Specialized Equipment & Knowledgeable Fitness Consultants
No matter what your fitness level, you can develop your strength, cardio and agility at a northvanrec weight room. With a fitness membership, you have access to 10 weight rooms at 6 different locations. We can give you the help you need to get started from a weight room orientation to a lifestyle checkup, fitness testing, a personal fitness program, or highly specialized training to fit your individual needs.
Check out our weight room hours and weight room policy. At all our weight rooms, we have free weights, as well as strength and cardio equipment. See the chart below for a list of the specialized equipment at each facility.
