Abstract:
The realm of athletic training and injury rehabilitation is one that has grown to become a traditional process of repetitive exercises within non- motivational environments. This project is a response directly related to improving this existing condition.This project is a designed facility designated solely to the betterment of the athlete or the injured individual. It is placed in a natural environment in Bloomington, Indiana to promote physical and mental well-being by utilizing the natural landscape features that are existing on site. It puts the traditional indoor exercises in an outdoor space and allows the beauty and serenity of mother nature to assist in the healing process.This 120 acre peninsula into Monroe Reservoir in southern Indiana provides every possible necessity for a successful rehabilitation facility. This project harnesses these outdoor potentials and provides a fantastic place for individuals to come to stay for extended periods of time in order to regain their optimal physical and mental functions.
