In this sense FITNESS is a multi- dimensional concept and the level of fitness in one area can influence the other.

What does fitness mean?
 
The term fitness is defined in many different aspects in life, What does the word fitness mean to you?

Is it purely a physical definition= or does it bring in mental well being, emotional well being, spiritual well being, or just being content within yourself.

When thinking of the word fitness what springs to your mind?
Being able to comfortably walk round town with out a problem, maybe just running around with the family at the local park.

Or do you fall in to the category of thinking hardcore training hitting the gym 5-6 times a week, pumping iron, sweat dripping , muscles tearing, to then build new muscle fibres for bigger, more defined toned muscles.

I guess fitness to everyone means different things, there is no right or wrong answer everyone is entitled to their opinion.

What i want to talk about today is physical fitness, and how both you and I think differently.

For me I really love hitting the gym Hard, I love that sensation of your muscles burning, the build up of lactic acid, the pumped I have really worked hard thoughts that cross my mind.

I think of several different things when I zone myself out. ( harden up and stop being a girl)
where I am aiming to be, and how I am going to feel at the end of the session.

The feelings that I reap from that huge adrenaline rush release any anger or stress that I have had, and make me feel on top of the world.

But if you dont like any of the above, you dont have to think the way I think;

Because I believe that fitness means MANY different things, You can be fit in many ways,

Like a few of the wellbeings I mentioned at the start.

I would love to hear your thoughts on this subject, What does Fitness mean to you?
