There are 3 OTFs around me (1 right next to my work) so i couldn’t give it up. I was toying with the idea of switching to only F45 but there’s only 1 in my city that just opened and it’s downtown (aka city traffic and no parking). I’ve been doing OTF for 2 years but started supplementing with F45 class packs 2 months ago.
Ensure to ask which days are strength days and which ones are cardio so you try both styles.

Locations in Canada have 7 day free trial for F45 so I def recommend you check it out. While they are absolutely right that they don't charge for the Challenges, they somehow forgot to mention that you will need to pay $50 for the two scans on their InBody machine. Again felt like a trick and while it's not about money per se, just feels shitty where someone says half truths. As I joined the recent challenge, I found out that I need to pay for two body scans at $25 each in order to participate. Another items that I don't like is that they pushed that unlike OTF, they don't charge for Challenges (at least in my studio). THe only premium thing I can see is that there are TWO coaches per class vs one at OTF but nothing else. I still have no clue what they mean and when I ask the owners - they feed me used car salesmen talk and it annoys me so I stopped asking. The only things I don't like about F45 so far which might vary studio from studio but they push heavily that they are more PREMIUM option to OTF. I like that F45 has timed approach with sets repeating twice or sometimes three times so you can really concentrate on the form and process vs trying to do 30 reps and run to rower. OTF would push for number of reps and then go to rower or something else so naturally i'd always feel like i didn't want to be the last one to go (yes I know I shouldn't care). The biggest improvement i see for me at F45 is the fact that you don't feel rushed through exercised. I've never been to Shred415 so cannot comment on it. My studio does some days with mostly weight training and some days have more of a cardio style work out while still using weights but a lot of body weight exercises in between. F45 is definitely a lot more weight training but it also depends on the days. I've been going to OTF for several years before switching to F45 quite recently. I will take their circuit fit class here and there. I dont want super heavy weights, like 15-30lbs. I am not into Crossfit, though I have tried it out by me and loved the studio and people. I need 30 min of weights vs just 14.5 during an hour class. Really wanting to get back to my Shred body and OTF just isn't cutting it.
What is a pod? How many people are in a class? Is it similar to Shred or Crosstown or Sweat (also Chicago based that had HIIT and AMRAP workouts, not crossfit). I've checked out a few of the exercises on this page. I have seen F45 pop up a few times here and there. I also loved being able to sign up for Abs/Arms days, Butt/Leg days or Total Body depending on what areas I wanted to focus on (or needed a break from).
I feel like I had much better overall workout at Shred. I've been going 5-6 days a week for 2 months and see zero improvement. There is no Shred415 by me, so I joined OTF. Now, with COVID, I'm working from home and not going to Chicago. Has anyone gone to Shred415 and/or Orange Theory? I used to work out at Shred414 in Chicago and was in the best shape of my life.
