Search Results - Physical fitness

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Physical fitness comprises two related concepts general fitness (a state of health and well-being) and specific fitness (a task-oriented definition based on the ability to perform specific aspects of sports or occupations).

In previous years, fitness was commonly defined as the capacity to carry out the day’s activities without undue fatigue. However, as automation increased leisure time, changes in lifestyles following the industrial revolution rendered this definition insufficient. These days, physical fitness is considered a measure of the body’s ability to function efficiently and effectively in work and leisure activities, to be healthy, to resist hypokinetic diseases, and to meet emergency situations.

Accordingly, a general-purpose physical fitness program must address the following essentials[2]

However along with these essential components, a comprehensive fitness program that is tailored to an individual will probably focus on one or more specific skills[3], and on age-[4] or health-related needs such as bone health[5]. Many sources[citation needed] also cite mental and emotional health as an important part of overall fitness. This is often presented in textbooks as a triangle made up of three points, which represent physical, emotional, and mental fitness. Physical fitness can also prevent or treat many chronic health conditions brought on by unhealthy lifestyle or aging[6]. Working out can also help people sleep better. To stay healthy it's important to participate in physical activity[7].
