A lot of new and exciting changes have been happening in the Recreation Services Department. One of the biggest changes coming back from winter break that students may have noticed is the new cardio equipment now residing in the Baker Family Fitness Center. ΄σΟσ΄«Γ½ Western is lucky to have been able to set up a contract with a fitness company that allows these machines to be re-evaluated every three years. With the completion of the most recent three-year lease, this allowed for new machines to be offered to our students.<\/p>\n
The new machines by Life Fitness are an enormous upgrade from the machines that were previously leased. Not only are they more appealing to look at, but there have been ergonomic adjustments made to these new models that provide a more natural, and comfortable, workout. In addition to the treadmills, ellipticals, upright and recumbent bikes previously offered \u2013 there are now two power mills, two fluid rowers, and two cycling bikes with attached media stations for a guided workout experience. It is our hope that these new machines are enticing to all students. Whether they be first-time fitness adventurers, or part of the daily workout grind, the new equipment is user friendly for anyone working out with it.<\/p>\n
Recreation Services is also thrilled to launch the IMLeagues online intramural registration platform. Online registration and season management has been one of the highest requested items from our students for the last several years. Our partnership with IMLeagues allows students to see what types of activities they can get involved, and participate in.<\/p>\n
