Getting Started

• Located in the heart of main campus.
• Includes the fitness floor with weight and cardio equipment, indoor track, gym courts, pools, climbing wall, racquetball/squash courts, group fitness, and locker rooms.
  

• Located on the medical campus in the Medical Sciences Building, enter the building, and take the staircase on the left by the elevators when you first walk in.
• This is a smaller facility than the Campus Rec Center that offers the fitness floor with cardio and weight equipment, locker rooms with dry sauna, and group fitness.
  

• Siddall Fitness Center, situated on the ground floor of Siddall Hall and adjacent to MarketPointe, offers 5,000 square feet of fitness and wellness space. This facility is exclusively available to residents of Siddall and Calhoun Residence Halls.
• This is a smaller facility than the Campus Rec Center that offers cardio, strength and functional equipment.  The Siddall Fitness Center also offers a turf area, including a push sled. 

• If it has a room 3200-3258, it is in the classrooms above the rec center (you will not use the normal rec center entrance or swipe into the rec). Go to the staircase by Steger and go up. All of the classrooms are there! 
• If it does not have a room #, it is in the rec center. Meet in the Campus Rec breezeway on your first day and look for a sign with your class name. Always remember to bring your UC ID - you will swipe in for class!
  

• Go upstairs for cardio and weight equipment, racquetball courts, group fitness classes, track.
• Go downstairs for climbing wall, gym courts, pools, and locker rooms.
• It’s a big building, feel free to wander or ask for a tour! Don’t be nervous, everyone starts as a beginner. You’ll build confidence as you come.
  

You get UNLIMITED swipes to the rec! Come as many times a day as you would like!

• Both facilities have the most visitors from 5-9 p.m. Try getting an early workout in the morning, at lunch, or by visiting on the weekends to avoid crowds. If you’re looking for an energetic vibe, visit us in the evening.
• Students do not have guest swipes. Guests are $12/day.
• NEVER give someone else your ID to enter the rec. It will get confiscated.
