OTF Carrollwood
I have been hooked since I first walked in the front door of the studio 4 years ago. I find the workouts to be challenging, and doable.
I never thought I could be this excited every morning to workout but I am. I had both my knees replaced this year and had to take 3 months off, I couldn’t wait to get back. I’m happy to say I have been back since end of September and have been attending at least 6 days and sometimes 7every week.
The things that keep me coming back are the staff from the front desk people who make you always feel welcomed to the amazing coaches who truly want you to be successful. The workouts of course which push you to levels you didn’t think you could attain. Orange Theory Carrollwood is a family of folks who come together to become better versions of themselves.

❤️OT
Orange Theory is my accountability partner, my personal trainer, my motivator, and the reason I feel fit.
Why? This accountability partner never has an excuse to not show up, their always open! The OT app allows you to make it a mind game. It enables you to plan, show up and then gives you measurable results.
Various personal trainers that verbally cheer you on, help you through the finish line.
And after six months, I feel fit. It could be the endorphins that are released, after a hard workout. (If I workout on my own, my mind says I am done, and really my body needs to keep working.) It took a few classes for Orange Theory to become my routine, and now I can’t go a few days without it! ❤️

Simply the best!
This place is quickly becoming my favorite place to spend my time when I’m not with family. I never would have believed I’d love the gym as much as I love Orange Theory. The people are amazing! The feeling of being among friends and not at some cold gym is strong. You can never find yourself in a workout rut since the routines are different every single time you go. I feel like the coaches are personally invested in my wellness/fitness journey. The staff in its entirety from the desk to the coaches all know who you are and address you by name. It’s much more initiate than any other gym experience I have ever had. The results I have seen in a very short time are unbelievable. I’m so glad I was “talked into” checking OT out.

Better but still needs improving
Still glitchy at times. For example, the workout histories never refresh on their own, I have to close the app entirely and reopen it to see the most recent one. There are also some features that are still not incorporated from the old apps, causing me to still keep them. This includes, for example, my personal stats (e.g. all time class count that I've taken). There are also some design features that are bothersome. For instance, how the app opens up to the "base" page. This is annoying as this page is nearly useless and just adds extra screen clicks for me before I can book a class which is poor user interface practice. I am happy that booking classes and workout summaries are all in one place now.

Great way to book classes (even while traveling!), With metrics right at your fingertips
The app is easy to use, even for travelers. Booking and canceling is easy. If you're traveling, you can see what Orange Theory studios are around you, or you can search an area you're looking at in the app, and you can get all necessary contact information.
The body scan info is useful if you're tracking it, and if your studio is using OT Connect, the Treadmill stats are nice.
four stars because the search function is lacking some notable features. Future recommendations include a "previously searched" feature and the ability to select multiple studios at once from the search function, because as of right now, you have redo the search function from scratch Everytime you want to look at a new studio. It's not time consuming, but it is annoying.

The best “me” investment
This is the best thing I’ve done for myself in a long time. At the age I’m at (we’ll over 50) I’ve never felt more fit and healthy. I get compliments regularly and love the fact I can play with my grand children at their pace. 😁
Thank you to my coaches on their consistent encouragement, energy and supporting proper form. They make a scary and intimidating place feel warm and welcoming (need to call out the front desk staff too) and make you feel part of the group. That’s a big thing for introverts like me. I use to compare myself to others fitness levels, but not anymore. This is my workout and my gig. I just have friends with the same passion. And they make it fun. I appreciate a full island.
Thank you Orangetheory!

Orange Theory at New Providence Facility is Phenominal!
I have been going to Otf for the past 16 mo’s. Every day just gets better and better. I recently had a bad fall off the tread and Coach Brendan was fantastic and the front desk was really helpful. It took a week for me to recuperate but my friends,Coach’s and crew got me back in my zone. . I might be nervous when I’m waiting for a class due to not knowing what the class will be,but at the end Otf is a total body workout. I would recommend Otf to all my friends and family. Thank you Coach Nick and Coach Brendan for all your support. It’s been an awesome ride but everyone knows sometimes I need a little reassurance. I learned never give up, you can, you will, and just be you💪🏻👊🏻❤️
