my muscles were, i think most gym bro's need that advice....
Hi Jon, thanks for that! It’s amazing the difference in Will’s cardio since he joined (and mine too!)❤️💪🏼
Newly subscribed to yours and Wills channel You guys are my most favorite channels now! Much love from Houston Tx❤️
Thank you Cynthia, I truly appreciate that!❤️
So vibrantly healthy!!!
Thank you for this wonderful video on OTF! I'm about 650 classes in. Right now I have my membership on hold unfortunately due to an ankle sprain. I am so looking forward to getting back.
Yay!!! It is great, isn’t it! Take care of your ankle, best to you!❤️🍊🧡
I’ve been doing OTF since 2020. I love that there is a variety of people, ages, and fitness levels. I started at over 210 lbs never really having worked out before. This is the only exercise I’ve ever been consistent with, and I am healthier, stronger, and I have more energy now in my 40s than my 30s.
Awesome Ann! I feel the same way. I especially love the variety, no thinking required on our part!! Thanks for your comment!❤️
What a cool group of people
Come and join us Timmy!! 😘
great video I am sharing this with my friend who are interested in OTF. you do a great job of explaining the pluses. Also love that your Canadian ( I'm in Winnipeg) 🙂
Thanks Ian, I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! And that your friend gives it a try, I’m still working on my husband!!😂 And yay Winnipeg! 🇨🇦
I have a little suggestion, Nancy-could you do a segment on mall walking? Try it for a week and report back? I just started bc our early spring weather is horrible. I used to giggle at Mall Walking, but when you make it your own, it's got a VIBE
Hi Tina, that’s a great idea! My nearby mall has tons of mall walkers early in the am! Thx ❤️
Nancy! You should try Barry's Bootcamp the next time you come to the states- it's just like orange theory but without the rower. My favorite workout class (OTF is a close second, though)! Love this video
Hi Lilly! There are Barry’s in Toronto but over an hour away from my house. Actually 2 min walk from my work, so maybe one day I’ll get up REALLY early and give it a go! Thank you! ❤️
It's nice to see Will in your video by the way 👍😁👍
Sometimes I drag him along😂
@@MamaTenny 🤣🤣🤣
I just started orange theory and love it
Yay Tracy! It is pretty addictive 🏃🏼♀️🚣🏼🏋🏼♂️🧡🍊
Wearing orange to the orange theory, excellent choice
Wardrobe is everything😂🤣🧡
Mama Tenny that title tho… doesn’t do you justice! I think you have a younger, spryer heart then me. I’m 29 and I can’t imagine that kinda sweat session but I’m game for it 💯 💪😅❤️
Lol, the title! I’m trying to get some of my contemporaries on board!! 😂 I’m sure you’d love OT and would be amazing!! ❤️
@@MamaTenny I hear ya about that algorithm 🥰definitely have to give it a go sometime😁
I smiled goofy through the whole video 😃 it seems like a great place.
And I’m smiling goofily at your comment, thanks Sarah!🤓❤️
2:54 That whole class was in orange at the same time. Nice!
I went to OT for 2 years until the injuries really starting piling up. I was doing stuff outside of OT, too, but I was finding that I was losing muscle monthly when I would do the in-body scan. I was super frustrated with the lack of floor space for the strength section and having to walk around to find the dumbbells I needed.
Have you tried Burn Bootcamp? It's like OT but more focused on strength. If I ever decided to spend that kind of money again, I think I'd try Burn. It didn't exist in this area until a year or so ago.
Are you in Canada? I never heard of Burn Bootcamp! I’m lucky, my OT has tons of space! The injuries are game changers, I often won’t go as hard as I could on tread, for example, because I know my knees will complain later!
@@MamaTenny I'm in the northern part of the US. I think it's still a fairly new franchise. It came here in the past year, so maybe it'll head your way soon.
Do you normally take class that time of day. It looked like a 1G, which would make a huge difference. 2Gs are kinf of dicey with the space, and 3Gs are really rough, especially when doing things like burpees, pushups, etc. i was constantly having to rearrange my position so I wouldn't kick someone in the head. I felt like I spent more time doing that than anything else on the floor.
Hello mama Tenny, you looking good and you're looking well. Brilliant video 👍😁👍
Thank you Mark, I’m always delighted at your kind remarks 🥰
@@MamaTenny no problems, I thinking you're doing great 😁👍
I’m joining
About time 😂🤣❤️💋
I went to an OT once and it was fine, but the trainers were not particularly attentive (the class was only like half full and there were two that were very new to fitness that were getting somewhat condescending treatment from them if any at all). We still thought it was fine though, and that the workout was good and maybe just those trainers weren't great and/or they were having a bad day. Then we heard the price and were like NO WAY this is worth it! 😅
The concept does appeal to me though, and I think that if I didn't have the other kinds of workouts I have (and had a bigger paycheck than the one I get at a small non-profit) I would probably end up there too and find trainers I like!
Hi Susannah, it’s so true that the coaches can make or break it! I’ve found that the few that are not fabulous, don’t last anyway. It is pretty expensive at about 200$ cdn especially since you already are so active in other things! I don’t think you’d have time for it!! Always appreciate your comments Susannah ❤️
We are trying to keep our orange theory open in St.Catharines. Love OTF.
Hi Jonathan, I’m sorry to hear that. I’m wondering if a few locations are feeling the pinch as I heard radio ads today for OT. I hope not! Thx for watching 🧡🍊
@@MamaTenny yes it has just recently changed owners so they are doing a grand reopening soon I believe. Ironically the gym is by Brock university and close to Niagara college so you’d think it’d be busier. I think there will be a lot of gyms closing as people feel the squeeze of inflation tbh. Personally I am more like Will (hypertrophy training) and my wife is more OTF. I go sometimes just to spend time with her it’s fun (shhh don’t tell her I said that).
Very interesting video Mama Tenny, I think your video have a different tough to Will's and as a female audience I resonate with yours more 😆 (sorry Will!)
Thanks Vanessa! I look at things from a different perspective from Will’s… about 30 years apart!😂 Appreciate you watching!❤️
I love OT... I started about 4 months ago at the 8 classes a month. Now, I'm hooked and about to go unlimited. It's an accountability thing for me. I'm paying for it, I'm going to make my butt go...
Oh that’s me too Steph!! No way am I not getting my money’s worth! I go M-F, it’s super crowded on the weekends so I do my own thing then. Glad to hear that you love it too!!🧡🍊
Did your son say most people think it’s for older people or women? I thought it was for younger people?
How much does it cost? Thx
Hi Jane, I was wondering if anyone would catch that, thank you! I think this speaks to people’s perception of OT. Will believed, as a lifter, that if I went, it must be for older women! On the other hand, I thought it was just for young people. My husband thinks he’s not fit enough to go! What I was hoping to show was that it truly can be for everyone and there is no “typical” member.
Seemingly, prices vary and there are several packages available depending on how often you think you’d go. I’m Canadian and have an unlimited membership so that I can go as often as I like, which is about 200$CDN per month. If there’s one near you, go in for a free session and try it out! Thanks for your comment ❤️
@@MamaTenny thanks, I live in Toronto so thanks! My son and his wife go, but they live downtown and I think it’s mainly young people who go to his location. I’m with your husband I am not fit enough to go. I swim at the Y but I am over weight and don’t think it’s for me yet. I couldn’t keep up with that circuit at all. Are there people like that, that come? Thx
@@janehoward5245 oh yes Jane! Many people come with an eye to losing weight. 2 members I know lost 100 lbs. it’s not a matter of keeping up, it’s just moving. There are lots that only ever walk on the tread (or can use a bike or strider), use very light weight, tons of modifications. You burn a shocking number of calories. The bark is worse than the bite! Consistency is key. Keep me posted! Didn’t realize you’re from Toronto! 💋🇨🇦
I generally prefer to lift weights and make stupid faces of despair on the gym mirror. This looks interesting though.
I like that too! 🤪😜 Thx for watching!
