DTU FITNESS, LYNGBY
Everyday - 05.00-22.45
The balcony in Building 101b—the west and south wings of the DTU sports halls—has a 400 m2 fitness centre. The centre is open all year round on all days from 5.00 a.m. – 10.45 p.m. year—except in connection with exams, Commemoration Day, etc.
DTU Fitness is the fitness centre for DTU students and staff. The philosophy behind the fitness centre is to give users a say in how the centre should be, but, in return, we expect them to also take joint responsibility for the centre, handle the equipment properly, and clean up after themselves. If the users live up to this, it will be possible to continuously upgrade the centre, and also to keep the membership fee at an attractive level.

FAQ
When can I reach the guard? - If there are problems in the training center or in an adjacent area the DTU-guard may be reached by phone: +45 23 38 60 19
Why is there no music in fitness center? - If loud music were to be permitted, it would also be allowed in the climbing club and other nearby sports areas, which quickly would lead to loud mixed music that would result in a very noisy environment. There may be special occations where DTU Sport can grant permission for this, but this should always be announced with post (day and interval)
Why is it so cold/warm? - In the summertime, it may heat up due to the large window panes and cooler in the winter for the same reason. This is mainly due to poor insulation of the windows and we have no immediate solution to this problem. Remember to bring appropriate wear and plenty of water in the summer :)
- What happens if the equipment is broken? - If you find any equipment broken, defect or near these conditions, don't hesitate to write a mail! (Remember to describe the defect and an instructor/assistant will look at it ASAP).
