Gainesville is in Florida, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Gainesville follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Decent gym with some of the necessities, some basic equipment should be present however which isn't, and machinery is old and needs renovation.

I can't really speak much on facilities but if you ever plan on playing Intramural Sports under their authority don't even think about it. They have a weird condescending behavior about themselves, they are extremely egotistical often going on weird power trips (especially supervisors and referees), and they completely escalate situations further past what it needs to be. It reaches a point where it doesn't even feel like u can enjoy playing sports anymore. If you want to play a sport join a regional Gainesville league that is more serious and has better standards.

Disappointed with Miscommunication I called ahead to confirm that I could get a day pass for $15 and was assured that all I needed was my ID. I wasn’t looking for a membership as I’m here visiting faculty and I told them that. However, when I arrived, I was denied entry and told that I needed a university associate to sponsor me. If I had been informed of this upfront, I would have brought my relative (a faculty member) with me. They could have also easily looked this connection up online honestly. The lack of clear communication was frustrating and seems various faculty aren’t informed of the rules. I hope the gym can make this right by honoring the original information I was given.

Wonderful place to work out. Very very small gym for the population of students, but students go to the bigger gym. I recommend getting there early so you don't have to wait in line for each exercise. Place is lacking some standard equipment such as a proper pulldown and the equipment itself can be upgraded.

I am extremely happy with the fitness classes offered here at UF. I have been using this facility since I started graduate school in 2021, and, by far, my favorite classes are Kickboxing, Total body, and Cycle. The instructors are knowledgeable, motivational, and excited about teaching, and thanks to them, my energy levels and overall health has improved. Go Gators!
