What is the definition of fitness? Why is fitness important for your health? Can fitness help us live longer? And what about our children?

According to the Wikipedia Encyclopedia “Physical fitness is used in two close meanings - general fitness (a state of health and well-being) and specific fitness (a task-oriented definition based on the ability to perform specific aspects of sports or occupations)”

Researchers have well documented through different studies that those individuals engaged in some sort of aerobic activity when training at a medium intensity had the fastest cognitive responses measured by reaction time, the speed that subjects processed information and problem solving.

According the article published in The News Bureau, University Of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. “Charles Hillman, a professor of kinesiology and community health, has found that exercise may be beneficial to cognition during early and middle periods of life and protect against age-related loss of cognitive function during older adulthood”
 

Fitness and Brain Science are connected. That’s why is important to understand brain functioning before we speak about fitness. Proper brain functioning can impact your fitness level in an amazing way
