I’d avoid, staff are bad, equipment is bad (bent bars, weights are everywhere and never put back etc.) It’s always over crowded with people who “lift” but seem to do more reps on their phones than the bench.The pool is not as bad but for the weights I’d avoid at all costs. Easily the worst gym I’ve ever been to in the area.Wish the school would let me not pay for this because it’s not a gym it’s a place for people to socialize.

It's a large university gym facility with pretty much everything anyone needs, what more could you ask for? :)

I only come here for yoga group exercise sessions and the treadmills. Highly recommend yoga with Haley, Kate, and Jo. Treadmills are ok, and I wish that they could hire more yoga instructors to keep up with the demand. I have to set alarms on my phone to sign up for yoga when it opens up because all the spots fill up in minutes. I also wish they could do something about making the weights area more comfortable… seems to be hogged by gym bros and frat dudes…

I can't speak on the pricing or membership since I get free access as a student, but I do really like how this gym has an indoor track. Not something most gyms have.

Huge space, indoor rock wall, with almost every amenity you could think of. Personally I’m not a huge fan of the style treadmills they have but the track is where I do my running. It’s a huge gym so some things get over looked and customer service isn’t a top priority. All in all it’s the best gym I’ve been a part of and happy to be there.
