Physical fitness is a general concept defined in many ways by differing scientists. [1]

Here two major

categories are considered: general fitness (a state ofhealthand well-being), and specific fitness (a task-

oriented definition based on the ability to perform specific aspects ofsportsor occupations). Physical

fitness is generally achieved through correctnutrition,exercise, hygiene andrest.

Health is the level of functional or metabolic efficiency of a living being. Inhumans, it is the general

condition of aperson's mind and body, usually meaning to be free from illness,injuryorpain(as in "good

health" or "healthy").[1]

TheWorld Health Organization(WHO) defined health in its broader sense in 1946

as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or

infirmity."[2][3]Although this definition has been subject to controversy, in particular as lacking operationalvalue and because of the problem created by use of the word "complete," it remains the most

enduring.[4][5]

Other definitions have been proposed, among which a recent definition that correlates

health and personal satisfaction.[6][7]

Classification systems such as theWHO Family of International

Classifications, including theInternational Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health(ICF) and

theInternational Classification of Diseases(ICD), are commonly used to define and measure the

components of health.
