Tutorial Videos for the Weight and Cardio Machines

The spring 2021 SPSC-256 Health Promotion, Education, & Behavior class, taught by Professor Nicci Whalen, has created tutorial videos for the weight and cardio machines in the upper deck of the Steven Johnson Fitness Center. The class hopes to promote exercise in a safe and manageable manner for students, faculty, and staff. These videos will help limit barriers that come with entering the Fitness Center such as feeling comfortable and having background knowledge on how to use the equipment.
