As an active adult community, it isn't hard for residents of Trinity Falls in McKinney, TX to stay active and healthy. So today, we are going to share a few tips so you can train like an Olympian in our master-planned community.

Have a Plan

One of the biggest mistakes people make is not creating a plan for their training. Olympic athletes are known for their meticulous training plans and exercise schedules. The most important thing to keep in mind is to have a plan that you can commit to and use to form a sustainable routine.

Know Your Baseline and Work from There

There's no need to push yourself too far at the very beginning. The best thing you can do to get into shape is to know your normal level of daily activity and then gradually build on that. This should be a part of your training plan.

Use What's Accessible

You don't have to bother with pricey gym memberships and workout equipment. It's all about what you have access to. Residents of Trinity Falls in McKinney, TX have easy access to miles of hike and bike trails that are perfect for a cardio workout. You can mix up the views by running through different parts of the community!

Measure Your Workouts on Intensity, Not Time

While Olympians will spend hours in the gym every day training to improve their game and get in better shape, most people don't usually have that kind of time to dedicate to the gym. Ultimately, workout intensity and consistency matters more than workout duration and fitting in 20-30 minutes of exercise when possible will keep you in shape!

Recovery is Key

Don't feel bad if you take a day off. Even the best Olympic athletes in the world understand the importance of allowing their body to rest and recover. If you don't give your body enough time to recover after a vigorous exercise, you're just increasing your chances of being injured further down the road.
