High Intensity Interval Training vs. Heart-Rate Based Interval Training
I'm confused in at the mention of high intensity interval training in the Wiki Overview when Orangetheory website itself states: "Unlike HIIT, Orangetheory uses heart-rate based interval training, with five heart-rate zones designed to increase your metabolism and help you burn more calories." which assumes that these two trainings are different and not claiming to be the same. The source and the wiki overview doesn't technically lined up on their choice of diction. Wifruit (talk) 16:49, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Another contradiction provided by Orangetheory Workout webpage confirming: "Our workout is not HIIT. It is heart rate-based interval training, where our certified coach will guide you through our 5 different heart rate zones: resting, easy, challenging, uncomfortable and All Out, telling you when to push harder and when to pull back for recovery." I think the Wiki Overview statement "Orangetheory workouts are a form of high-intensity interval training," does not align with Orangetheory's public statements.
