SMART WORKOUT AHEAD OF THE CURVE
The Curves women's fitness center in Inglewood has installed state-of-the-art "smart" equipment that gives users instant analysis and feedback during workouts.
Imagine having the world’s most advanced fitness coach at your disposal. This coach customizes workouts based on your body structure and endurance and adjusts each exercise machine’s intensity based on your recent progression or regression. This coach monitors your energy level and range of motion continuously to ensure you are achieving your personal potential. Then the coach automatically computes your workout data to produce a progress report, including the number of calories you burned and 3-D anatomical diagrams to show which muscles you’ve worked and how successfully.
That is the role of the CurvesSmart, a new technology that offers a precision designed workout, moment to moment feedback and progress reports to keep members motivated while they work out. Local Curves are among the first in the nation to feature the equipment.
After a member’s personalized profile is determined by a Curves staff member, the member uses a CurvesSmart ID Tag that is electronically recognized by the monitor at each Curves workout station. It automatically retrieves the member’s workout profile.
The smart monitors indicate: whether her heart rate is in the target range; whether the member is achieving her target intensity level; the range of motion for each repetition; and the number of repetitions. Following the workout, the system produces a progress report that allows the member to see, instantly and in quantifiable terms, her strengths and weaknesses.
The Curves in Inglewood is at 8409 S. 8th Ave., #A-1, Inglewood, 323-971-1382, www.curvesinglewood.com. Brandi Brookens is the owner.
