    I've been going to this particular location of orange theory for almost 2 years now and wow, I…read morecan't begin to explain just how monumental finding this gym has been in my life. I originally joined to get in shape for my wedding but ended up staying for the long haul because THIS WORKS YALL. Downtown OTF is, in my opinion, the superior one in the Birmingham area. Coach Avana and Nigel have what it takes to keep me engaged in class and always pushing to be better. I go 3 times a week, sometimes more and I saw results quickly. I'm no longer embarrassed to show my arms in sleeveless dresses and tops, and my muscles are more defined. I will caution you though, you get what you put into it. If you only come once a week you probably won't see results. This is something you have to work for (as is any workout facility). Going as much as I do has yielded a long term loss in body fat, toned legs and arms, and endurance IVE NEVER HAD, even when I played college soccer. I can run 5ks without even thinking about it now AND I AM NOT SOMEONE WHO LOVES TO RUN. Favorite things about OTF DOWNTOWN- there are so many classes to choose from that you don't get at other OTF or any other studio of any sort. The coaches and staff are top notch. It is always clean and in the showers they even provide hair dryers, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. They have complimentary hygiene products in all bathrooms for that day you forget your pony tail holder, deodorant, or tampon. First class is free so why not try it out?

    I would have loved to have given OT 5 stars, because I absolutely loved the staff, facilities, and…read morethe workout. I tried OT while I was traveling through Birmingham, and I've been wanting to try an OT studio in my hometown of Miami. I signed up for a class and was told to come in 45 minute prior to class, which going to other studios I knew that was way too much time. When I questioned it, they said 30 minutes prior was ok. I showed up before class and they completed paperwork, got me setup for a heart rate monitor, did a studio tour, and then introduced me to the coach (Avana) who showed me how the equipment worked and gave a brief overview of today's workout. Avana was an amazing coach, checked on you throughout the workout and kept you motivated along the way. So why not a complete 5 star experience? The heart rate system didn't work throughout the entire workout. The coach and the front desk team checked their system to see why it wasn't working and they couldn't remedy the problem. It really defeated the purpose of the OT system and workout because of the technical problem. It's hard to figure out how you need to modify how you are performing in your workout if their systems aren't working as they should be. Would I come back to OT? Probably, but it is for the staff alone. I don't fault them for faulty equipment.. but I do fault management for not keeping their systems up to date and maintained.

    This is a great gym to get your fitness workout done. The gym is always kept clean which you'll…read morealways see an employee cleaning. The gym equipment is very easy to used and they do have trainers to help and guide you on how to do the exercise correctly. They do have a outdoor pool to used which they have a big bubble to cover the pool during the cold season. The gym offers fitness classes throughout the day. My personal time to come here is during the afternoon which be less crowded compared to the morning. The staff are always welcome and friendly every time I'm here.

    I went on a day guest pass to see if I would like to become a member. There was a man and later a…read morewoman running the main desk who were both extremely rude. The woman was downright hateful. She is definitely in the wrong job. They didn't show me around or tell me anything. I looked around myself. I went to change in the locker room and was immediately met with a rude member mad because I had not read a sign and followed a rule. She was mean. There are so many signs all over the place with rules that no one could possibly read them all. So I finally get out to the pool and even though they said free swim starts at 10:30, the aerobics class taking up the whole pool didn't end until 11. Honestly all of this really made me decide this place was not where I want to join. Also, the facilities are old and outdated. Would not recommend.
