Orangetheory Fitness Lighthouse Point

Lose weight fast — in your wallet!
I have been a member of fitness facilities for years, so I am used to the way these companies screw you over from time to time, but Orange Theory Lighthouse Point takes it to another level. I was injured and gave them a doctors note that I couldn’t exercise for a few months, so they had my wife and I sign a form putting our memberships «on hold». Well you need to read their forms carefully because what we were told and what the form said were EXPENSIVELY different. After charging us for a couple of months during which we didn’t attend they then said they would have to charge us an additional month to terminate. Then they billed us another month each 30 days later saying «it’s because of the computers saying it works out this way»! Really?! The computers are in charge of the front desk staff — who will say whatever they can (AKA «LIE») to get you to give them money — or to get you to quietly walk away.

I’ve had workouts with Steve, Jhoel, Rich, Frank, Danielle and Amanda. All are great but Rich and Amanda are my favorites because their classes have good energy. Jhoel’s workout has been the hardest so far, but all in all the trainers are great. This review (and the rating) is more about the operation than the workouts.
The OPERATIONS? I can’t say that I love it. I left OT Fitness last year, rejoined and I’ve decided to cancel my membership again because the sessions don’t roller over. So if you’ve paid for the 8 class membership, have to go out of town for business or family stuff and there’s not an OT Fitness located in your final destination, you just lose the sessions. This hasn’t been too much of a recent issue, granted, but enough that I decided my money was better spent elsewhere. I am from a different state and travel for various things throughout the year and I just don’t see the value in only being able to use 4 – 5 sessions when I’ve paid for 8.
If you travel a lot to places that don’t have OT Fitness, you might want to take that into consideration when thinking about purchases a membership. I will stress that it’s a good workout.

I love it! This is the class that makes a perfect work out, you have your cardio and you work out also your body. I could not get rid of my 10 pounds and I tried every exercise at the gim, and here in three weeks I lost them!
Love Amanda she is great! And Hally at the desk she is very friendly, very nice!

I am fairly new to OT, but I am really glad this is the closest one to where I live. I really like the trainers, the front desk staff, and the overall ambiance of the place. OT is a great workout and I miss it on the days I don’t go. At first, I was a tad intimidated but not anymore. No snobs here and everyone is focused on the goal– fitness. I look forward to coming here!
*If you want the specifics of OT, google the workout-​its essentially high intensity interval training. I wrote this review to discuss the Lighthouse Point location. I can tell you this, I have many friends who Crossfit and about 90% of them have gotten injured. I didn’t want that to be my story so I came to OT. It’s a smarter workout. I am not training for the olympics. I want to be healthy and fit!
