The Recreation and Wellness Center (RAW) is an incredible gym for Cal State East Bay students and faculty, free for students. It is in a beautiful spot and is not so crowded. The center has two floors with weights on both and good facilities, including a huge basketball stadium, cardio on the first floor, massage chairs, and locker rooms. It is a very clean place with great equipment and a conducive environment. The only con is the lack of personal trainers.
Equipment in perfect condition, clean and maintained. Tons of machines and possible stuff to rent for different sports. Staff is very helpful and friendly

Much cleaner than commercial gyms that I've visited in the area, nice basketball courts and courteous staff.

Class of '09 alumni here, Kinesiology major. I've always loved this campus, and I'm impressed with the upgrades such as The R.A.W. I remember when The R.A.W. was still a thought in the works.
