Q. I’ve heard it is impossible to get on equipment because it is so busy. Why is this?
A. While it is true that the Fitness Center is a busy place, there are always times when equipment is available. During peak hours (after 5pm) you may have to wait to use a piece of cardio equipment, however, there are time limits so that we can allow more individuals to use the equipment. We hope that this will keep everyone happy. You can always try adjusting your workout time to non-peak hours.
