Fitness is only 20% of it!
Your physiological health consists of three macro elements: Sleep, Nutrition and Fitness.
Sleep is 40% of the equation… if you aren’t getting enough sleep don’t bother exercising. Rest is considerably more important than exercise. For instance, go a week without sleep and then go a week without exercise and see which one proves to be more integral to you and your health.
Nutrition is another 40% of the good health equation. If you eat high fat and/or highly processed foods, it won’t really matter how often or intense you exercise, you’re not going to see the results or gain the benefits that you’re after. Moreover… fruits, vegetables, lean proteins and grains with quality fiber should make up the bulk of your diet. When it comes to solid nutrition, it comes down to good choices being more numerous than bad choices to win over the day!
Fitness is the remaining 20% of the equation! If you have your sleep under control and you’re working to improve your nutrition, it’s time for fitness to play its integral role in your health and well-being. Fitness consists of two vital elements… Cardiovascular Training (10%) and Resistance Training (10%)! Make no mistake about it – they’re both equally vital to your fitness!
