My husband and I enjoy our time at Memorial Park. Memorial Park is a beautiful park located in the…read moreHouston area. I haven't lived in Texas long and I don't live close to this park, but any chance we get, we go here. It's more than a city park with a nice mixture of trails and recreational spaces. It's a great park to walk, run, cycle, or simply stroll. Sometimes we go for a stroll in the evening after we've been to a nearby restaurant. There are places to sit and people watch if that's your thing. There are also lots of nature trails as well. And there is no shortage of restrooms, which is a plus for a park this size.

When I entered the Rec for the first time as a freshman, I was a boy. Four years have passed, and…read morenow I am a man. How did I do it? Hard, hard work: 100 push ups, 100 sit ups, 100 squats, 10k run. Every SINGLE DAY. When I became tired, I relied on the plentiful recreational equipment: table tennis tables, pool tables, basketball courts (indoors and outdoors), racquetball courts, and swimming pools. Inspired by Antonio Banderas, I also enrolled in LPAP dance classes and unleashed my sexy side. But I never stopped working out. NEVER. When my legs got tired, the Rec had hot showers and gym mats for stretching. Water fountains, vending machines, and even kombucha are readily available for recovery. In the summer months, the pools are a great reprieve. And as always, the equipment, towels, and facilities are squeaky clean. If you come to the Rec every day for four years, I guarantee you will see results. You may go bald. You may become a superhero. You might get your Nod bod. And you will certainly feel infinitely healthier than all the people couch potato-ing in their dorms.

Being an employee here, I feel a slight bias to praise the facility…read more The rec center is the heart of Rice University. While it is not the biggest gym I've ever seen (especially when compared to those gyms at UT Austin), it does have really nice facilities and really cool people! If you are a student at Rice, your membership here is included in your tuition. If you are a community member, it will be really difficult to get a full membership here,but you can always ask someone to guest pass you in! The equipment here are pretty new and complete. Whether you are a pro/bro weight lifter or a newbie who just wanna gain a bit more muscle, you will feel right at home. With 2 basketball courts and a lot of racquetball/squash courts, you can also get your fair share of "balling" action here. The only problem with the rec is its "rush hour" aka 5-6PM every weekday. I guess everyone on campus all have the exact same idea to work out right before dinner (... this problem is especially bad after new years or at the beginning of the semester, since people seem to set "resolutions" and whatnot), and the rec can get really packed. So my tip is definitely avoid that hour and come at night or early afternoon! Overall, rec is a fun place and I love working here. Woohoo.

I come here so much that it's time this gym gets an updated review! The UTHealth gym They recently…read moreupdated with new cardio machines as well as new weight machines. The workers are always friendly, and the gym has a lot of options to be active: basketball courts, tennis courts, swimming pool, cardio area (stationary bikes, row machines, stair masters, treadmills, elliptical, etc), weight machines, free weights, stretching mat as well as rack, and a group fitness studio that doubles as an area for stretching and floor exercises. There's a locker room with showers too. The hours are still okay-- open early on the weekdays at 5:30 AM and 8 AM on Saturdays but not until 10 AM on Sundays. They close at 10 PM on weekdays and 8 PM (the bummer!) on weekends. A few things to note: - open to anyone who works (or trains/studies) in the med center, just bring your badge - the pool is heated (great for winter, but you don't have that ice cold refreshing pool to jump into in the summer!). No lifeguard, but there's a super shallow end and the majority of the lanes are 4' 7" or so deep. - bring your own lock for the lockers (they have free daily use or you can rent for longer term with a fee) - they close for holidays during the year and for a week or so in November and in December the winter holidays This place is still my respite and place to go to blow off some steam or stay fit-- I like how I can swim, run, and do weights conveniently in one visit if I wanted to. Will continue going here to workout!

This relatively new and beauuuutiful gym opened up within the past year, and I would've been so…read morehappy to have a gym like this when I was a student! Its clean, shiny, modern design allows a lot of natural light come through the windows. There are rows and rows of cardio and weight machines, free weights, several benches, maybe 3 squat racks on the first floor. There are also several basketball courts that double-times as pickleball and table tennis areas too. Head to the second floor for an indoor track separated with jogging/walking lanes that tour around more cardio equipment + an area to stretch and do free weights/floor exercises. Fans of group fitness classes will have to pay for semester passes, but they have endless choices of yoga, circuit training, cycling, pilates, bootcamps, and even tai chi classes, plus those specifically for older adults! Members of the community (non-students) can also nab a membership here too, so it's a great choice with an amazing price to stay active! My first visit with my dad today really impressed me and I can't wait to come back for another workout next time I'm in the area :D The 2nd floor is definitely quieter if you like your space (and colder!). They keep it well ventilated with the AC and Big A** Fans (that's a real brand, I'm not joking). Views through the large windows are great with fields in the back (you can spot families of deer wandering around!) or big blue skies in the front if weather permits. Lots of free lockers with locks to store your stuff. The restrooms are clean, and the lockers have several showers too. There's apparently a small sweat towel service! And you can check-out equipment like basketballs at the front desk too. Personal training is also available. There is also a grab and go cafe at the first level and tongs of nooks and places to sit and study. There's no dearth of plugs either. Free public wi-fi. You can find indoor study rooms and outdoor patios with tables on the second level to hang out and work on things. *dreamy sigh* Downsides I can think of: no swimming pool. And they close really early Friday-Sunday at 6 pm~ UH Clear Lake students get free membership, but otherwise community members can start working out for $25 monthly. A parking badge/slip is $5 monthly (giant parking lot). Only 2 guest passes per semester. If you're just in the area, a day pass is just $5-- check it out! ^-^b
