Ambler Rec Center is currently still in their "COVID" layout of all the gym equipment. Because of this, the free weights are placed in an indoor hockey arena in the back of the gym while the bikes, treadmills, and other machines are in the open area in the front of the gym facing the windows. While some of these treadmills are used, many bikes, ellipticals, etc. go unused much of the time. This is inconvenient to those going to Ambler as it forces us to go to the back of the rec center to use free weights only to be left with limited space to lift and two pairs of each dumbbell weight. On top of the limited number of dumbbells, there are 10 squat and bench press racks in the entirety of the gym. For a university of 25,000 students, this is entirely too small of a number and leaves many students not able to get the workout they would like to get when they attend the gym. The students of KU would like a free weight section in the front of the gym with plenty of weights to choose from, more squat racks, and an overall better layout of the conditioning equipment not placed in the front area.
