The weight room isn’t just growing. Everything inside the renovated facility will be new — weights, dumbbell sets, weight racks, lifting machines, cardio machines and a few first-time items.

Crews are installing two 10-foot, LED screens that Moffitt can sync to an iPad for recruiting and instructing purposes. The new weight room will include a medical-ball wall, second bathroom, larger storage unit, another office and up to 30 televisions.
