Your student fees hard at work. Ok climbing area, the setters are really enthusiastic and do a really good job of utilizing a smaller space. The power lifting area is awesome. Lockers fill up quickly; if you want to rent one get there right when semester starts or before if possible.

I went with some of my co-workers who are all college students to the CSU Rec Center. This facility is so immaculate! It is so beautiful and well put-together! I really enjoyed my time here

The evening is the best time if you like to enjoy solitude while you work out. Seems like there are a lot of pleasant students at CSU compared to other Universities where people make fun of you if you are newer to the gym scene.

When I first came to this rec center at the beginning of last semester, I weighed over 290 pounds. I was at the end of my rope and fearing a life with dozens of health problems. That is, until I came here. I have since gone down 130 lbs in the past 6 months thanks to the exceptional staff of the CSU Rec Center! I am in the prime health of my life thanks to this place and the amazing variety of programs & machines openly available to everyone. I cannot recommend this place enough. Go there, check it out.

One of the best place at CSU. In the middle of the school workload, you need to balance yourself and CSU Rec Center is one of the options. If you want to enjoy the peaceful time at the SPA/Pool please come in the really early in the morning. In addition to that, CSU Rec center has the program family day from Friday to Sunday, you can bring the family member for free.

Great facility and amenities. Im curious how the basketball floors are kept? People seem to often get hurt from slipping.Also, theres often No face towels available signs up for hours on end and Im not sure if theres a laundry cycle or routine? But, just some minor inconveniences. I would assume theres enough staff? Not gonna make any pressumptions though.

Tons of machines and equipment. It can get very crowded though. The best time to go is between classes. The worst time to go is probably around 6-8pm. Blows most $30 a month gyms out of the water and its free for me as student. Also Ive had a lot of fun times lifting with my roommate here.

I graduated from CSU and now am an employee here. If I made a list of things that makes me glad I am a CSU alumnus, the Rec Center would certainly be amongst the top 3. Clean facility, cheerful staff, well maintained equipments and much more than just work out facilites for members.

If you are coming here and serious about fitness, I recommend coming in the mornings because the busy times are after 4pm every day.The facility is huge and there are almost always classes going on in the morning and evening so theres something for everyone.If you prefer to do your own thing, there a ton of machines available for weight training and various types of cardio. Also a pool with a few lanes, sauna, several basketball courts, and a boxing room.

Great place to come and workout. The place is always clean and is filled with many staff members to help with any questions. The machines are up to date even though more are needed to occupy the high capacity of people that come here. The pool is a great place to cool down and have a swim but its not big enough for the amount of people who come here.

This is a great gym to be fair. Sometimes a little full but easily worth it, especially for the low price.

This facility was average (between policies and gym equipment) but after rolling out the olympic lifting area, this is one of the best gyms in noco. Only pitfall being the abysmal parking that deters me from being a member here full time.

Review №24

Its interesting that Ive been accepted, registered for classes, got my student ID and live in town, yet the rec center wont let me in without paying a daily fee because my classes havent started yet. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth about the university system. A system which wont extend any courtesy to students theyve already accepted, and asks struggling students to pay even more than they already have to. Great way to keep students active and healthy in the summer...

CSU has lots of early gym goers, for sure. I only wish they had cleaning areas to sanitize the workout machines.

Review №47

I lift weights so Ill discuss that exclusively. I wish there were more bench and squat racks also there isnt a very comfortable area to deadlift. But there are some great machines I havent used in a long time like standing calf raise and chest supported bar row and rear flye. Great place to lift. Just think there are WAY too many cardio machines and not enough free weight area.

Nice rec center at the University. The equipment is relatively new. They have 4 basketball courts, a running track, a climbing wall, and a YUGE amount of exercise equipment and free weights.

If it wasnt for the country music playing at a work out place it would be five stars, but listening to people wail about dirt roads, cold beer, and how she left him totally kills the mood.

Generally crowded all day open to close. Great equipment though.

Mi
Review №52

Half the size it needs to be for the number of people at this school. Not enough squat racks, not enough lanes in the pool, no Olympic lifting allowed, no deadlift platforms, and the plates arent round. Closed for football games as an extra screw you from the stadium no one wanted. Go to Raintree or Miramont instead (jk the school forces you to pay for a membership even if you dont want it).

Tons of different machines, but not as many useful ones as local gyms. For example, they only have one lying leg curl machine unlike my old gym which had 2 standing leg curl sitting leg curl and lying leg curl machine.
