The New McGinley Fitness Center

This past Monday, October 15th, the new fitness center opened in the basement of the McGinley Center.  As an avid gym-goer, I was very excited.  This new facility was created in addition to the Lombardi Center, which includes the weight room, squash courts, some treadmills, ellipticals, and stationary bikes and the fieldhouse with an indoor track, basketball courts, and tennis courts.  

The McGinley Fitness Center holds 3,800 square feet of cardio space which includes brand new treadmills, ellipticals, and stationary bikes.  It also has a dance studio and a spin cycle room, in which yoga classes, Zumba, and spin classes will be offered.  

The increase in space and machines is more accommodating to the number of students that utilize the gym.  Each of the cardio machines also has a TV screen and an iPod cable in order to control your music on the screen.  This new center has greatly improved my experiences at the gym and made my workouts much more enjoyable!
