The Middlebury College fitness center is one of the finest of its kind in New England. Overlooking the Green Mountains with its surrounding windows, the fitness center provides a great area for the Middlebury College community to stay in shape. During the academic year, the facility is open 100 hours/week, making it accessible for even those with the toughest of schedules. The center is complete with six satellite televisions, audible through your personal walkman.

The split-level facility was recently expanded to 9,200 square feet, containing aerobic equipment, a full 22-piece Nautilus circuit, a hammer circuit, and extensive free weight and dumbbell areas. The fitness center houses eight elliptical trainers, treadmills and stationary bikes, as well as four stair steppers and rowers.  There is also a “Jungle Gym” cable station and a flexibility/core workout area, complete with medicine and stability balls.

The free weight section is extensive, with over four tons of free weights. All of the school’s iron grip dumb-bells and plates are urethane-coated and display the Middlebury Panther logo.

Heavyweight equipment includes six adjustable husker racks, three adjustable squat racks, four leg press machines and one olympic power station. The hammer strength room includes a dozen pieces of hammer equipment including two leg presses and a jammer machine.

For the beginner or the advanced user, the Middlebury College fitness center has something to offer for everyone.
