Weight Room/Exercise Room updates

I wanted to keep you all updated on how the exercise room and weight room are being updated. Nearly 45 new pieces of aerobic equipment are being moved into the existing weight room along with some new weight racks - I claimed the existing lifting platforms for usage at the boathouse.

The old exercise room has a brand new floor and almost all of the existing weight racks are being moved into that area. In addition to being air conditioned there will be 12 ergs on slides along the mirrored back wall.

What does this mean? It means we'll have to do an excellent job of managing our space, making use of the 3rd floor of the boathouse as a training site, and keeping the tanks as an excellent work area. We gain the use of an improved general cardio facility and improved weight area but please don't mistake the intensity of an elliptical machine compared with an ergometer.

Adaptability!
