Definition

  • Fitness is defined using various characteristics that pertain to a person's ability to participate in physical activity and exercise. Moderate to high levels of fitness are important to a person's ability to engage in daily living activities without major stress and strain to the various body systems, and with enough energy left over to participate in recreational activities.
