Corpus Christi Texas December 2002 - A new womens fitness center has opened three locations in Corpus Christi. Curves for Women® is a 30 minute fitness and weight-loss center and is the fastest growing fitness franchise in the world.
Curves® is a unique concept in the exercise service industry. They provide both exercise and weight-loss guidance in the same location. Company founder Gary Heavin says, Before Curves®, towns with populations of less than 50,000 did not have exercise facilities designed for women. Our unique circuit allows us to provide a quality facility in under 1,000 square feet. He adds, Sam Walton brought discount shopping to small town America. Weve brought quality to womens fitness.
The facility is built around a breakthrough in exercise a truly complete workout in just half an hour. The Curves® circuit is a system of exercise that alternates hydraulic resistance machines with aerobic recovery stations. As you move around the circuit, enjoying the music and being motivated by an instructor, you perform both a cardiovascular and strength training workout at the same time. You end with a stretching routine. This thirty-minute total workout burns as much as five hundred calories. Because youre moving fluid rather than weights, its safe for any age or condition.
Local owners, Pat OBrien and Lynn Bird say, When you diet alone, 40% of the weight you lose is muscle. Muscles are the engines of our bodies that require fuel. If you drastically lower your bodys energy needs each time you diet, you will always gain your weight back. The key to permanent results is lean muscle. When a woman loses twenty pounds with us, it is predominantly body fat. Strength training protects and increases lean tissue while raising metabolism. The Curves® workout is strength training women will do.
Curves® on-sight weight-loss guidance program is the first international program to blend exercise and diet. Simply dieting to lose weight does not work over the long haul. People know that you must also exercise for lasting results. Curves for Women® is the first program to meet both these needs in the same place for the same price.
Owner, Pat OBrien says, Were winning the weight-loss war. A thirty minute total workout, in a female friendly environment, complete weight-loss guidance, makes health and fitness an achievable goal. Our $29 monthly fee makes it a great value.
