The UREC Report

Feeling motivated to try something new? Go for it! Sometimes trying new things comes with messing up a little. Having the courage to put yourself out there is a thing to be proud of and we want our members to know that it is okay to mess up. It is okay to not know all the details before trying something new. We're all in this together.

As part of our You Belong campaign, we want to directly share the ways we are working to help folks feel more connected and cared for. On our You Belong Website, UREC members will find highlights of our current efforts to ensure our communities' belonging.

In recognizing areas for growth and to continue improving, we have also included a form where UREC members can provide us feedback on ways we could be more inclusive. We welcome all feedback that will support this campaign.

We are very excited about the instillation of four new racks on the strength floor! We intentionally reconfigured this space to provide a more inclusive experience that allows for more people to be moving at one time.

These racks support squats, bench press, shoulder press, pull ups, deadlifts, lunges and a host of other movements.

Here are a few reminders on how to utilize this space:

• When utilizing the racks, keep your workout to 30 minutes.
• Store all items in lockers. No items may be stored on the floor.
• Control the weight to the ground.
• Re-rack your weights.

Interested in knowing more info on how to use these racks? Consider taking our PT Workshop: Learn to Lift II on 2/9.

Students, catch a ride to the mountains with UREC's SnoVan! We offer rides every weekend during winter quarter to Crystal Mountain Resort or Stevens Pass Resort. Rides are $7. Register for your ride on our website.
