Gym culture?

Can someone tell me how busy UMich’s gyms are? I’m a transfer student who loves exercising, but I’m usually very busy. I would like to be able to go to the gym at any time of day, and not have to wait 20 minutes for machines.

Thanks!

Not to scare you but our gyms/rec centers are awful. The IM building is currently closed and while the CCRB got new equipment, it’s still terribly cramped and inadequate for how many students try to use it. The buildings are incredibly old and outdated. It’s pretty sad for how nice the rest of the school is.

I have to agree with Ftasquirrel. I visited the University of Oregon in July, and their recreational facility was RIDICULOUS!!! Michigan needs to invest some money on this front. I think it will happen sooner or later…hopefully sooner.

Darn…Thanks for providing an honest opinion!

The facilities are adequate mind you, but considering this is Michigan, they should be much better.

The IM update (open next Fall) should make it much better, though not like a completely new building.
