The fitness center located in the Smith Field house on BYU campus has a capacity of 95 students at a time with a student population of over 33,000 students. This causes many problems of overcrowding, safety concerns, lack of exercise equipment, and unavailability of RB gyms and the indoor track due to classes, university events, and activities. The fitness center is meant to be an area for students to increase their overall well-being and maintain their physical health, but how are you expected to achieve that when you have to wait 20 minutes just to use a treadmill? Sign this petition in support of a new recreation center on campus! You won't regret it in a few years.

It smells so bad in there and you can never find an open machine. Fix it.
Finally someone doing something about this. The gym situation here is so bad compared to even smaller schools.
PLEASE we need a real gym. waiting 30 mins for a squat rack is absolute insanity.
BYU gym is terrible to be honest. Compared to the gyms of other universities it's almost laughable. It's way too small, and with weight training classes going on during the day it's hard to find a time that it's not overcrowded
The BYU workout facilities desperately need an upgrade. It’s time for renovation!
The situation is ridiculous, need this to be fixed asap
Please

Honestly it is impossible to get a lift in during the day. Way too many people for such a tiny space.
