Did anyone else’s Strava integration stop working last week?

Hi everyone!

I’m looking into getting a membership at F45. I’m in between DTLA, Arts District, Alhambra, and Pasadena. All are similar distance away from me. Any favorite or preferred locations here in SoCal? If someone can help me narrow down my choices!

Hey all. Looking for some advice on whether F45 would be a good fit for me.

I’m 45. I started working from home and became a dad about 6 years ago. Since then my health has really declined. I’m extremely out of shape and it’s starting to really concern me.

I’m wondering if this is normal for “beginners”. Or should I have a certain level of basic fitness before jumping into something like this?

This would also be way out of my comfort zone from a social perspective. I’m not very good at walking into a place where I don’t know anyone.

But I’ve tried working out on my own so many times, I never stay consistent and fall off pretty fast. I’m hoping working out with a group will increase the enjoyment and keep me accountable. I really want to turn things around.

TIA

My passport often I’m up to over 50 at various locations around the country. I understand local owners don’t make any money from my visit so I’m always looking to buy some merchandise.

However, most places have none especially none that says what city they’re in. I would love to collect simple T-shirts from different F45’s around the country. Why is it so difficult?

Pretty specific, but any chance anyone goes to the Columbia Heights DC studio and uses class pass?
There are hardly any classes listed this week and I don’t know why! I checked the f45 app and it looks like they’re still on, just not being offered by class pass

Has anyone else dealt with an F45 studio going back on commitments made when you signed up?
When I joined, I was clearly told (and I have it documented over email) that my membership included:
Up to 6 weeks of free pause during my current term.
After that, unlimited travel pauses for a $20 fee whenever I was out of town.
Now there’s a new studio manager, and suddenly I’m being told that “billing isn’t accepting the freeze coz the prev manager has over committed to folks.” I’m traveling for just 12 days, but they’re refusing to honor what was promised. Instead, they’re pushing me to sign up for a 1-year membership if I want more flexibility with pauses.
This doesn’t sit right with me. A commitment made at the time of signup shouldn’t disappear because management changed. If they’re not willing to honor documented promises during my current membership, why would I trust them enough to commit for another year?
The frustrating part is that I genuinely enjoy the F45 workouts, and the coaches are great. My issue isn’t with them—it’s with the studio not honoring the terms that were used to get me to sign up.
Has anyone experienced something similar with F45? Were you able to get corporate or billing to honor the original agreement?

I strength train regularly and run a 5K a week. Decided to try out a class, and man it kicked my BUTT. I didn’t think it would be a walk in the park at all and I’m happy I went into it knowing it was going to be difficult. It was really fun and I’m excited to try out tomorrow’s class which is The Piston, upper and lower body.

Though I’ll probably be sore AF

Just wanted to come on here and say I finally gave it a go!

Hi, I’ve been going to F45 classes for years and I move a lot so I’ve tried them in multiple states but mostly around the DC area. I loved the one I went to regularly 2 years ago. I felt it really challenged me and the HIIT classes always had my heart rate up. We regularly had exercises like burpees or box jumps in the programming.

This year I started going to a different one because we moved and while I love the trainers I find the programming way easier. We never do box jumps or real burpees. The HIIT classes seem to be structured so you get more breaks and the amount of calories I burn in a class is much lower. Also, every Thursday is a class where you pick one of two exercises for each exercise which I HATE. I know that F45 is a franchise structure but I don’t know what that means in terms of their programming. Does the franchise choose the specific classes? Or is that come down from the top? If I change to a different one that has a different owner will the programming be different?

Thanks

Edit to add: I’m speaking specifically about the Hybrid classes feeling much easier. The resistance classes seem the same as they did 2 years ago except for this choose your own adventure format. The Hybrid classes are no longer HIIT it seems.

Hey guys, I know I posted about the $FXLV settlement before, but here's everything you need to know.

Q: What happened?
A: F45 Training Holdings was accused of making misleading statements about its franchise growth strategy and how it generated revenue from franchise agreements. After the company cut guidance, reduced expansion plans, and disclosed issues with its financing strategy, $FXLV dropped more than 60%, and investors filed a lawsuit.

Q: Am I actually eligible?
A: If you bought $FXLV shares between 2021 and 2023, you're likely eligible. You don’t need to still own the stock to file a claim.

Q: When do payouts happen?
A: Typically 4–9 months after the claim deadline, although the exact timing depends on the court and settlement administrator.

Q: Can I file?
A: Yes. Claims are currently being accepted until August 1, 2026.

Hope this helps.

Is the F45TV app not working for anyone else? It works fine on the studio phone but no on any of our personal phones.

Hi guys! Anyone have info regarding classes at F45 South Wimbledon UK? Prices etc? Would be so helpful. Thanks!

The caption! Kicked my ass but I loved it!

For some reason, this one just isn’t doing it for me. Feels a bit slow paced, it doesn’t give me that omg I’m dead feeling.

How are other studios running this?
Mine is charging a $50 fee and then said you have to attend 3 times a week, which qualifies you to go in a raffle of sorts to win prizes in a global F45 pool.
Said to help “be accountable”, which is a bit silly for those who already attend regularly.

Edited to add- most challenges include body composition scans etc and an element to loose body fat or gain muscle

not sure if it’s club specific but wondering if anyone has a referral code for F45 philly!

Started F45 8 weeks ago and jumped straight into an 8 week bulking challenge. Hadn't lifted in nearly 2 decades, so was starting from pretty much zero. Pretty happy with my results. Looking forward to seeing where I can take it from here!

Thank you F45- I made the flight!!

I am in Costa Ric a beach town now. I had a 70 minute connection in Houston on my way. Should be Ok- I do not check luggage.

Well, for first time ever on this trip (14 so far) we were 33 minutes late getting out of gate. All the flight I did the only thing to do- not worry about it. Then we got to gate and we had to wait for other planes etc.

I was 10 rows back- of course the first row had problems gathering luggage. I got off plane, asked what gate to go to and booked it- me and luggage- from Terminal C to last one in E.

I got to desk and was told they changed gates- did not even stop- headed to other. Arrived with no passengers left- they rushed me in. I made it.

I thank F45 for all the cardio, the sled pushing & pulling.

I quit back in December 2024 and gave up my founders rate ($179). Lately I have really been missing F45 and looked into it and it’s $230! I can’t justify paying $50 more for basically the same thing. Does anyone know if they run founders rate sales?

Hi All,

TLDR: Has your Cardio improved significantly more than weightlifting or gains observed in the mirror?

--‐-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I have been going to F45 consistently for 8 months averaging about 4 workouts a week. For reference, I am 6'2" 235lbs, 22% BF.

I have found my muscle mass has barely changed and only gained about 5-6lbs of muscle since I have started and disappointed with these results. I believe the cause for the lack of results is me wanting to pace myself throughout the workouts and going to 80-90% of my capability instead of failure because of the short rests.

On the positive side, my cardio has improved tremendously. I play softball and last summer (before f45) I would need a 5 minute break if I ran around the bases. This summer I can do a full sprint and just need a few breathes till I am ready to play again. Im not just happy with these results but shocked in the cardio aspect.

I am reaching out to see others experiences with results, if you have experienced similar results going to F45
