From the reviews
There is a lot of different options at the this gym. I never really took advantage of it until my senior year. Might as well since you're still paying for it, if you are a student. The only critique I would give is they have a clothing requirement.
Modern well equipped gym for beginners and experts. First floor consists of free weights and a basketball court, while the second floor consist of workout machines and a track to run or walk on. A day pass is roughly $10 for non-ewu students.
Friendly staff, a great gym with personal trainers, and an ice skating rink during open skate in the Winter.
Great place, the membership fees are a little high but that's fine since it's the best in Cheney.
Adaptive climbing
University Recreation Center is mentioned for adaptive climbing or paraclimbing — sessions, equipment, or coaching that make the walls climbable for people with disabilities. Offerings like this vary a lot gym to gym and schedules change, so call ahead to ask what's available and when the next session runs.
