Add integration with Orange Theory Fitness

[Shant]

It will be great to sync Strava x OTF data because athletes go to different workout classes and want to track and share their workouts in one place with their friends. 

I think this is important because:

• Many athletes go to workout classes outside of Strava's ecosystem like Peloton and Zwift
• Strava is the central hub for all workout data
• Athletes are adding the data manually from their workouts here
• Good partnership opportunity for both Strava x OTF

Thanks for submitting your idea. It has been reviewed by our moderation team and is now open to voting.

I've been looking for a way to do this for a long time! I track all my other workouts on Strava and cross train with orange theory once a week but can't track or share them to Strava.

As you can see in Starva there are over 1000 members who also are part of the OTF community (see link above posted by Shant). Many of them are asking for a way to upload their OTF workout into Starva. I think this would be a worthwhile addition.

Thanks

Wouldn’t this be something that the OT app needs to initiate?

The only way I’ve been able log individual OT floor/rower/thread in Strava is with an Apple Watch.

However, this causes double activity counting in the Health app, inconvenient/unsafe when switching stations and more importantly, not everyone has an Apple Watch.

Hopefully we will be able to log basic stats from OT workouts in Strava in the near future.

I was shocked this wasn’t already a feature when I started at OTF. I’ve stopped using Strava because of it.

Hope they implement it! 🤞🏼

I'd love this integration. OTFs device, Beatburn already has GPS and other sensors on it although the GPS is a little inaccurate at times. 

Sometimes I workout at OTF and want to track these in Strava.

I agree - wish I could upload my OTF workouts to Strava.

I cannot believe that Strava doesn’t interact with OTF!  I am wearing two devices and just calling it a HIIT workout because nothing else matches. It seems like a simple integration. Sounds like a $$$ corporate problem?

[Shant]

@Drperry123 think we need both Strava and OTF to partner on this. Need to let the OTF partnerships team know that you want it. Will be cool to see the post-class workout data in Strava app. Just like Peloton/Nike Training Club integrations

This is a feature I'd surely want. I currently have to double count my OTF workouts with OTF app and with Apple Watch, and I sometimes forget to start the workout on the Apple Watch, so it doesn't show up in Strava. Please implement it or at least inform us if it's on the roadmap, so I'll know it's worthwhile to keep my Strava subscription going.

I want this too!!!

[Tphambolio]

This. I'm not sure why this isn't a thing. Maybe a lot of OTF folks only do OTF? Sort of blows my mind that this isn't available in 2023. Even a link to Garmin, IOS or Google health would be enough I think... A sandboxed workout app... So 2005.

[Rick9155]

Strava does import workouts from Apple Health. And Apple Health imports them from OTF.
But Strava can't import OTF workouts either directly from OTF or indirectly via Apple Health. 

[Hoss]

Rick, just to be clear even iif you import OTF into Apple Health, Strava won't be able to extract the workout from Apple Health?

[Rick9155]

Yes, that's right, Mt. Kenya. When I do an OTF workout I have to also record a HIIT workout on my apple watch. The OTF workout does appear in Apple Health, but only the Apple Health workout gets imported to Strava. Strava can't pull in my OTF workout from OTF and it can't pull it in from Apple Health either.
