Campus Rec's Biggest Secret

Psst… the Rec Center might not be what you think it is. Throughout the month of May, the Rec Center will be “Breaking the Brand” of what a typical gym or fitness environment looks like and sharing what we really want the PSU community to know about toxic diet and fitness culture, weight stigma, and other harmful myths.

We invite you to visit the Rec Center during the month of May and walk through our facility as we myth-bust harmful health and fitness beliefs and provide evidence-based resources. There will also be opportunities for you to share your perspective and tell us what you’d like to learn more about.

Guided by four weekly themes, we will be tackling topics such as diet and fitness trends, who really belongs in a gym, the mental health benefits of movement, and the importance of rest and recovery.��
