Quick Fit PicksWe have dozens of stress busting activities. Here are a few of our favorites.

Tai Chi Tai Chi reduces stress, promotes both physical and mental health, and creates mind/body/spirit alignment.

Yoga & Meditation Learn to relax, become more flexible and reduce stress by combining intermediate-level yoga exercises with guided breathing and medi-tation techniques.

Capoeira A unique Brazilian art from that simultaneously brings together power, mental balance, physical conditioning and self defense.

Mat Pilates This class uses a series of controlled movements engaging your body and mind to improve flexibility and strength without building bulk.

Massage Massage therapy promotes relaxation, helps relieve sore muscles and back pain, and enhances athletic performance.

Group Cycling If you need sweat in your workout, try this fun, mind-blowing indoor cycling workout fueled by music that motivates.

Basketball Hoops heaven: seven courts, three gyms and tons of open rec hours.

News of foreclosures,

bankruptcies and bailouts

have become a regular – and

stressful – part of life. But

while the world’s troubled

financial markets spin out of

control, there remains an investment with a

guaranteed positive return: your health. Following

a regular fitness routine will pay dividends almost

immediately in reduced stress, better sleep, increased focus, and improved energy levels. You’ll also find opportunities to

make social connections with friends and co-workers while working out – a secondary but

equally valuable benefit. What are the upfront costs

of this investment? Students pay only $10 per

semester, and UC Berkeley faculty & staff members are

eligible for a free 30 day trial. We’re certain you’ll find

that the return on investment works in your favor.

No classes. No sign ups. Just time for you to lift, run, play, swim and sweat. Please note that Cal Rec Club membership is required to participate in Open Recreation.

BasketballHoops heaven: seven courts, three gyms and tons of open rec hours.

Cardiovascular Equipment We’ve got treadmills, stairmasters, elliptical trainers, rowing machines, stationary bikes, and more. Our machines – over 100 and counting – are there for you whenever we’re open; find them at the RSF and at the Strawberry Canyon Rec Area.

Racquet SportsTennis, Racquetball, Handball, Squash, Badminton or Table Tennis; whatever the sport, we’ve got a court for you. Racquetball, Handball, Squash, Badminton and Table Tennis are available at the RSF; tennis courts are located throughout campus – for locations visit www.recsports.berkeley.edu/tennis.

TracksHit the track at Edwards Stadium/Goldman Field – an eight lane, Olympic-class track located just west of the RSF. Or, take in stellar views of the bay as you run on our dirt track at the Golden Bear Rec Center.

TrailsJust behind the Strawberry Canyon Rec Area the “Fire Trail” awaits hikers and runners. This seven mile (roundtrip) trail twists its way up through Strawberry Canyon, offering views of the Campanile, the Golden Gate Bridge and Mt. Tamalpais. The trail starts at the SCRA parking lot and follows Centennial Drive for a short way before veering deeper into the canyon. Note: Use this trail wisely – take water, bring a friend, and use only during daylight hours.

Swimming4 pools and 32 lanes mean plenty of opportunity for rec swimming. More detail on our pools:

Spieker PoolWorkout in the same pool used by the men’s and wom-en’s swim teams: 18 lanes, 25 yards, 79-80 degrees F.

Golden Bear PoolThis 25 yard, six lane pool – maintained at a comfor-table 80 degrees – is ideal for fitness training or lap swimming.

Hearst North PoolMarble decking? Colonnaded Nymphs ringing the pool? Sounds like a bacchanalian fantasy, but actu-ally this is a 33 1/3 yard, four lane pool that sits on the second floor of the Phoebe Hearst Gymnasium. Designed by Julia Morgan in 1927, it is one of UC Berkeley’s most significant buildings.

Strawberry Canyon PoolThe natural beauty of Strawberry Canyon provides the backdrop for our combo lap swim/rec pool. Four lanes are dedicated to lap swimming – the rest is for play. Open April through October.

Weight RoomsOur three RSF weight rooms total 8,500 square feet and are equipped with Cybex® machines, Cybex® VR2 stations, a complete free weight set-up, Iron Grip® and Tri Bar® dumbbells, adjustable benches, Olympic squat racks, Gravitron® pull-up stations and way more.
