The More You Go, the Less Personalized Your Treatment

Curves for Women is the largest chain of franchised fitness centers in the world with over 8000 locations. They are small facilities with hydraulic resistance machines that are arranged so that you move from machine to machine on a timed interval. There are 8-12 pieces of equipment in the circuit that target specific body parts. The circuit moves you from station to station and is directed by music and taped instruction. You are meant to go at a quick pace to keep your heart rate up. Curves has helped me tighten up my flab, but it does get boring doing the same routine each time I go in.
