Is it required to purchase a heart-rate monitor to be a member at Orangetheory Fitness?

At Orangetheory Fitness, it is not a requirement for members to purchase a heart-rate monitor to participate in classes. While having a heart-rate monitor enhances the workout experience by allowing members to track their performance and understand their heart rate zones during the session, it is not mandatory for membership. Members can still enjoy all the benefits of the workout without owning a personal monitor, as the studio typically provides options for using monitors on-site during classes. This flexibility allows members to engage in workout sessions without the additional cost of purchasing a device upfront, making the fitness experience more accessible to everyone.
