A friend had been working out at an Orangetheory Fitness and had become a believer. What if they moved back to Park City, Lucas's hometown, and opened an Orangetheory Fitness of their own? They began researching the style of high-intensity heart rate training the gym specializes in. "The next thing you know, I'm just like, ‘Wow, this is amazing,'" he said. They didn't wait to strike at the opportunity. "In a two-week period, we quit our jobs, sold our house, had a baby and moved across the country," Jill said. "We didn't know any better, so we just did it." Just more than two years later, after opening a location in Trolley Square in Salt Lake City, the Sanchez's have reached their goal and brought Orangetheory to Park City. They say Parkites have flocked to Salt Lake to try the Orangetheory style of workout and have been eagerly anticipating a location nearby. "People are so excited for us to be here," Lucas said. "I mean, we have people who have been driving to our Trolley Square location for five or six months just because they love the workout so much." The Orangetheory workout is designed to push people to reach 84 to 91 percent of their maximum heart rate, called the orange zone. The goal is for a person to spend 12 or more minutes of their 60-minute workout in the orange zone -- or the even more strenuous red zone.

But the special thing about the workout, Lucas said, is that reaching 12 minutes in the orange zone creates what's known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption. In short, that means the benefits of the workout don't stop when you climb off the treadmill and walk out of the door. "It depletes your body of its ability to build oxygen," he said. "So what happens is your metabolism increases to get you back to that state. And it lasts for up to 36 hours after the workout. So that's why we recommend people only come to workout three to four times a week." Jill added that people don't have to push themselves to the absolute max for the entire workout. That's one of the most common misconceptions about the workout. "For the hour, you're not up here, training in orange and red for the entire time," she said. "You get up into the orange and red, then have some recovery and you build up to it." The workout is effective for people of all fitness levels because it's based off each individual's maximum heart rate, Lucas said. Television screens allow people to monitor their heart rate zones while they exercise, and the trained coaches know how to push them to the next level, and get them to pull back, when needed. Additionally, members get access to print outs after each workout that show their heart rate data. They also get access to an app that tracks their progress and allows them to use a heart rate monitor to include exercise that happens out of the gym, such as skiing. "You can see a progression of how you're doing and how you have to work harder to get into the orange zone because your heart is healthier," Jill said. Month-to-month memberships are available at various price points based on the number of workouts members intend to do. The smallest packages include four workouts, while the largest one gives access to an unlimited number. Lucas said it doesn't take long for people to notice a change in themselves after becoming members, both physically and mentally. Witnessing the transformations is his favorite part of the job. "You see some people come in here, and they look down and don't look happy -- then three months down the road, you just see a completely different glow in their face," he said. "They're so energetic and so happy. And they look forward to coming here." Workers seek jobs just 3.1 percent in March, well below both the statewide and federal marks, there is no reason to believe they will have any harder time snagging a job than workers in the last two years. "These people tend to file claims for a couple weeks, then they move on to summer jobs," Stahle said. "… This is nothing out of the ordinary. This is what happens every year." The resorts themselves can play a crucial role in helping workers find jobs. Stacey Taylor, director of human resources at Deer Valley Resort, said nearly 2,000 of the resort's 2,400 workers are not retained for the summer, but the resort helps connect them with other oppor- tunities, either in the area or at popular summer destinations around the country. "We try to do what we can to help them out," Taylor said. For workers who are still struggling to nail down their next job, there is still hope. Scott said they can go to the DWS website, jobs.utah.gov to search for jobs and receive notifications about new job openings in their industries of interest. They can also upload their resumes, allowing employers to seek them out. Workers can also go to the Park City DWS office, at 1960 Sidewinder Drive, to access computers or to receive in-person assistance about topics such as resume-writing and interview techniques. The DWS is also partnering with the Park City Chamber/ Bureau to hold a job fair open to the public. The event is scheduled for May 11, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., at the Utah Valley University Wasatch Campus in Heber. For more information, visit the DWS website.
