The Special Olympics Tennessee Train 4 Life™ program is a wellness project focused on fitness, nutrition, and mental health for teens and adults ages 13+ with intellectual disabilities. The annual 12-week program will encompass pre-and-post-biometric and fitness testing outcomes, once-a-week group workouts, and weekly nutrition and healthy lifestyle education. Through fitness and health outcomes, we can empower our athletes to develop appropriate health goals and measure realistic outcomes, to improve all health disparities our population with intellectual disabilities faces.
