Let’s Talk About: No Makeup, No Men, No Mirrors: A Curves Experience

Before I begin I’d like to thank Curves International for sponsoring this post.

Are you ready to get #CurvesStrong? Since having my second baby I have had a difficult time motivating myself to workout. Over the last ten months I have thought of every excuse in the world as to why it’s nearly impossible for me to exercise, but honestly, there is no excuse. Exercising is more than getting my body in shape. It’s about my overall mental and physical health. Do you you know that exercise is good way to help alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression? And when it comes to my health, exercising is not an option. The Top 5 reasons I make working out a priority are:

1.) To help prevent my breast cancer from returning

2.) To have energy to get through the day

3.) To be healthy for myself and my children

4.) To relieve excess stress and help regulate my emotions

5.) To have heart health and make my heart stronger

One way I know I can accomplish my health goals is by getting some extra love and motivation from my other mama friends. And luckily for me, I recently had the opportunity to visit a local Curves gym with some of my closest influencer friends and was able to experience firsthand what a workout at Curves would be like!

If you aren’t familiar, Curves® is a one-stop-shop for every woman’s fitness needs. Curves International, Inc. is one of the largest chains of fitness clubs for women in the world and is famous for its 30-minute Circuit with a Coach that works every major muscle group with strength training, cardio and stretching. By enrolling in the Curves Fitness® Program, women are able to participate in a 30 minute, total-body workout on strength training machines. These circuit classes are designed to burn fat, increase strength, and kick start weight loss. Curves® members not only work every core muscle group in just 30 minutes, but they also become a part of a supportive group of empowered women. Could it get any better than this?

And with Curves Complete, women have a fully integrated, personalized weight loss and weight management solution that includes the Curves fitness program, customizable meal plans, and one-on-one coaching and support. I personally love that you can walk into a Curves gym at any time of the day (during business hours) and jump onto any of the machines and get a full workout in only 30 minutes!

Furthermore, you are in a room full of only women, so you don’t have to worry about any extra pressure or self-consciousness from anyone other than women because everyone in the room can relate to your body-like experience! There are no mirrors so you don’t have to worry about how you look. It’s about you and your body and your health. That’s it! You have a coach with you at all times to help you on the machines and to motivate you along. You are only on each machine for 30 seconds before moving on to the next station so just when it starts to hurt and get too hard, you are done! The entire workout goes by very quickly and it’s fun! You face each other while you workout so there is definitely a social aspect that will only help your workout go by fast! And you’ll probably meet some friends along the way! Curves also offers Specialty Classes that combine workout moves for key focus areas like strength, balance and flexibility. And get this, Curves Fitness Members lose an average of 5 pounds over a 20-week period. #ad
