Show your MATC ID at the Fitness Center in the basement of the M Building to be able to use the equipment for free.

If your New Year’s resolution was to get more exercise, you’ll want to check out the Fitness Center in the M Building at the Downtown Milwaukee Campus.

It’s kind of hidden in the basement. It’s located in M6. To get there, go to Door 2 of the M Building on 6th Street and head down the stairs. Turn right and it’s on your right.

Equipment in the room ranges from treadmills and elliptical machines to universal weights.

To get in, you need to show your MATC ID. The Fitness Center is open Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. and Friday from 10 a.m.-3 p.m.

Students can use weights at the Fitness center in M6.

Four treadmills greet students when they walk into the Fitness Center at the Downtown Campus.

Stationary bikes are available as well as cross training equipment at the Fitness Center.

About the Contributor

David Gray, Staff Writer

I'm an avid reader and writer, as well as a published author. I grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and after spending some time in Los Angeles, California, I'm now back home in Milwaukee. I am attending MATC to pursue a career in business management. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, and reading nonfiction novels and self-help books related to business. I also volunteer at times due to my passion for reading. Reading, in my view, is the gateway to life and understanding. I am grateful for the opportunity here at MATC as a student and member of the MATC Times. I look forward to bringing you the exciting, entertaining, and educational side of literature through the Book Corner.
