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 as 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 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 soap box, remember that fitness is something that you can get in the habit of doing which makes it easy.

Fitness is not something that you have to struggle with. When you were three you were probably taught to brush your teeth. You learned to put your clothes on. When you were learning how to do them, you likely hated it. But, once you learned how to do it, it became something that you didn't think twice about. Do you worry about brushing your teeth today? No, because it's a habit. That's what we want you to think of when you think of fitness.

It's just something that you do. Granted, the first weeks of learning to be fit and staying healthy will be the hardest. You'll dread it. You'll find excuses about not doing it. You'll claim that getting fit is just too hard. You just can't give up what you love. That's not true.

In fact, if you have the will power to save your life by sacrificing for just a few weeks, you'll see that fitness can be easily mastered by you.

Take a look at yourself right now. What do you see? If you are unhappy about any part of your body, chances are good that area of your body is bothering you because it's an unhealthy area.

Although many people start looking into fitness because they want to lose weight, fitness is not just about weight loss. By understanding where you stand on these factors above, you can work to improve your overall wellness and increase your lifespan as well as the quality of life that you are currently living.

If you don't think that you need to lose weight, that's great! You are one step closer to being healthy. But, that's not to say that you don't have health problems beyond that level. Many people are still at risk for high blood pressure, high cholesterol as well as other concerns even though they aren't technically overweight. Therefore, you need to take into consideration the fact that overall health is in fact important to improve.
