The layout of the gym (weights/cardio) is terrible. A narrow space, not ideal to cater to a student population like Uvic and the surrounding community. It's unfortunate because the former gym at the ISC was a great warehouse type set up with ample floor space and a high ceiling. During peak times at ISC it felt busy, but never the crammed into a small room feeling that you get at CARSA.
Oh, and I hope you didn't like the Hammer-strength old school machines at ISC, as they've been replaced with jerky pin weight stack machines that literally count your reps, what a waste of money.
Not only is membership relatively expensive, but if you don't have a parking pass you'll have to pay for parking each time too. 1 hour is $2. Parking alone at CARSA costs per month what a competing gym's membership costs me. And unless you want to pay $4 to park per workout, you better make your workout quick and get back to your car within 1 hour or get a parking ticket.

Poor gym layout, and the gates are terribly slow to get through! Also, no place to put your bags for free. Overall, the old ISC was a much better facility.

Very nice gym and friendly staff. Yes it gets busy during peak times, go at non peak hours and its not bad at all.
The maintenance of the equipment appears to have improved from last year. Which was my chief complaint initially.

Great facilities, friendly staff.
As a UVic student, I've always enjoyed working out here and participated in various fitness group classes.

There isn't room for stretching, let alone body weight exercises! It has a climbing wall that is reset WAY to infrequently. Half the gym gets shut down when varsity is training. No pool either (not that bad). In my opinion the only reason I'd go there is because it is convenient to the school. If you do not go to school at UVIC DO NOT BUY A PASS.
