Curves Workout

[notateechanow 7]

The "new technology" that you referred to has been used in some Curves for a year or two now. It allows you to check in to each machine and will shut off when you've been working out for too long. It costs an extra $5 a month at the Curves here, and not all franchises have them. Another caveat is that your information isn't available yet if you use a travel pass. That's in the working now, but still not ready.....my former boss uses that and looks great. The Curves where I belong doesn't have it, so we have to rely on pushing ourselves.

I'm pretty much in a small town but I figure the Curves here is fairly new so it should be okay, I'm guessing. I just need to get over there!!!

They upgraded our tags to store information when we travel from enter to center, but the places I've visited only have only 8 machines. I took a sheet to my surgeon detailing all of the machines with pictures and he checked off the ones I can use.

I've been a Curve's member for 3.5 years. I love it! I was banded four months ago. I waited 11 days before going back and I skipped the squat machine and the crunch machine for about a month after that. I have lost 36 inches since my surgery so I must be doing something correctly. I go at least four times a week and sometimes 5 or 6. If you go often you get to know the coaches and other members you are working out with and we are great cheerleaders for each other. I am reasonably sure that had I not been a Curve's member before my surgery I would probably have weighed at least 100 lbs more.

I am excited about our Curves getting the new "technology" in the next few months. I am glad to hear that it really works.

I've been to several different Curves around the country while traveling and they do vary a lot in the equipment available, friendliness of the staff, etc. but it is a great way to start the day before a long car drive.
