Curves?

[steph1505]

Hey everyone! I dont think Ive ever posted in this section before!!

I was just wondering if any of you have been to a curves gym? I have a free trial tomorrow at my local one but I just wondered if anyone had any experiences of them?

Did u like it? From what I gather from the website its very different from an ordinary gym?!

Thanks xxx

I don't use one because I'm into bodybuilding lol but yes, it's quite different. Basically it is coached circuit training (you literally do a 'circuit' between different machines). It is okay for a beginner who wants to get into some kind of physical activity and have like-minded women around BUT (imo) it is not real resistance training and does not offer what produces real results in a gym. My MIL goes and she is older and enjoys it, so it's really more of a social thing for a lot of girls.

Real results come from real lifting. You can see my journal before/after pics and I have my workouts posted. That is, to me, real resistance training.

But you have a free trial so give it a shot.
