Curves Circuit Training

I did Curves for about 2 years. It was a great way to get into the gym scene without feeling overwhelmed. I lost about 10 pounds when I was going regularly and sort of watching what I ate. I definitely felt better and put on a good bit of muscle. I especially loved the community that forms since the gyms are small and they really do notice when you aren't there. It keeps you honest about your gym schedule.

However, after a while my body got used to the exercises and even pushing myself through tough workouts I wasn't noticing any additional improvements. That combined with the boredom of doing the same circuit 3-5 times a week for two years enticed me to switch to a bigger gym.

I think it is a great program and a wonderful starting point for a gym. You can get a trial membership at most Curves so if you are thinking about it I would definitely recommend going in and talking to them about a trial to see if it would be a good fit for you.
