How is the treadmill portion typically structured in an Orangetheory workout?

The treadmill portion of an Orangetheory workout is designed to incorporate a variety of efforts to maximize cardiovascular benefits and boost overall performance. This structure typically includes base pace, which serves as the foundational speed that participants can maintain comfortably, push pace, where individuals increase their intensity for a challenge, and all-out efforts, pushing the limits of speed for short intervals. This combination ensures that participants engage different energy systems and promote heart rate variability, which is essential for building endurance, strength, and overall fitness. By integrating these varying intensities, workouts can also cater to different fitness levels and help participants achieve individual goals, making the treadmill experience dynamic and effective. The structure is carefully crafted to deliver a comprehensive workout that enhances both aerobic and anaerobic capacity.
