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.

My approach to fitness is to maximize brain activity through balance and coordination and design exercises that will incorporate and improve your balance,coordination,muscular strength and cardiovascular system.

When you do a simple movement as shown in the picture, you have over 35 muscles involved in that movement (28 stabilizing your body, core strength) 4 muscles in the upper extremity and 3 muscles in the lower extremity.

In this way, we will be able to guarantee that people can improve their fitness and also their balance, coordination, muscular strength and their cardiovascular system
