The Importance of Being Fit: Body and Mind

When you hear the word "fitness" the first thing that comes to mind is exercise. And while exercise is a part of fitness, it's not exactly the core or the exact representation of the term. No, fitness is more about allowing your body to function in such a way that it doesn't take you much effort to lift, jump, or just move.

Fitness, in the simplest terms, is the ability to move without much effort. This movement has allowed humans to both evolve and survive over the years. But there are more benefits to fitness than evolution: overall mental and physical  well-being.
