Stay Fit in the Winter: The Colony Fitness Amenities

Don’t let your workout routine go cold because it’s chilly outside. Do just the opposite and use the cold to get motivated to warm up with exercise! Working out is the perfect way to stay warm and fit at the same time, indoors or out – and The Colony is the place to do it. From disc golf to pickleball to a fitness center, we have everything you need to stay fit while it’s cold outside.

Play Disc Golf

Disc golf is an exciting game where you can fly solo or compete with your neighbors. Our course has nine holes that wind through the trees and rolling prairie land, so you can enjoy the beautiful landscape while you get your exercise. Not only will it be a fun time, but a time to get outside and play, rain or shine, hot or cold. And you can bring your dog and throw Frisbees in the practice area if you’re not in the mood for a whole game.

Lakehouse Park

The fabulous Lakehouse Park is more than just a park — it is the perfect location for all our residents to unwind, get some sunshine, and check a workout off your list. Get competitive with your family and neighbors at our resident-exclusive pickleball courts! You may not even notice you’re working out, and just about anyone can play. The pump track also offers the chance to race your bike for an exhilarating fitness adventure. Set aside time weekly for a game or a few laps around the pump track to get your blood pumping. Add this to disc golf each week, and you have at least two days of exercise that won’t even feel like work.

Amenity Center Complex

If the weather is bad or just too cold, you can get your workout in our resident-exclusive Amenity Center Complex, where you can use the exercise equipment or take a class. Staying fit will be a breeze if you aim to be in the fitness center at least twice a week — the workout possibilities are endless! If you add these to pickleball and disc golf games each week, you’ll check off four days of fitness. Residents living within the gated areas have access to this facility.

The Overlook

When you need some outdoor time, even if it’s chilly, The Overlook is the place to go for beautiful views of the Texas oaks along the Colorado River. Put on layers of workout clothes and head out for a walk, run, or bike ride on the trails that meander through the area. You’ll enjoy the crisp air and tranquil surroundings while getting your exercise at the same time. There’s also a fitness center here, so you can also work out inside. Residents on the east side of 969 have access to this facility.

Extensive Trail System

Overlook Park features three acres of open land that connect to a trail that leads down to the river, the perfect place for bodyweight workouts or YouTube exercise videos. You can walk, run, or bike on the other trails in our resident-exclusive extensive system of paved and unpaved trails connecting the neighborhoods.

That’s at least six days of workouts to help you stay fit this winter — and even your dog can stay fit too at the community Greenbelt Dog Park. There’s always something to do at The Colony, no matter the time of year, so contact us today to find your new home and enjoy our amazing amenities.
