<p>Wondering about the good balance between study and gym or other physical activity times.
Do you usually do at night after class or what?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>gwood, it’s honestly up to you. It varies from person to person; I know people who get up ridiculously early to workout and I know some people who prefer to go to the gym around 10 PM. Some just like to run around grounds.</p>
<p>The AFC (the main gym; it’s pretty close for first years) has a schedule of classes you can take like pilates, cycling, kickboxing, etc. You could always buy a pass and plan your exercising to that. </p>

<p>That’s the schedule for the summer; it varies from semester to semester but there are a variety of classes. </p>
<p>If you wanted to learn rugby, tennis, volleyball, golf, raquetball, etc., you could take it for credit. I believe they’re under PHYE (physical education). </p>
<p>For me, ideally, I love the idea of being able to get up early in the morning, working out, showering, lounging for a little, then going to class. That happens for like the first two weeks of the semester, and then it ends up being that I go when I have some free time lol; I love my sleep. And coming from high school, you’ll tell yourself that getting up at 8 is nothing compared to high school; you were at school by 8! College is different. Most of the time, you’ll moan and groan at the thought of waking up at 8. ;)</p>
<p>So again, it’s up to you. UVa has enough gyms to accommodate everyone and a beautiful campus so you can run outside and enjoy the weather.</p>
