Stapleton Food Drive Sponsor Spotlight – Orange Theory Fitness

Stapleton work-out studio, Orange Theory Fitness, helped support the 7th annual Stapleton Community Food Drive, held Sept 30th thru October 9th, 2017.

Walk past Orange Theory Fitness in the Town Center of Stapleton and feel the positive energy pouring out the door and it’s not just from the orange lighting! The instructors and staff are motivating, the music is thumping and the group setting is just slightly competitive in a fun way.

Each day there is a work-out focus; Strength, Endurance, Power or ESP (a combo day).  Three stations of treadmills (bikes), rowers and weight stations with the latest tools are used each day- sometimes a long block at each station all the way to a quick tornado with just 2 minute rotations. Reacting to a new work each day keeps the mind and body engaged. Heart rate monitors can be worn and the data will be displayed on a tv screen, perfect for gauging the effects of an endurance run on the treadmill or a sprint on the rower or roll-outs on the ab roller. It also tracks the number of minutes spent in the green, orange and red zones-intensity levels. Strive to spend at least 12 minutes in the orange zone as this creates the greatest calorie burn. Keep on burning into the next day!

The instructors are incredibly encouraging & upbeat and happy to provide modifications for clients working around an injury or need to adjust according to ability.

Another source of positive energy from our fellow friends in orange is their commitment to the community. Daily, monthly and yearly opportunities exist to give to diverse and worthy causes. There is a standing Soles for Souls box in the lobby, donations for toys and coats, check-ins on Facebook provide monetary donations to Breast Cancer and more. We greatly appreciated that this spirit of giving is extended to the Stapleton Community Food Drive. Abby Heifet’s, the studio manager, said “We are so excited to be a sponsor for this year’s Stapleton Community Food Drive. We strive to make the world a healthier place and that starts with supporting community events like this to benefit so many families who are suffering from poor nutrition and hunger.”

The Stapleton Community Food Drive thanks Orange Theory Fitness for their support again this year. Keep on Burning!
