Approximately how long are members on the rowers before transitioning to the weight floor during the warm-up?

During the warm-up segment of an Orangetheory Fitness class, members typically spend about three minutes on the rowers. This duration is designed to effectively elevate heart rates and engage multiple muscle groups, setting the stage for a productive workout. The rowers provide a full-body cardiovascular exercise, which helps to loosen muscles and joints, preparing participants for the intensity of the workout ahead.

Transitioning after this timeframe ensures that members experience an adequate warm-up period, which is crucial for reducing the risk of injury and maximizing performance. Spending more time on the rowers, such as five minutes, could extend the warm-up unnecessarily, while significantly shorter durations like one or two minutes might not provide sufficient conditioning for an effective session. Hence, three minutes strikes a balance that supports optimal performance and safety for members transitioning to the weight floor.
