Compare Contours Express Franchise to Curves for Women Franchise

THE #1 REASON YOU SHOULD CHOOSE CONTOURS EXPRESS:

Remember this word: "PLATEAU"

The dictionary defines the word "Plateau" as a highland area of fairly level land separated from surrounding land by steep slopes. The common usage as a verb is "to Plateau" meaning to climb a steep incline in order to reach a flat area and then be unable to climb further. In other words, you have gotten all you are going to get. To Plateau is what happens when you use hydraulic equipment to exercise. Many doctors agree that to truly be fit you must do exercise on real weight-bearing equipment like the machines that are especially designed for Contours Express members.

Contours Express uses Real Weights for Real Results, We NEVER Use Hydraulics which means at Contours Express you will NEVER Plateau!

So, what does this "No Plateau" mean for Contours Express franchisees?

It's a gym business desire that few companies other than Contours Express can achieve, HIGHER MEMBER RETENTION, which means less costly turnover. Women who see results will also tell their friends. Weights = Results = Loyalty. It's is that simple.

Curves Members Come To Contours Express!

We also know from similar stories most of our franchisees tell about a woman who worked out at Curves, hit her Plateau, became frustrated, moved to Contours Express and is now seeing REAL RESULTS.

So, Why Contours Express versus Curves? This Sums it Up:

Contours Express is The Better Idea in Women's Gyms, because we use Real Weights for Real Results and Never Hydraulics. Contours Express Machines are Especially Designed and Sized for Women allowing an Effective 29-Minute Express Workout for Women at Any Fitness Level that will NEVER lead to the "Plateau Effect."

• Smaller, leaner and more efficient operation helps you succeed.
• We have learned from their mistakes, and built a better system.
• We have many top locations available.
• Our equipment is vastly better than theirs.
• So much more...
