Every Orangetheory Fitness workout is challenging, and trust me, I'm one workout short of my 3,500 sessions under the orange lights, but once in a while, there is a brutal template, and this morning was one of those sessions.
After taking yesterday off from working out, I rarely miss a Monday workout, as I live by the "Never Miss a Monday" mantra.
I felt good this morning. I can't say I was at my ultra best, but I had amazing stats when it was all said and done, and I was extremely happy that my heart rate monitor worked perfectly for me today.
Today's workout revisited the ESP format from April 13th, featuring a mix of endurance, strength, and power elements across different stations. On the floor, we started with a series of timed exercises, escalating in duration each round. The initial exercises were lateral lunges transitioning into cross-back lunges and hip hinge swings, with each side getting 30 seconds initially, increasing in subsequent rounds. In between rounds, we performed walkouts leading into hand-release pushups on the knees. The finale for this segment was a challenging 45 seconds of a bear plank with alternating rows.
Adjacent to the rower, the second-floor block included high-repetition sets of low rows followed by hammer-to-bicep curls, all before a 100-meter row that really fired up the forearms.
The session concluded with a grueling series of non-stop cleans transitioning into neutral grip thrusters. This last block pushed the heart rate to its peak, making it a formidable end to a dynamic and intense workout.
On the treadmills, the session was divided into blocks focusing on endurance, strength, and power. The endurance section progressed from a base pace to a series of push paces, culminating in an all-out sprint, with each interval lengthening by 15 seconds. However, the base remained consistently at one minute, and the final sprint was 45 seconds long. It involved a continuous 6-minute run for strength, increasing the incline by 1% every 0.1 miles. The power block featured traditional all-out sprints with 45 seconds of walking recovery between rounds.
I burned a whopping 833 calories and 13 SPLATS!
I totaled 2.75 miles on the treadmills, and my speeds ranged from 5.8 mph to 10.5 miles per hour.
I rowed very little, but in the 100 meters that I did row, I hit 470 WATTS OF POWER at a high of 12.6 miles per hour rowing speed.
I went with 25- and 35-pound dumbbells on the floor for the weighted exercises.
