Rebel Wellness Assessment
The Rebel Wellness Assessment provides a comprehensive measurement of your overall wellness. First, it includes a health risk assessment (HRA) to help determine your areas for improvement based upon diet, physical activity, stress, alcohol and tobacco use, and other wellness factors. Second, it includes an examination of your flexibility, aerobic fitness, muscular strength and endurance, and body composition. Our qualified staff interprets your assessment results to help you build a holistic, balanced wellness program that meets your needs.

UNLV student members of the SRWC are eligible for one free rebel wellness assessment during the first 30 days of each academic semester. Non-student members are eligible for one free rebel wellness assessment within the first 30 days of their membership. Additional rebel wellness assessments after the 30 days are available for a fee.
