CougCycle Throwbacks Edition| 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. | SRC 252

To celebrate Family Weekend and as part of UREC's Free FriYAY Fitness classes we invite you to our CougCycle: Throwbacks Edition!

CougCycle is a high-energy, music-based spin class that focuses on the experience, and not the performance on the bike. Have fun and dance the night away one elbow drop at a time.

This is a cardio focused indoor cycling class appropriate for all levels of fitness, no experience is required. The workout is done entirely on the bike, you may set your own resistance, speed, and intensity levels.

InBody Body-Composition Measurement| 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. | SRC Classroom 144

What does your weight really represent? When you step on a scale, you can’t see how much muscle or fat you have—all you see is a number with no context.

Go beyond the scale with the InBody Test, a non-invasive, quick, and accurate body composition analysis that provides a detailed breakdown of your weight in terms of muscle, fat, and water. Get results you can trust so you can reach your health and fitness goals with precision and actionable objectives.
