| - The staff at this location are terrific. If you're in between this and the Paradise Valley location, choose this one. I've belonged to both and there's no comparison.
That said, make sure you understand what it will cost you to terminate. When you start the service, it's energizing and you feel like you'll be attending for a while. However, after you go through the program several times, it becomes deathly boring and many people will find they want to terminate after a few months. In my case, the cost to terminate was $139.
I haven't done the cross fit training that's popping up everywhere but people I know who have done both cross fit and Orange Theory say cross fit is much better and cheaper too.
Also, research it for yourself if they tell you that you're losing 1,000 calories per session. They claim that you keep burning calories for almost 20 hours after each session. I looked at all the info I could find about this on line and the actual story is that you continue to burn a moderate amount of calories for about 40 minutes after the workout after which any enhanced burn rate falls off to almost nothing. Orange Theory claims the full 20 hours as though you're burning calories at something close to the rate you do while in the class. In my opinion, it's deceptive and they know it.
Overall, before you sign up to their supposed "no contract", ask to meet whoever you'll be dealing with when you want to leave. If it's the Paradise Valley location, that will be Darren and you'll want to read the comments from the woman who said she got injured in their class.
