Setting themselves the goal of "putting themselves in order," many choose sports clubs as the beginning of a new life, and not in vain. In a society of beautiful, confident and active people, it is easier to control yourself, control food and, of course, play sports. FitCurves clubs are of interest to many girls and women, because they promise to achieve big goals in a short time. What kind of place is this, how are the trainings going on, is it really possible to lose weight in a short time, studying in the gym?
We will study all the information about FitCurves club, reviews of real visitors and employees, after which we will make our resume on whether to attend training in this institution.
About FitCurves Club
If you are interested in the issues of losing weight or transforming your body, then you can’t do without sports in this matter. Diet will allow you to lose weight, but what kind of weight will it be - muscle mass or water? Rather, the second, therefore, in addition to proper nutrition, a certain physical activity is necessary. If you live in a more or less large city, then the choice of an institution where you can go in for sports is not limited to one or two clubs.
One such place is FitCurves Fitness Club. Reviews for this institution are quite different. Thus, in forums and chat rooms, club customers and employees often express their disapproval of the club’s work. On the official website www.fitcurves.org the reviews are only positive, but this is not surprising. Where is the truth, and is she alone?
Fitness for women - FitCurves
Feedback on the idea of ​​the club is very positive. Why do not all girls want to attend ordinary halls where men and women are engaged?
Everything is simple. Not being happy with their appearance, not every lady will want to appear in tight sportswear among fitness goddesses and Apollon athletes. Shameful, embarrassing, and uncomfortable. After all, we think that if we have some kind of imperfection, then it will immediately become the center of universal attention. This is not true, nevertheless it is precisely the unwillingness to “shine” with extra pounds and cellulite that blocks women from exercising in fitness rooms. FitCurves allows you to focus on sports without thinking about others - because only women will be in the hall. No men, and therefore no makeup, uncomfortable clothing and unnatural behavior. This is a huge plus, which favorably distinguishes FitCurves from other institutions of this kind.
How are the workouts
It doesn’t matter what city you live in, the policy and the construction of the club’s training program are the same everywhere, in Yaroslavl, in Volgograd, in Kiev, or in the location of the FitCurves club in Moscow. The reviews are quite positive. The lesson lasts only thirty minutes (something really, and every woman has thirty minutes a day for sure) and make you sweat properly.
In addition, the trainer will not allow you to train on the simulator at a low speed or low load level and will set you a higher speed mode if you decide to “take a shot”. The first trial lesson will be free, it’s also a huge plus - suddenly you don’t like the essence of the lesson, and you decide that this form of training is not for you.
Most often, FitCurves opens in large business centers specifically so that employees of enterprises and offices can work during the break to benefit for the body and spirit. This is another advantage, because it is office workers who lead a sedentary lifestyle, are the target audience of the club.
Club card: is it needed
You can find out about promotions and special offers, class schedules at www.fitcurves.org. Reviews are especially often related to the club card. Is she needed? In fact, its value is rather doubtful. Using the card, you can freeze the subscription, move from one FitCurves club to another, and participate in promotions from the club. That is, all these advantages in other sports facilities are provided by a regular subscription, which is handed to you for free. In the forums, most visitors write that they do not buy a card, despite the persistent persuasion of the administrator.
Those who purchase a membership card admit that it is not needed. If you decide to start training at FitCurves, consider whether you need such a privilege. By all accounts, this is a more unobtrusive way to get a small amount of money from new customers.
FitCurves - large network
Franchising is not always good, for customers, of course, and not for business owners. For example, there are cases when large restaurant or hotel chains, taking advantage of the fame and good fame of one of the institutions, did not at all take care of their image in other places. We are not talking about such unified institutions as the McDonald's or the Radisson Hotel, where they “keep the brand” everywhere and always.
One of the best examples of franchising is FitCurves fitness club. Reviews for the work of the institution do not even vary from city to city, but to clubs located at different addresses of the same city. What is this talking about? About not the most successful management strategy chosen by management. Let's figure it out!
Success Factor # 1 - Employees
Whatever the institution, its face and heart are those who work in it. If a corporate culture is established , employees are sufficiently motivated, then even a low salary will not allow you to come to work in a bad mood.
What do those who decide to work at FitCurves say? Reviews are not the most flattering. First, management often invites clients to work if they have no other employment. After completing special courses, you can become an instructor. Meanwhile, on the forums, many girls complain that even when you get to work, you still continue your internship when the leaders of the FitCurves department allegedly watch and evaluate you. Reviews on the forums indicate that after working for a month or two, conducting classes, you simply can’t get the money, because “they didn’t fit”. So, imagine what it would be like to deal with an instructor who hates work and employers?
Inadequate staff training
Who, in your opinion, can be a coach? A person who has undergone special training and received a medical and sports education, or is it someone who will be taught the necessary movements in a month or two? Agree, everyone can be a coach - you just need to learn a set of exercises. But if the instructor does not know the human anatomy, does not know how certain muscle groups work, will he be effective? In addition, injuries are not uncommon in the gym - starting from the usual muscle strain and ending with something more serious, for example, the leg was crushed by an orbitrek.
A coach who came from the street will not be able to help or even adequately react. This is the second point that is being actively discussed on the forums. Of course, not only former clients get a job at FitCurves club. The reviews indicate that there are many true professionals among the trainers who themselves write the training program and are well versed in the topic.
How staff work is built
What are the responsibilities of trainers? As a rule, this is working with clients, conducting personal and group classes, writing a plan for a training program. But there are interesting revelations from the FitCurves-Yaroslavl forum. The feedback of the trainers indicates that, in addition to the main responsibilities, there is also another mission for the employees. This is attracting new customers. “Logical,” you say. “After all, a good coach is responsible for ensuring that new faces appear in the club.” However, the essence is different - FitCurves employees have to distribute flyers and lure new customers to one-time free training sessions.
According to reviews, if a coach brings few people, then he does not fit into the system and can be fired. Female trainers go out or walk in the center where the club is located and distribute leaflets. This is what many employees complain about.
Training and losing weight: is fitness effective?
FitCurves, reviews of which are very different, most visitors still praise. Clients say that if you combine sports and diet, then in a month from such activities you can lose up to 6 kilograms. Promoting to lose weight also shares from the club. For example, at the moment, everyone who will lose one kilogram of their weight will receive a small cash reward.
Clients like that the work takes place under the supervision of trainers, you are not left to your own devices. In addition, half an hour of intensive training is quite comparable to hour work at the same pace in a regular gym.
Who doesn't fit Fitcurves
Very interesting information is on the forums "FitCurves in our city. Peter" and "FitCurves-Moscow". Feedback from visitors and customers will help identify groups of people who may not like the club:
- You have been practicing for a long time, and you have your own theory about how to conduct training.
- You love solitude and do it yourself.
- You want to deal with people of your age. The club does not make different age groups; fifteen-year-old girls and fifty-year-old women are often engaged in training together. For this reason, the coach adjusts more to the latter, reducing the intensity.
If you are a coach and want to work at FitCurves, you can become a member of the team. It is very good if you have work experience, but without it they can take you - in any case, you will need to undergo training.
However, before you go to work, read carefully the reviews of FitCurves trainers.
And finally
Before you start a “new life” and struggle with yourself and your excess weight, you need to choose a decent club for classes. In any city there are enough gyms, among them a club exclusively for women - FitCurves. Is it good to train there? You can see the official website of the institution - fitcurves.org, read reviews. However, as you yourself understand, there will be no true negative feedback on the site. Study our article and draw your own conclusion. In addition, FitCurves offers all its future customers to attend one free trial lesson - take this opportunity. One workout will allow you to conclude whether the load level and training program are right for you.
