Dri-Tri TIPS & Motivation (with Coach Vinny) 💪🏼 Orangetheory Fitness

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

HAPPY DRI-TRI! Who’s in?!

[@NickyG790]

Andrew Coleman Smith going in for my 3rd. Wish I had this Vid last year before my first, totally went HAM on the Rower, finished first, then struggled in the weight room, finished last there, then had a somewhat rough 5k to finish 5th overall in the class... learning from that, when I did my 2nd in March, I eased up on the rower, was able to power through the weight room without stopping, and ran a decent 5k to finish 2nd and drop my time by 20 minutes! Definitely not burning yourself out is great advice, start strong, but finish stronger!

[@lydiaregister6630]

Andrew Coleman Smith I am so excited about this tomorrow!!!!! Great video

[@Bstermyster]

I jumped in! Doing it. #morelife

[@faithbalcruz6714]

Me!!! 🙋🏻‍♀️Excited for tomorrow!

[@theguyfromwalgreens]

I wish I was able to partake, but yesterday was my first class back after the worse ankle sprain I’ve ever had. I’ve never been a distance runner, but even at a base of 4.5 I was DYING!!! I’ll be with my Splatanooga family in full support mode though.

[@WilliamTruett]

I did the last two dri tri's (skipping this one due to a minor back injury) and my biggest piece of advice is to not get caught up in the adrenaline rush of the start and set a PR on the row. I feel you can't 'win' the dri tri on the row but can 'lose' it there as it seems like going 30 seconds faster on the row could lead to several minutes of recovery on the floor portion.

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

I think you deserve a break! 👊🏼

[@nathanbell5201]

90-minute class on Saturday. Dri-Tri on Sunday. Having my head examined on Monday. Can’t wait to hear about your DT2 experience. Good luck, Andrew. Have fun, and keep burning!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

HAHA HOLY 💩!!!! You are crushing the game! 🔥💪🏼 Good luck, bro!

[@nathanbell5201]

BTW: I have hipped our manager and coaches at the Ballard studio that they need to reach out and invite you to our 90-minute classes on Saturdays. Sooo... That might happen. Just sayin'...

[@laurab4570]

I’m watching these videos with Vinny and it makes me want to move where you are because I feel like you could really trust and relate to him. I hope all OTF coaches feel this way about their participants in classes. He’s so great! Awesome job Andrew getting it done!!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Vinny is truly a great friend! If you're ever in the area, you HAVE to take one of his classes!!

[@Christ-qk7or]

Sorry for the super late reply, but i just wanted to tell both of you that this vid helped me actually sign up for it and definitely helped me get thru it. I think my biggest fear was being able to do this in the 55 min (which i didn't). But i kept in the back of my mind that i can modify and not feel bad about myself. I was the last off the rower by almost 2 mins, but that helped me get thru the 5k. You guys are the best!!! Please keep them coming!

[@brendawhite414]

You guys are so great! I love all the info and encouragement. Plus, you are hilarious. 😊

[@adryennealvarez]

I loved this video. Coach Vinny is hilarious and I love your editing.

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Thank you, friend!! 🙏🏼

[@kdk9460]

I really like Vinny's vibe

[@apexwellness]

I'm in! Can't wait to NOT DIE in the #dritri with everyone else!

[@valeriealmand3110]

Thanks Andrew and Vinny! My first DriTri is March 30th and I'm excited!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@aaa45028]

I signed up for half dri trip and did the whole thing! In one hour! I only joined two weeks ago. The issue I had was hot hot my face got running with knee braces! But I loved it!!!!! go orange?! I burnt 900 KJ and got 40 splat points! I don't feel well! It's the afternoon am tired and all over the place. Any advice? I had a Greek lunch with a friend so I can take be hunger??

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Doing a Dri-Tri of any length after only 2 weeks is SPECTACULAR!!!!! Make sure you're listening to your body and resting when you need to. It's a journey, so slow and steady really does win the race (as cliche as that sounds)

[@MsThrok]

Getting pumped for my second DT this weekend! Thanks for this! Get it everybody!

[@Kpup]

ah! I needed this today! Doing Dri Tri tomorrow and I feel like I'm going to puke when I think of it.

[@elenalilly6595]

I'm doing my first one tomorrow!!! Yikes!! Nervous and just want to finish. I have been with OTF for only two months so I feel better that others have done it early on. Thanks for the video..super helpful. Good Luck to Everyone!

[@ladedacandy]

Omg. So glad I found you. Gonna be trying orange theory. Subscribed. ❤️

[@turkishman7869]

6 month with orange theory. First time did dri tri yesterday. My time was 45.15 min. Very happy with the result.

[@Tamalama3]

Thanks guys! The last 2 times I dont think I ate/hydrated enough by the time I got to the tread I was already spent. Good luck to everyone! Mines not til Sunday

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

😊 Mine is Sunday too!!

[@Christ-qk7or]

Aw man, I wish I saw this earlier. I might've signed up, lol. AWESOME, vid and idea. Coach Vinny is the best. Thank you and good luck on the dri tri!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

THANKS CHRIS!!! Hope all has been well!!!!

[@johnfoppiano9232]

Thanks coach, really liked the tip regarding the rowing portion!

[@theguyfromwalgreens]

I know I’m late here, but I’d love to see a coaches DriTri someday. It’d be awesome to see who’s the most elite of all of these wonderful ladies & gents that bring delicious torturer to our daily lives.

[@ashleydeason756]

Thanks Andrew & Vinny for this insight! So helpful for DriTri #2! I'm so stoked for March 30th!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

YOU'VE GOT THIS, ASHLEY!

[@mandeburke-nichols6508]

Doing my first DriTri sprint tomorrow. Thank you for all of your videos and motivation! ❤️

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Thank YOU for watching the vids!!!!!! 👊🏼 GET IT, FRIEND!

[@laurieamagan9707]

It’s GDFR for me at 1:30PM tomorrow at the Southwest Durham studio (my first dri-tri). Doing it for those who can’t because of Hurricane Florence. In the words of Coach Dani “Let’s do the dang thing” #carolinastrong

[@stephaniesanders2491]

Your videos encouraged me that I could do Orange Theory. Yesterday day was my first day. Had 45 splat points and burned over 600 calories. I hated it but loved it. I’m going back Monday 😬😍

[@ramona100]

Inspired to try the next dry-tri!! Thanks for all the info and tips. Were you guys clapping for the last person again? Omg that made me laugh from your previous video!

[@huhwa4126]

Love it, thanks you both for this but im still not ready 😁!! i will cheer everyone on and hang out. I will be ready in March

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

That's PERFECTLY fine!! I'll see you on the Post Dri Tri live stream on Sunday!

[@JackieCoulter]

2nd one - definitely more prepared for this one - so hoping to improve my times!

[@kristinm5299]

Omg I’m doing it tomorrow I’m so nervous. So happy you uploaded this

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Don't be nervous!! You're going to CRUSH IT 🔥

[@VKolomichuk]

I ❤️ coach Vinny! I totally wrote this DriTri off but now I’m considering it. Guess I better figure out when this years is.

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

You should totally try it!! You move at your own pace so you can totally listen to your body and take your time!

[@katies1398]

Survived my first Dri-Tri today! Was hoping to finish in under an hour and ten min, but did it in 57:48!! I think there is something to be said about the adrenaline rush. I usually do the 90-minute class on Saturdays and some how this was both harder physically but easier mentally if that makes sense.

[@millmill67]

Yay, glad to see coach vinny again 😊 still not doing the dri-tri though. 😀 I think it's more a fear of being the slowest person by far and everyone waiting a long time for me to finish.

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

I was second to last the first time I did it and I felt the same way and then I realized how excited the class was for that last person - it was really encouraging to see the family aspect of OTF come out!

[@sarawhite19]

If wanting to lose fat, should someone start on the cardio side or strength side first? I've heard mixed reviews..

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Honestly I've heard that weight lifting really burns a lot!! I don't think it matters where you start exactly, as long as you do both sides, it will give you a good, even workout! 💪🏼

[@turkishman7869]

I think cardio first. If you do cardio first you might burn more while doing strength (weight room)

[@kevinmacwatters1519]

I'm in tomorrow for the dri-tri. Good timing and tips thanks

[@FrankBergdoll]

It's 12noon Friday..... I'm Dri-Tri in 4 hours.... tick...tick...tick...tick... BOOM!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Ha!! GET IT!

[@sallyg.4754]

Your videos motivates me..new subscriber here! I was thinking about participating tomorrow but since I just started and had done 3 sessions, decided to do it next time. Thanks for the tips!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Thank you Sally!!!!!

[@pamcaddell452]

Thanks for the tips. I feel better. Dri Tri tomorrow

[@aa0517748]

Damn. Intense work.

[@brendagerdeman7853]

Love coach Vinnie!!!!

[@leah5302]

I’m in! Nervous but excited too. Good luck everyone p

[@scolberg72]

Hi Andrew! My wife and I joined Orange Theory 2 weeks ago after we watched your videos. A little too soon to try a dry try tomorrow, however I will do the next one for sure. We live in North Vancouver and would like to come down and see Seattle. What do you recommend we do for a 1 day visit? Maybe we will see you at the gym ;)

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Good for y'all for getting in there and thanks for watching! I would suggest going down to Pike Place Market of course and maybe the Seattle Art Museum that's close by to there. THEN, head over to OTF with me and let's all workout together! Let me know when you're coming and we will work this out.

[@phildetter8966]

I'm doing it tomorrow and I just started on July 31st.

[@emmahurst2068]

I am three months in and I am doing a Dri Tri for the first time. I have done a 2000 meter row and 300 bodyweight exercises in separate classes but I have never done them together and then a 5k after that. I might need to power walk. I'm super nervous. I am curious if it is more or less intense than a 90-minute class.

[@patrickmoses7609]

I'd say equal to, or slightly harder than a 90 minute class. Mainly b/c all three segments are significant ENDURANCE challenges on their own, let alone all three together. If you've done a 90 minute though, you can DEFINITELY do it!

[@emmahurst2068]

Pat Moses thanks! That’s super helpful!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

A little more intense, but like Vinny said, just pace yourself and listen to your body! You're going to do great - be EXCITED not nervous! 😊

[@shaymagosai8677]

i was too chicken to sign up, but i promised myself id do the next one

[@allisonrowe5778]

WE ARE IN!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

👊🏼

[@VanessaNario]

I just finished my Dri Tri today! it was challenging but oh so good! Id do anything for a free water bottle and towel hahahaha

[@joyr9093]

Anyone can totes do it and they will be so proud of how far they can go!

[@amycrew]

I joined orange theory just over a month ago, I'm signed up to the dri Tri on Sunday, after a 10 hour night shift.... Not sure what I'm thinking

[@rorykeane4945]

Heyyyy! I'm in a similar situation!! I just started over a month ago as well and I won't be getting as much sleep since I had to sign up for the 5:30am Saturday one since that was the only one available when I wouldn't be at work. I've done night shift work before....kudos and good luck!

[@amycrew]

@@rorykeane4945 I'm working a 2000-0600 shift and booked on the 0730 session.... Gonna be tough! Good luck to you too!

[@Bstermyster]

Fomo is real! I hate missing anything OTF! I kept trying to talk myself out of doing it for three weeks by saying all the reasons why I wouldn't be good and then yesterday I asked myself why I was talking myself out of it since OTF is all about the things you CAN do now that you couldn't do before and not just the physical, the mental too. OTF changes you when you just let go of the fear. Good Luck!!!!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

YOU'VE 100% GOT THIS AMY

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

I love this - "OTF changes you when you just let go of the fear." This is so true with most things in life!!

[@einahpetshumphrey1639]

Dont go out too hard on the rower!!! Unless you know you and you've done this before and are going for a top time etc. Oh and I loveeee Coach Vinny...layers...upon layers

[@Runner4ChristTC]

Doing my first dri tri today.

[@MamiMonguita]

I am so nervous 🙈🙊🙉 I am planning to do my first Dri Tri at the end of March (I started OTF June 2018, and did not do it the first time it was offered - I was NOT in shape LOL)

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

Don’t be nervous!! I’ve done two - you can do this too!!!

[@madmama03]

Maybe next time I will be ready. I am only one month in.

[@joeyritchie469]

I have been thinking I would never try the dry tri. Now I wonder why? Ill give it a month and a nigh and then try the 'dry! thanks for the inspi...re...ation.

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

You can totally try the dry! 💪🏼

[@NathanielMinx]

The Kardashians are quaking rn

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

I LOL’D

[@britlynn]

Yaaaaass !!!!

[@quinneverett]

How many times per year is the Dri-Tri?

[@NickyG790]

Quinn Cahill they seem to happen 2x a year, March and September.

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

I think twice!!

[@juls_7182]

Where did coach Vinny get that hat?!

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

I think he said he amazon'd it!

[@kylewilliamson9946]

Does a coach keep track of your reps on the floor?

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

From what I remember, you keep track like a typical class (honor system)

[@einahpetshumphrey1639]

Ours was honor system

[@riskrunner42]

No way Jose! 🤷‍♀️

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

😅

[@pirate0nduty]

I am trying to fed up of your paid collaborative videos with orangetheory. I am unsubbing you for this.

[@AndrewColemanSmith]

I've never been paid by Orangetheory for any video, but if you don't like my vids, then I understand you unsubscribing. Thanks for watching the videos you watched while you were here though! Have a great week!!
