Whether you go with a friend or on your own, take a break from school work and break a sweat in Jacobs Fitness Center.
It is easy to feel the pressure from schoolwork and midterms, but did you know that working out is a great stress reliever? Exercising is good for the mind and the body.
Jacobs Fitness Center encourages students to become physically active…and for free. It is centrally located on campus and opens at the crack of dawn.
Besides a regular weight room equipped with all the essentials, Jacobs also offers classes that meet the interests and needs of any participant. For a small fee, you can enjoy group exercises like kickboxing, spinning and pilates.
If you want to separate from the group exercise and focus more on the internal, mind-body classes like karate and yoga can meet your fancy.
Take a dip in the Olympic sized indoor pool during designated recreational swim or play basketball during the open court. For a list of these times, visit the Jacobs Fitness Center calendar.
Tips for working out:
1. Drink plenty of water before, during and after exercising—you don’t want to cramp up.
2. Don’t do more weight than you can handle—pulling a muscle can be painful
3. Don’t be afraid to ask a worker/instructor operate any machinery or how to do an exercise
4. Get into a routine
5. Have fun!
