What is Physical Fitness?

Physical FitnessNorth Carolina Bodybuilding encourages a healthy lifestyle and well-being.  As always, before starting any workout plan and before getting on any diet, it is always advised to see a physician.

A healthy lifestyle begins with a persons’ physical fitness.  Physical fitness is basically your well-being and your ability to do sports, physical training, workouts and your job.  Physical fitness is comprised and achieved through proper nutrition and exercise.  Proper hygiene and plenty of rest is also important to feel and stay fit.  It’s important to stay fit and healthy to prevent or treat many chronic health conditions that can be brought on by an unhealthy lifestyle or simply by aging.

It has been proven that people who have trouble sleeping will sleep better at night when working out.  It is important to incorporate physical activity, whether it’s biking, weight lifting, aerobics, or running in daily activity to stay healthy.  The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention encourages adults between the ages of 18 to 64 to engage each week in at least one hour and 15 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity or two and a half hours of moderate-intensity aerobic activity.  The total time can be split and can be done in any increments.

An important component to stay healthy is your diet, but your overall health is diet and exercise combined.
