Complete Body Fitness

Fitness is a term that is used to help define the ability to stay in the best physical shape. You may ask, then, “What am I staying in shape for?” To each person, this will be something different. For most, it is a matter of staying healthy as long as possible. You see, your body is designed to work like a machine. When each part of the machine is cared for, the entire machine works the best that it can. When the machine is neglected either in part or in the whole, then the machine won’t run well and eventually won’t run at all. If a car, for example, is well maintained for many years, it will last many years longer. If it isn’t taken care of, for example, you don’t change the oil in it, you cut several years off the life of the car. That’s costly to you, but when you look at this as your body, you are shaving away days, weeks, and even years off of your life when you don’t take care of your machine (your body.) Fitness is a necessary part of life. Before we get on the soapbox, remember that fitness is something that you can get into the habit of doing which makes it easy.
