Fitness is a lifestyle choice that involves making healthy choices in order to improve physical and mental health. Fitness involves both exercise and nutrition. With regular exercise, the body becomes stronger, more flexible, better able to manage stress, and less susceptible to disease. Eating a balanced diet helps provide essential nutrients for energy and growth, as well as helping maintain a healthy weight.Regular exercise can help reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and stroke. It also helps improve moods, reduce stress levels and increase energy levels. Exercise can also help one stay focused on their goals by providing an outlet for relieving stress or boredom from the daily grind. Additionally it can be used as a form of recreation or competition with friends or family members in activities such as running races or sports like basketball or golfing. Nutrition is just as important for fitness as exercise is because it provides the body with fuel to use during workouts and throughout the day in order to perform at peak efficiency. Eating a balanced diet means consuming all five food groups (grains, fruits/vegetables, dairy products, proteins/legumes) in appropriate portion sizes while limiting added sugars and unhealthy fats/oils. Additionally drinking plenty of water will help keep your body hydrated which will result in improved performance during workouts but also throughout the day generally speaking. In conclusion fitness encompasses both nutrition & exercise which when done together are essential components for living a healthy lifestyle that promotes overall well-being & longevity.
