Physical Fitness

Physical fitness is the ability of your body systems to work together efficiently to allow you to be healthy and effectively perform activities of daily living. 

Being efficient means being able to do daily activities with the least amount of effort. A fit person is able to perform schoolwork as well as responsibilities at home and still have enough energy and vigor to enjoy school sports and other leisure activities. 

A fit person has the ability to respond to normal life situations such as raking the leaves at homes, stocking shelves at a part time job, or marching in the band at school. A fit person also has the ability to respond to emergency situations such as running to get help or aiding a friend in distress. 

As a child you were probably very active and thought little about improving or maintaining your fitness. However, most people become less active as they grow older. Developing a personal plan for regular physical activity can help you keep your activity level high and avoid sedentary living. 

The activities you choose can be those that you like doing best and those that are best for you. Getting fit and staying fit can be fun when you choose activities that you enjoy.
