You know fitness when you see it - - - a strong body, thin and thriving. You see someone who bounds up the stairs, who stretches easily without straining or grasping his lower back, and you consider him fit. You watch a woman dance without having to catch her breath or sit down, and you believe she is fit. You see a man play football with his son and think "fit." Fitness sometimes seems like a gift - - you either have it or you don't. But in reality, fitness is something you create. To become fit and create a fit life, you need to know what healthy traits and habits compose fitness and how you can go about improving your levels of them. Once you know those things - - and once you make their practice a regular part of your life - - you will be fit.
Fitness is composed of cardiorespiratory health, muscle strength and endurance and flexibility.
