They have a great interval training program. Each interval consists of a minute of running, a minute of weight training, a minute of biking, and so on, and then 15 minutes of solid ab work. It’s chaos running around to the different machines— the music blasting and your trainer shouting at you like a marine drill sergeant. Circuit Works is a definite ass-kicker, if that’s what you’re looking for.
One day I was struggling through some leg-lifts and the woman next to me said, “Come on, you can do it! I’m the new girl in the class!” I looked at her and said, “Hey, I was the new girl five months ago! This is hard.” There we were—different sizes—running and panting. We were just at different spots on the road. The relationship you have with your body is forever, and you have to love that body, whether you’re being disciplined and healthy or having a baby and enjoying a lot of ice cream.
