Effective Fitness Based on Science and Heart Monitoring

Orangetheory Fitness, a group training fitness studio, combines strength and cardio interval training with the science of heart monitoring into a 60-minutes session.

Orangetheory is based on the science of heart rate-based interval training, so you know exactly what you’re doing in each class and how it’s going to lead to your weight loss/fitness goals. In other words: No more plateaus.

What is the Orange Effect?
Physiologist Ellen Latham inspired the unique concept of Orangtheory. It relies heavily on the science of excess post-exercise oxygen consumption.

The future of fitness is here. Backed by the science of post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), our heart-rate monitored training is designed to keep heart rates in a target zone that spikes metabolism and increases energy. The result is the Orange Effect – more energy, visible toning and extra fat and calorie burn for up to 36 hours after your workout!

Orangetheory suggests that members who exercise in the zone, designated between 84 to 92 percent of their maximum heart rate, or the “Orange Zone,” achieved the greatest fitness results and produced the highest metabolic increase and calorie burn. Members wear heart-rate monitors in order to ensure they exercise in the Orange Zone, and view their heart rate on flat-screen monitors throughout the club.

Orangetheory Fitness uses the Polar® Cardio GX software to track its members’ heart rates.

The ability to monitor their heart rate is appealing to members. It’s the quickest way to burn calories and have an increase in metabolic rate. The concept has drawn an increasing number of members to Orangetheory Fitness. Wearing a heart-rate monitor has been the only way to execute the program.

By providing you with a heart-rate monitor, we can monitor your 5-zone interval training sessions that we call the Orange 60. During the 60-minute workout, you will perform multiple intervals designed to produce 12 to 20 minutes of training at 84% or higher of your maximum heart rate, which translates to Zones 4/5. This program design produces workout “afterburn” effect, which is an increased metabolic rate for 24 to 36 hours after the workout. When combining the amazing workout with EPOC, our clients burn an average of 500 to 1000 calories.

People of all different ages and fitness levels participate — and they’re only working out at their own fitness level. Participants can expect to see increased energy after one month, and amazing results after three months. The program uses an assortment of equipment, including treadmills, rowing machines, TRX suspension training™ and free weights.

The Orangetheory workout produces increased muscle Endurance, Strength and Power and if desired, tremendous weight loss. With energetic music, a talented group of fitness coaches and a high-energy studio, you have the recipe for a workout that produces BIG and LASTING results.
