In an Orangetheory Fitness session, how are endurance Tread Blocks primarily characterized?

Endurance Tread Blocks in an Orangetheory Fitness session are primarily characterized by long, steady-state efforts. This type of block focuses on maintaining a consistent level of exertion over an extended period, typically aimed at building aerobic capacity and endurance. During these blocks, participants work at a moderate intensity that allows them to sustain their efforts for the duration required, honing their ability to perform at this pace over longer distances or times.

While interval training is indeed a core component of some training blocks in Orangetheory, endurance blocks specifically emphasize longer durations of steady running rather than alternating between high intensity and rest. This distinction is vital for understanding the specific goals of different blocks within the session.
