Orange Theory is for people that need a lot of hand holding, external accountability, and camaraderie for fitness. It schedules and structures your time to an allotted amount. No more, no less.
It caters to time rich, motivation poor people.
I checked one out, 70% of the people were out of shape. Small, one time sample but 2/3 of the staff weren’t in the type of shape you’d expect for a program based around HIIT and a focus on the core.
If you like the rack, free weights, and shifting programs, it’s not for you.
If you want to maintain, be social, or have someone design your workouts down to the second, it’s for you.
