From the reviews

I have been a member at almost every gym in Ogden. There is no better gym than WSU's. They have bumper plates and racks for Olympic style lifts, two running tracks, wall balls, kettle bells, and everything you can think of for the "average" gym patrons.

★★★★★ — Jacob, May 2018

Weber State Army ROTC had a new Instructor onboarding and he and I, the Admin for the department, received the grand tour of Swenson Gymnasium. It was very thorough and informative. There is soooo much available in this facility and all of it is for the betterment of our health.

★★★★★ — Jane, Jun 2022

Always clean when I go in. Never had a negative interaction with staff or patrons. Wide variety of equipment to use. There is a lower track and a upper track to run on.

★★★★★ — Dallan, Sep 2023

Jake and Eric (two of the employees of the gym) were so polite and kind when I approached them with questions regarding the gym. The manager Is also very professional. Best well kept gym I’ve been in.
