Which distance would a member using the bike perform during a run/row with a 0.25 mile runner/jogger distance?

During an Orangetheory workout, an effective way to equate a bike distance to a run or row distance is to consider how the equipment and workout formats are scaled. The standard ratio often used in Orangetheory is that for every 0.25 miles a runner jogs, the equivalent distance on a bike is typically measured in whole miles based on the intensity of the workout.

If a member is running or jogging a distance of 0.25 miles, the bike equivalent is considered to be 1 mile. This is based on the idea that biking can generally be done at a higher intensity and is less impactful on the joints compared to running and therefore, when converted, the bike distance reflects a longer duration or effort level that balances the workout between different stations.

This interpretation aligns with the way workouts are structured in Orangetheory, promoting a balance of cardiovascular exercise across different modalities. Consequently, a member on the bike would perform a distance of 1 mile during a run/row segment where the runner or jogger covers just 0.25 miles.
