One of Austin’s most popular and high energy workout facilities is expanding and has announced plans to open a new location in Westlake.
Orangetheory Fitness offers 60-minute interval workout classes for all fitness levels. Programs are designed for the user to burn calories during and after they workout and OF claims clients burn an estimated 500 to 1000 calories per session. The studio features top of the line equipment, upbeat, motivational trainers and the inspirational color orange can be seen everywhere! The fitness company says it not only offers a completely different exercise philosophy, but provides services at a fraction of the cost of “big box” gyms with personal trainers.
Each OF facility requires an average of 3,000 square feet square feet with 40 to 50 feet of linear storefront, providing premium parking for members. According to a quote in a recent Community Impact article, company officials say they were very pleased to have secured locations for their studios that meet these specifications in some of the region’s hottest retail centers (such as Westlake).
In addition to the new Westlake studio, other locations in Orangetheory’s 2016 expansion project include Cedar Park; the Domain and Lakeline in Northwest Austin; Lakeway; Leander; University Blvd. in Round Rock and the Triangle in Central Austin.
Construction on the Westlake location will begin early this summer and plans to open in late 2016. You can check out more information on gyms and other Westlake area exercise opportunities here.
