UCR Student Recreation Center Review

Check it out. Lots of activities to get involved with.

Thank you for today! It was fun at the SRC floating egg hunt offered to UCR families. My boy really enjoyed the egg hunt, pool, jacuzzi and slime making. Thank you. A UCR mom!

Sometimes the gym is really crowded however everything else is perfect

Very nice facility. Was treated very well by Mary Nguyen.

The UCR Student Recreation Center is without a doubt a massive improvement over it s predecessor. The swimming facilities are open all year round with thermal control for any type of weather. The Physical Fitness facilities are a huge upgrade from the worn down former equipment and the SRC sports an indoor track for cardio training. The student staff and SRC Faculty enjoy what they do and provide quality maintenance without whom, the facilities would never last. However, what warrants a 4 star rating is the size and scale of the upgraded SRC given the price tag all full-time undergrads pay for its amenable services whether they utilize it or not.

Five stars cause the gym itself is fantastic and the facilities are bountiful af and well kept. There's like a dozen squat racks which is such an improvement over literally every other gym I've been to that has like one rack, and that's a huge relief.

The few issues I have with the SRC don't detract from the 5 stars cause the issues generally have to do with the other people that use this gym. Here are a few PSA's for those that need to hear it:

a) Y'all need to learn to put your mf weights away when you're done. Seriously you guys are like in your 20s, pick up after yourselves. good lord.

b) Stop throwing the weights down after a set, literally no one is impressed. There's a difference between dropping them because you're tired and literally throwing them on the ground, you degenerates.

There are more but I've lost interest. In conclusion, in the ~2.5 years I've been going here I've seen the rec center staff slowly stop enforcing the rules and I honestly don't blame them cause the amount of people doing dumb stuff is out of control. I literally saw some dude riding around the rec on a longboard and no one said anything to him.

5/5 tho, I still go all the time

As someone who usually complains about UCR facilities, this one is almost perfect. I wish there was an educational barrier of entry for the gym (like a mandatory 1 time class about equipment etiquette), because it s often packed with people who don t know what they re doing. Either way, best uni gym I ve seen.

One of the best recreational facilities I have ever seen.

This is the best Student Rec Center! State of the Art facility second to none!

Has everything you need! I like this gym a lot. They have fresh towels available every time you need one also there are different towels available for the showers. They have hair dryers, a scale, lockers (you need to bring your own lock), indoor track field, and a fancy fingerprint scanning device when you enter. The bathrooms are also clean. Great place!

You'll find everything you need here (with the exception of a sauna). This is the most well-maintained gym in the inland empire.

They pretty cool. People don't really know how to work fast, but they're trying their best. They're really nice too.

OMG UCR Girls are gorgeous, anyway, the Gym is an absolute blast and the atmosphere is awesome. I enjoyed my visit and I give the SRC team two thumbs up.

Gets crowded in the evening, full of bros, but otherwise a well equipped facility.

From weight training, to the pool, to the basketball court, to the indoor rock climbing. You can find just about everything to be in shape at this facility. This is one of the best thing going on at UCR. Surprisingly, the staff that are all students are really nice and helpful.

Just feel so sad about the badminton court. The super-power fan is always on.

Massive well maintained facility. It makes you want to go there to get fitter.

I love this place! The gym is beautiful and clean. The pool is wonderful. Friendly staff
