Get fit at The Rec

The Student Recreation Center has a lot of fitness offerings to

help you on your way to better health. In addition to the large

variety of strength and cardio equipment available, The Rec

provides group exercise programs as well as fitness assessments and

personal training to help you start out on the right foot.

The Rec Center is filled with over 120 pieces of cardio or

strength training equipment to keep you healthy, fit and strong.

All equipment is state-of-the-art and less than a year old.

You’ll find treadmills, climbers, bicycles (upright and

recumbent), rowing machines, stepmills, and elliptical machines to

keep your heart pumping in our cardio areas. Our strength areas are

filled with the latest in selectorized, plate-loaded and

free-weight machines and stations. Additionally, you can check out

a fitness ball, medicine ball, jump rope, or weight belt to help

you on your way. Our Fitness Desk is staffed with a strength and

conditioning attendant who can help you learn new exercises, serve

as a spotter, or teach you about a piece that you’re

unfamiliar with. Take advantage of their knowledge to increase your

own.

The group exercise schedule is filled with a variety of

strength-based, cardio-based, and mind/body-based classes to help

you on the road to better health. Class offerings include step,

cycling, kickboxing, yoga, pilates, lifting, sports conditioning

and more. If you haven’t yet taken advantage of our classes,

check out a class schedule poster or take a pocket-sized schedule

to keep with you. We offer a variety of class times in an effort to

accommodate your busy schedule. For more information about the

classes, or to find out what classes may work best for you, consult

focus is on you. Meet with someone one-on-one to help you with your

own goals and needs. Training appointments are scheduled

individually with a highly qualified personal trainer.
