Jack Ison Varsity Sports Performance Center

• In partnership with Life Fitness the facility underwent a complete renovation in early 2017, doubling in size.
• The facility includes 20 platforms, 20 racks, 720 pounds of weight per platform, black polyurethane bumpers, four bikes, two treadmills, two ellipticals, four jammers, four iso lunge machines, two leg presses and four vertical leg curl machines.  It also has 90 pairs of dumbbells, more than any other school in the nation. 

• In addition, a 10-yard wide by 30-yard long artificial turf field is housed inside the new weight room.  This area allows for warm-ups, sprints, agility training and plyometrics.

• The sports performance center also includes a nutrition bar, with ice machines, refrigerators and blenders.  It is believed to be one of the largest in the nation.

• The facility features Hammer Strength brand equipment from Life Fitness.  Hammer Strength is rugged performance strength training equipment that takes what athletes dish out and helps exercisers get to where they strive to be.  Hammer Strength moves the way the body is meant to move and rewards hard work with results.

• Assistant Athletics Director for Sports Performance Jon-Michael Davis, along with assistant director Cody Drouin, oversee all of EKU’s nearly 300 student-athletes.
