'I don't run out of breath going up the stairs or walking for a long time.'
'The WELL improved my self-confidence by making me a better person mentally and physically. Working out has made me have a stronger mentality by not giving up on things.'
'Exercising is my escape from the stress in my life. The Well is an environment where I can go often to gain my confidence and feel healthy. I also gain knowledge of different workouts by taking the group classes so that I know what areas I can work out on my body.'
'During workouts, I don't usually see people focusing on school work or stressing about academics. People there are there to work out their bodies. This helps to give me a break from academics and allows me time to myself.'
'I have developed a better sleeping pattern and I have a place where I can blow off the daily steam.'
'I've come to build relationships with other students who go to The WELL as well. In fact, most of my friends that I know on campus were first met at The WELL.'
'As a transfer student I feel much more connected now as I have been one semester on campus and already have great things to note. It makes me more inclined to participate on campus and advocate to new incoming students.'
'It has made me feel like the choice I made for school was worth it.'
'I would say participating in intramural volleyball and coming to open gym at the Well has allowed me to meet many students and I have made a lot of strong friendships as well. My intramural volleyball teams have become part of my family. I got to both of my teams, twice a week, everyone had a blast! Definitely worth it!'
'The WELL is a great place to meet new people that share similar interests. Some of my peers from my business courses need to take a mental break from the studies and we found our escape through basketball. The bonds we created inside the classroom and on the basketball courts will stay with us for a lifetime. I am thankful for the opportunity for us to find a safe place to play and showcase our love for the game. After the workout I notice my mind is so much clear and focused on the classwork.'
'I began working at The WELL during my freshman year at Sacramento State and it has helped shape what has become a great college experience! Along with connecting me to people, The WELL has empowered me to develop professionally by putting me in leadership positions and by teaching me valuable career skills. Applying at The WELL is one of the best decisions I've ever made!'
