Using Your Resources

The staff at the Wellness Center have proved time and time again that they go above and beyond what is expected of a fitness center. Not only are the staff members friendly and personable (swiping your card with a smile upon your arrival to the gym), they also make it a point to ensure that members have the best possible work out experience. If you are relatively new to the Wellness Center, there are a few resources that the staff has added to better serve and inform their members.

Upon entering the Wellness Center, there is a wall in which the staff has attached numerous pictures and diagrams that show different types of toning exercises members can practice. The exercises included on the wall not only include pictures showing members how to do them, there are also step-by-step instructions as to how to perform them as well. The way the staff has compiled the information, makes it easy to get a good toning workout (a work out that one may not have been knowledgeable about getting).

Along with the different types of toning exercises, there is also a list of foods included on the wall. Students may be making mistakes in their fitness goals based on the different foods they are consuming. It is important to eat foods that do not make one tired or sluggish because not only will this affect one’s exercise routine, it could also have negative affects on a student’s academic career. The staff at the Wellness Center is aware of the importance of eating nutritious food, which is why they have included a list of the ‘best foods to eat’. If an individual is making sure to eat well, it will be easier to meet the physical demands an individual faces when working out.

Next time you are in the Wellness Center take a look at the wall (located behind the weight lifting equipment) and become familiar with the information provided. The staff at the Wellness Center is doing a great job providing its members with the tools they need to be the most successful in their fitness goals. As long as the tools are there make sure to take advantage of them!
