RecWell Stories
Karlee Brower
"Through G3, Kickboxing, and SPIN, I am now in the best shape I have ever been in. Before I came to Grand Valley, I had never tried SPIN or Kickboxing, and now they are my new favorite workouts. I have gained so much confidence in myself and my abilities. The Group Exercise classes are not only so much fun, but also a fantastic workout. Intramural Volleyball and Group Ex have made me feel more part of the GVSU community, and I have met so many cool people through my involvement with Campus Rec!
I participate in Group Ex because it gives me a structured workout that I see results with. I participate in Intramural Volleyball because it is a fun way to participate in sports, and it can be as competitive as you want it to be."
UNPLUGGED
"I unplug to better focus on my school work, as I am able to better focus and get homework and projects done on time. By unplugging, I am able to connect with people face to face and get to know them in real life, not just over social media. The UNPLUGGED campaign from Campus Recreation helped me understand the benefits of unplugging from technology or social media.
On social media, people spend a lot of time comparing themselves to pictures others post. By unplugging, I have felt more confident in myself because I have spent less time comparing myself to others."
