Stay Fit!

Hi! I'm David Todd, a rising-Senior Computer Science and Theatre Double major here and I will also be an Orientation Advisor for the Summer of 2011! There is already loads of information about the ERC listed above, including its Indoor and Outdoor pools, multiple Gymnasiums, a 2-level Weight Room, Cardiovascular Equipment room and much more. But if you're trying to start going to the gym and you have no idea what you are doing, it can be dangerous!

The ERC provides FREE Weight Fitness orientations. In just an hour, you can learn how to use all 400+ pieces of Cardio and Strength training equipment that are housed in the ERC, SPH and Ritchie Coliseum! You will learn how to use them safely and effectively so you don’t waste your time or hurt yourself learning!

This Orientation program can be for Private or Semi-Private groups (up to 3 people) or larger groups of up to 20 of your friends! Usually groups are accommodated from 9-11am on Weekdays and Sunday afternoons and evenings. Visit www.crs.umd.edu to sign up for your Orientation!

After the Orientation and you’re still feeling lost? Personal Training from certified trainers is available at the ERC and packages can also be purchased through the www.crs.umd.edu website! These sessions are ideal for one-on-one time with a trainer to design a fitness program specifically for you; they will work with you during the sessions and help you feel comfortable completing the program on your own after they’re over!

Stay fit! :)
