PHYSICAL WELLNESS
“The Body is the MOST COMPLEX piece of
equipment ever designed”
Physical wellness is the ability to apply knowledge, motivation,
commitment, behavior, self management, attitude, and skills
toward achieving personal fitness and health goals.
"Those who think they have no time for exercise will sooner or later
have to find time for illness”.
"Physical wellness can be maintained by applying the knowledge and
skills of sound nutrition, exercise, and safety to everyday life”.
