Work Out Reservations and Group Fitness Reservations
In an effort to keep you safe, Campus Recreation will be following all CDC, University, State, and City guidelines, which means a limit on the number of Ramblers in Halas at any given time. If you'd like to use Halas, you will need to register for a time to work out or reserve a space in a group fitness class:
- To reserve a time to work out, log into our Member Portal with your LUC UVID at https://campusrec.luc.edu/

During these tough times, being active is more important than ever. Exercise is helpful to stimulate your immune system, enhance your mood, give you a sense of accomplishment, decrease your stress levels, and keep you strong and fit.
Health advocates recommend the following for optimal mental and physical health:
- Maintain a healthy diet and eat regularly
- Set up a schedule for yourself and aim to accomplish a couple of goals each day
- Get enough and try to maintain a sleep schedule
- Exercise!! This doesn't have to be hardcore- just be active!
- stretch several times each day,
- use your own bodyweight or books/household objects for strength training
