CURVES is the world's leader in women’s fitness with over four million members in 90 countries. Ideal for the busy, time-challenged lady, Curves offers a 30-minute workout designed specifical­ly for women that is fun, fast and safe.

A Curves workout combines the three components essential for fitness, flexibilit­y and weight loss; incorporat­ing strength training for every major muscle group, cardio, plus stretching.

The programme works to maintain a high metabolic rate that allows for continual weight loss and maintenanc­e.

University studies show that the Curves programme burns up to 500 calories in each 30-minute workout. Women who didn't think they could get fit will amaze themselves at Curves.

Strength training is essential to build muscle and protect bones.

Studies show that strength training can help fight the effects of osteoporos­is, arthritis and other debilitati­ng diseases.

A 30-minute Curves exercise puts enough stress on the bones to stimulate the osteo- blast cells to make more bone tissue.

In older women, it slows the rate of bone loss – a very important benefit even to those who may have been diagnosed with osteoporos­is.

Curves appeals to the everyday women, many of whom haven't set foot in a gym in years.

The environmen­t is not intimidati­ng and non-judgmental – it's friendly and fun for women of all ages, shapes and sizes.
