As the fall sports season is coming to an end, it’s time to prepare for winter and spring sports. Here are some tips on how to stay in shape for your current or off season.

The first thing any athlete should do is always workout. Coaches are very generous and willing to let you use the weight room for a weekly workout. Recommended by Mercy girls, the best places in Omaha to go on runs are Memorial Park or Elmwood Park. The girls say the scenery is what makes you forget you are even running.

Another tip to stay in shape is to watch your calorie intake. Trust me, it isn’t that hard to watch what you eat. The best way to do so is choose the food you enjoy on an everyday basis and find it in a healthier form. It is recommended to use more organic products for better outcomes. Senior Rachel Grigsby says, “Hy-Vee has a great health market with different varieties and reasonable prices”.

Last, and most important, is to constantly drink water. Even if you aren’t working out, always drink water. Drinking water can benefit you by lubricating your joints, regulating body temperature, helping maintain blood pressure, boosting your performance during exercise and many more health benefits.

By following these easy steps, you are guaranteed to be ready to dominate your upcoming sport season.
