![]() I absolutely loathe running and have nada to offer on the stamina front. I have a sudden change of heart when I arrive at the studio and find out today’s session is endurance-based. Day 3, Wednesday:īy day three of my week-long challenge, I already feel like I’m in the swing of things and actually looking forward to my class each day. I’ve never really done rowing before and found it tricky to get to get used too and my form kept having to be corrected. The hardest part of today was the rowing. I’m told however it isn’t unusual for beginners to score more as your endurance gradually builds up. The aim of each class is to score at least 12, and much to my delight I come out with 36 points and 637 calories burnt. One thing I’ve realised is that when I think I can’t give anymore, I usually can, which I can tell from what heart rate I’m working out. ![]() I’m a little nervous as I have no idea what to expect from my first class, as each class different, focusing on either strength, power or endurance or a combination of all three. I arrive at the Islington studio in North London 30 minutes prior to my first session, where I fill out a form where I’m asked about my fitness goals, current exercise regime (which at the moment is pretty non-existent) and any orthopaedic issues, which helps your coach give you guidelines of what to aim for in the session and how hard to push yourself. What it's like to do Orangetheory every day for a week Day 1, Monday: 8 reps seated shoulder press (seated position to help eliminate momentum). ![]() 20 minutes floor work 8 reps (each arm) Single arm low row (single arm work helps with anti-rotational movement, helping to strengthen your core).15 minutes alternating between 200m row and x 6 medicine ball squats. ![]()
