Wave Fit Video Playlist

Our Wave Fit Video Playlist on includes workouts created by Campus Recreation personal trainers. You can use these individual videos to build your own workout plan. Or, watch them in sequence to complete the two-week program. 

At-Home Guided Workouts

Try a guided workout also designed by our Campus Recreation personal trainers. Video instructions demonstrating exercises correspond with each workout. You can watch the video ahead of time, prepare your supplies, and find a space suitable at home.

Get creative if you're away from the gym and don't have your usual workout equipment. Household items can be excellent substitutes. For example, soup cans can be dumbbells with a little imagination, and a bookbag with books can be an at-home kettlebell.
