UTMB Alumni Field House

Fantastic experience: Best pool on the island

Fantastic experience: UTMB's field house is great!! There are 5 split rooms of workout equipment including machines and free-weights. The area for treadmills/cardio is unique, although it's narrow you face the window which overlooks the pool and behind that the track. If you don't want to look out there is another row of treadmills that lookout onto the gym itself. The basketball court is always clean and it has a 2-lane track around it. Although it's short, it can be better than running outside or on the treadmill. I like that they have 2 rooms that you can use for stretching, doing a workout video or practicing your form. There are also lockers but the ones without locks seem to always be full but I just bring my stuff for the day. I like that they have showers with a bench and mounted wall hair dryers. Great place to workout!

Fantastic experience: Great place

Positive experience: Good gym. Lots of UTMB students go here for their fitness needs. The treadmills are truly amazing... You can watch netflix on the built in screen on the treadmill while you run... NO EXCUSES!!! However, they only have 2 squat racks..... 2! Often times you will have to wait just to use one of the racks.... unacceptable. We need to get rid of some of the other useless gym equipment and install more squat racks. PRO TIP: use your phone to take a picture of the bar code on your gym card and then you can just use your picture to scan into the gym.

Fantastic experience: In 1968, the graduates and friends of UTMB contributed funds to establish the Alumni Field House. For over 40 years the UTMB Alumni Field House has been a place for students, alumni, employees, retirees, and their families to unwind, get in shape, and have fun. Thanks to the generous support of the Moody Foundation and alumni funds, the Field House is a state-of-the-art fitness and wellness facility offering the latest in exercise equipment as well as opportunities for research, work/study programs, and internships. A recent renovation has increased the size of the facility to more than 49,000 square feet. Through payment of the student service fee, each student has a membership at the UTMB Alumni Field House. Students may obtain a family membership for their immediate family members (spouse and children under twenty-five years of age) living in the same household for a yearly fee of $225. Lockers are also available for an additional fee.

Positive experience: From what I experienced my first visit, this gym is in great condition. The gym equipment is clean and their pool is kept up well! This field house is private to only employees and their families. They follow this rule strickley. I rate this place 4 out of 5 because the customer service there is not up to par.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Galveston

Fantastic experience: Family friendly gym

Fantastic experience: Lots of equipment and they just set up new equipment throughout the gym. Even though it can be busy it is still easy to workout.

Fantastic experience: Best gym on the island.

Positive experience: Great facilities. Plenty of machines and always free options. New basketball court. The swimming pool is heated on winter and chilled in summer! Parking can be challenging at times, which deepens on the time you visit.

Positive experience: Decent gym, has everything you need. Recently updated interior with new equipment which is great. However, equipment could be maintained better, apparent that it is not cleaned enough. Some ceiling fans seem to be purely decor as they do not work, or just spin and do nothing or create a whirl wind. Peak times can be crowded. Haven't used pool, they are still finishing renovation and are currently renovating the basketball court.

Positive experience: Great gym that is rarely packed. Some of the equipment is outdated but it doesn't stop people from getting the job done.

Fantastic experience: All the toys for a full work out plus pool, jacuzzi and sauna.
