Fitness and exercise are closely related concepts, but they are not the same thing.
Physical fitness is a set of attributes that people have or achieve that relates to the ability to perform physical activity. It is often divided into health-related fitness and skill-related fitness.
• Health-related fitness is the ability to perform physical activities that benefit health, such as reducing the risk of chronic diseases, improving cardiovascular health, and maintaining a healthy weight.
• Skill-related fitness is the ability to perform physical activities that require skill, such as running, jumping, and throwing.
Exercise is any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles that results in energy expenditure. It is a subset of physical activity that is planned, structured, and repetitive and has as a final or an intermediate objective the improvement or maintenance of physical fitness.
There are many different types of exercise, and the best type for you will depend on your individual goals and needs. Some popular types of exercise include:
• Aerobic exercise is any activity that increases your heart rate and breathing rate. Examples of aerobic exercise include brisk walking, jogging, swimming, and biking.
• Strength training is any activity that helps you build muscle and strength. Examples of strength training include lifting weights, using resistance bands, and bodyweight exercises.
• Balance exercises help you maintain your balance and coordination. Examples of balance exercises include tai chi, yoga, and standing on one leg.
• Flexibility exercises help you stretch your muscles and improve your range of motion. Examples of flexibility exercises include yoga, Pilates, and stretching.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity each week. They also recommend that adults do muscle-strengthening activities that work all major muscle groups (legs, hips, back, abdomen, chest, shoulders, and arms) on two or more days a week.
If you are new to exercise, start slowly and gradually increase the amount of time and intensity of your workouts. And be sure to talk to your doctor before starting any new exercise program, especially if you have any health conditions.
Here are some tips for getting started with fitness and exercise:
• Set realistic goals. Don't try to do too much too soon.
