To CURVES or Not to CURVES....

That is the question... I am considering Curves in lieu of the really crappy gym I have a membership to but have not been attending. I just wanted to hear opinions from those of you that have used Curves... Good Points/Bad Points... Thanks.

I'm a Gold's junkie......but that's just me!

I am pre-op but I was a member of curves a couple of years ago. I really liked it. I only stopped attending because of their limited schedule (it was hard to find a time I could go) and of course $$$. If you are a person who likes change Curves is not for you. Curvies is a circuit workout so you do the same machines in the same order every time. For some it can be mundane but I like the consistency of it.

Hi Modean, We were told at our nutrition and exercise consultation that it was ok to start out, but it wasn't something that we should do long term. Something about the resistance/weights. It always stays the same. I had wanted to join Curves too, but I'm not sure now. Kim

Hello Tami: I have been to many gyms and I also gave Curves a try, sometime last year before my surgery. I have to say I prefer the other gyms since the routine at curves is mundane and you will see the results faster from the other gyms. LA Fitness or Golds is pretty good. Good Luck Mary

I joined Curves with a friend back in October of last year. We quit going in January because the same ole routine gets old and we werent seeing any results. Candy

Hey girlie I did curves and hated it it was very boring and stale I like to change up so that my body doesnt get used to one certain thing good luck sweetie love candy

Hi Tami, I haven't tried Curves, but that was only because my next door neighbor in my old neighborhood said she didn't like it (and proceeded to give me a laundry list of reasons why). I am a member of LA Fitness - they have great hours (usually most locations are open until 11:00pm), they have nice, clean locker rooms, and they have a great variety of classes. Some locations also have nice indoor pools, and your membership is good at any location. Good luck - hope LA Fitness isn't the really crappy gym you currently use! Hugs, Ginger

ok well i will be the odd ball ...I LOVED IT !!!! the only reason i stoped was time ...I was trying to go on my lunch and then i never really got a lunch so i had to quit ...But i loved it ..You got a good work out in 30 mins ....And for me that is great cuase i dont have time ( i know make time but that is hard ) and i loved the people ..Yes it is the same old same old but if you go the same time of day you get to know the peopel and you end up talking your 30 mins away ...I loved it and would do it again in a heart beat !!!!
