As I have spent most of the last 6 weeks north of the Mason Dixon Line, at Curves On Monroe in Madison, WI, I have learned so much about exercise and health, both of which I usually turn a deaf ear.
First, the machines are MADE for women, which is the big selling point. Then they are designed to work two muscles at a time, not just one, as the traditional weight training does.
Then, at Curves On Monroe, the environment is not traditional either. It is loaded with green plants, a resident bird, and a dog or two spattered in.
This green plants makes Curves On Monroe, truly GREEN. The plants give back the oxygen and cleans the air from the carbon dioxide that the women exhale as they exercise.
Lucy, the resident Cockatiel, chirps and chatters adding to that atrium environment.
I have been working here while the owner goes out in the community and does some markting. I have made some great friends here, and look forward each time I get the chance to come. Of course, it would be soooo much better if it was a paying job, but hey, I am adding it to my resume, if I ever need to get a real job (chuckle)!
So if you are ever in the neighborhood, stop in, bring your dog, chat, workout, and make a memory with me.
