Expand Transform
Next:
Draw some stroked concentric circles

What you cannot see in the video: when clicking with the rotate tool, press the Alt key while doing so.
In order to create those inner (red in your case) parts of those triangles, draw another circle and then use the shapebuilder tool.

Type:
Draw two stroke concentric circles.
Scissor cut.
Type on Path. Paste your type on each line.
Group your text, centered once again inside that green stroke circle
Apply the same Transform on your text.
Expand Transform.
All text is still live.
That’s it.
