Now available in Ballantyne Corporate Park, a new way to stay in shape! Located off Ballantyne Corporate Place in the wooded area between Ballantyne One, Ballantyne Two and Ballantyne Three (SPX), Fit-Trail is a new amenity for all to use.

 

This new trail is approximately 6 feet wide by 2,000 feet long and made from crushed recycled concrete material topped with limestone. This material is known to be easier on the joints, since the crushed materials give a softer impact when walking and running. In addition, the material absorbs water, which lessons standing water after rain.

 

Fit-Trail is the new way to good health! People have enjoyed the Fit-Trail way to fitness across America for more than a decade. Fit-Trail is a balanced program of total fitness conditioning for all ages and sizes. It’s fun, costs nothing, and provides the motivation to keep exercising. Everything you need is provided. There are exercise stations placed along a trail or in one location where you can learn about exercise and perform an exercise routine on the apparatus at each of the exercise stations. The exercises are fully illustrated, and you progress at your own pace.

The routine has been carefully designed to include exercises for: Flexibility,Cardiovascular conditioning, Muscle Strength and Muscle Endurance.

 

Here’s How It Works: Fit-Trail is a series of exercise stations located along a trail or in one central location. Each exercise station has an exercise instruction sign and exercise apparatus. Do each exercise slowly and carefully according to your physical condition and ability. Proceed from station to station and perform the exercises as illustrated.

 

Enjoy Every Move You Make! By jogging or briskly walking through the system and performing the exercise routine, you are getting a well-balanced conditioning program. An important element to the system is the TARGET HEART BEAT RATE GUIDES located at stations throughout the system. The target heart beat rate guides provide valuable information about how you should pace yourself during any exercise or sports activity.
