Fitness is the foundation of everything. Whether you are training for a marathon, want to get stronger for your favorite sport, or just want to feel better about yourself: you lay the foundation in the gym. At the USC, you won't find a dime-a-dozen gym, but a professional environment where personal growth is central.

With top equipment from Matrix, extensive cardio zones, and functional training areas, you have all the tools at your fingertips. But most importantly? You are not alone. Our certified instructors help you with schedules, technique, and motivation. This way, you get the most out of every workout.

All about Fitness

What equipment do you have?

We mainly work with the top brand Matrix. You will find the Ultra and Aura series (including Leg Press, Lat Pulldown, Chest Press), an extensive cardio zone (including rowers, treadmills, stairmasters), and loose materials such as TRX, Bosu balls, and kettlebells.

Do I have to pay for a schedule?

No! At the USC, personal guidance is included. We believe it is important that you train safely and effectively. Talk to an instructor or email sportcentrum@usc.leidenuniv.nl for an appointment.

Is there guidance available?

Yes, there are always certified fitness instructors walking around the gym. Do you have a question about an exercise or are you unsure about your posture? Feel free to tap them on the shoulder, that's what they are there for!
