Sturrus Fitness Center 


Kinesiology students using Sturrus Weight RoomThe Sturrus Sports Fitness Center (aka, Weight Room) is located on the upper level of the Sturrus Building. Access requires a valid Aquinas ID swipe.

Following a community-driven renovation project completed ahead of schedule, the space reopened during the 2024 school year with substantially upgraded equipment and a redesigned floor layout. The first phase of the renovation brought sweeping upgrades to the cardio and strength areas. The cardio space has been completely redesigned for improved functionality, and the facility now features new mats, two tower cable machines with seated pull-down and seated row attachments, and a fully outfitted free weight area, including new benches, dumbbells, kettlebells, medicine balls, and slam balls. 

The second phase, completed during fall break 2024, focused on a full transformation of the strength and conditioning space. The area was repainted, rebranded, and outfitted with new flooring. The renovated space now features 10 Olympic power racks with platforms and accessories, men's and women's Olympic barbells, trap doors, and complete bumper-plate sets.
