Does UH Actually Have a Gym? A Deep Dive into Fitness on Campus
So, you're thinking about attending the University of Houston, huh? Good choice! But let's address the burning question: does this place even have a gym? I mean, you can't be expected to survive on pizza and ramen alone, right? Fear not, future Cougar!
UH: More Than Just Books and Beer Pong
Let's clear this up right away: UH absolutely has a gym. Not just one, but multiple! So, if you're picturing yourself bench-pressing your way to a degree, UH has got you covered. They’ve got everything from treadmills that could probably outrun Usain Bolt to dumbbells heavier than your textbook.
But wait, there's more! It's not just about lifting weights and sweating buckets. UH's fitness scene is like a buffet – there's something for everyone. You into yoga? They've got classes. Prefer to dance your way to fitness? Zumba, anyone? Want to climb a wall? Yep, they've got that too. It's like your gym membership, but without the monthly fee (well, sort of – it's included in your tuition, so technically you're paying for it).
