Cardio and Weight Room Orientation
Free for all students, faculty, staff and alumni. Our fitness team will help you navigate our facility through a one-hour orientation session. Learn how to properly use cardio, resistance, and flexibility equipment. *This orientation is not considered a personal training session.
Fitness Coaching
Fitness Coaching is a free service available exclusively to WMU students through the Navigator Network. We offer one-on-one or a group coaching session to set goals, build healthy habits, and get support along the way. Whether you want to be more active, improve your overall wellness, or stay accountable, fitness coaching can help.
Fitness Assessments
Fitness assessments are a standalone service that helps you understand your current fitness level and overall health. During the assessment, you’ll get baseline measurements that show where you’re starting. These results can help you set realistic goals and make it easier to see your progress over time.
Personal Training
The welcome package consists of three, one-hour sessions and includes a fitness consultation, assessment, equipment orientation and two workout sessions. Individuals that want to get started with personal training must purchase a welcome package first.

Jake has made my personal training journey fun! Every session Jake has great energy and a lot of patience if I need to switch some things up some days. Jake is great at making you feel comfortable and motivated for each session, and he has great communication. I would recommend Jake to anyone looking for a personal trainer, I’ve seen results since starting our sessions and I feel good about all the workouts we do, and he always has good new workouts to try.
My experience with Maddy Mularski from Fitness and Wellness was easy, caring, and affirming. I especially appreciated the amount of attention Maddy provided and how genuinely interested she was in my success. I never felt like I was receiving a generic response, and her personalized support made me feel heard and valued. The interaction increased my trust in WMU navigators and reinforced that transferring to WMU was the right decision.
Ryan has been a phenomenal trainer helping me to achieve strength and growth beyond what I would have even thought possible in the time we’ve worked together. He does a great job keeping me motivated and engaged in progressing toward my goals. As someone who hasn’t felt comfortable in a gym or weight room in the past, having his support and encouragement has eased that anxiety and makes going to the gym something that I look forward to and actually enjoy. Thank you for everything you’ve done and continue to do to help me on this journey!
