If you're gonna expel gas, at least do everyone else here a solid and not crop-dust. For real though. Kinda hard to lift that barbell with several plates with a haunting aroma in the air.- Don't bring a bag out on the pool deck. We WILL find you. And we will tell you to put it in a locker. If you wanna know why, ask the huge sign in front of the entrance to the outdoor pool.
Nice place to work out. The outdoor pool is great when it's open.
Champaign CountyApril 5, 2012The ARC (Activities and Recreation Center) was originally built in 1971 but opened in August 2008 as one of the largest on-campus recreation facilities in the country!
A gym with a climbing wall, 2 pools and sauna... can’t beat that
Ladies, if you plan on showering here bring your own hair dryer. None work in the locker room and ARC no longer replaces nonfunctional ones.
- Don't come to the outdoor pool when it's 60 degrees out. We'll worry something is wrong with you
- The treadmills on the main floor facing the rock wall have fans!
run on the treadmills overlooking the basketball courts and enjoy watching how good people aren't at basketball
Remember your icard before running across campus if you want to get in.
If youre up for a hard but motivating workout, take Pedal Pop with Paula!
Ladies, don't be intimidated by all the bros in the weight room.
Lauren MatthewsMay 15, 2013Make sure you charge your phone before coming. No outlets on deck. My bad......
Parking is unmetered until 8:15, so work out in the morning!
If you go in the morning, The Man Cave doesn't smell so bad.
