The Fitness Basics
Fitness athletes can be defined in many different ways.
To some people fitness might mean a slim waistline. To others it could
be the ability to bench-press their body weight. And to others it might
be a general feeling of wellness.
When you think of fitness, it's important to
look at the big picture. It's not just about strength, endurance or fat
content, but a combination of all these. You might be strong but have no
endurance. You might have endurance but have little flexibility.
What you want to strive for is balance. Listed
below are five key components important to a good definition of fitness.
Investigate each one. Consider areas where you are strong and the areas
where you are weak.
