There is absolutely no underestimating the importance of being and staying fit. To help improve the health, wellness, and satisfaction of University patrons, UC campus recreation centers continually seek to provide the best in fitness and sporting resources for their members. And, best of all, for nominal fees, the conveniently located facilities and services are available to all faculty and staff.
Working out at a campus recreation center can enhance your physical and mental well-being. Expending energy actually helps to create more energy, providing that much-needed boost to help you attack the challenges of the day. Likewise, the release of negative energy during physical activity leads to significantly lowered stress levels.
The key to fitness is the balance of mind, body, and spirit. For UC faculty, staff, students, and alumni, membership in a campus recreation center is a portal to professional staff, resources, and activities that can help improve the health and quality of your life.
For more information, contact your campus recreation center for membership options, and to arrange a personalized tour of facilities. A list of UC’s recreation center websites is available online.
