Has anyone had an OrangeTheory treadmill suddenly go to 15% incline on its own?
During today’s 0.25-mile benchmark, I set the speed to 12 mph, waited for it to ramp up, then hit Clear Screen. A few seconds later, the treadmill started going to 15% incline while I was running at 12 mph, and I had to jump onto the rails. It really sneaked up on me because I was wondering why is this getting harder this early!
I’m wondering if I accidentally hit the 15 incline button while clearing the screen or if it was a treadmill glitch.
It threw me off during the first block, so I skipped the benchmark. Thankfully my coach encouraged me to give it another shot in the second block, and I’m glad she did because I ended up setting a new PR of 1:15!
