Two Women Exercising
Physical fitness is the result of regular exercise, proper diet and nutrition, and proper rest for physical recovery within the parameters allowed by the genome. Physical exercise is the performance of some activity to develop or maintain physical fitness and overall health. It is often directed toward also honing athletic ability or skill. Frequent and regular physical exercise is an important component in the prevention of some of the diseases of affluence such as heart disease, cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes and obesity.
Physical fitness is often divided into the following types:
  • Agility
  • Balance
  • Body composition
  • Cardiovascular endurance
  • Coordination
  • Flexibility and joint range of motion
  • Muscular strength & endurance
  • Speed

Aerobics is a form of exercise, typically performed to music, often in a group setting with a leader, although it can be practiced solo and without musical accompaniment. Aerobics comprises stretching, strength training, and aerobic exercise components in order to improve all elements of fitness (flexibility, muscle strength, and cardiovascular fitness).

Within each 'unit' (units being flexibility, strength training and aerobic workout), practitioners go through variable routines comprising a number of different exercises. Proponents of aerobics cite staving off boredom and working out the whole body as two of the advantages of aerobics over other types of exercise. The reputedly higher safety factor inherent in a fitness routine led and overseen by a trained professional is another.

Formal aerobics 'classes' led by aerobics instructors are often divided into beginner, intermediate and advanced classes, with different routines and fitness goals for each, and many aerobics classes allow participants to modify their level of participation in line with their fitness level.

Aerobics is a form of exercise that is typically associated with weight loss regimes. Properly executed, it improves fitness, but doesn't contribute measurably to specialized athletic training. More women than men practice aerobics. Although aerobics is typically practiced to music, it is not to be confused with jazzercise or other dance-based workouts.
