Health vs Fitness

Todays blog post literally copy and pasting off an old lecture so y’all don’t think I’m nuts when I tell you that health and fitness are NOT the same thing.⠀

-“Health and wellness are factors of disease free living with positive controls over physiological measures.”⠀
-“Fitness is defined by quantifiable measures of physical components broken down into health and performance related components.”⠀
⠀

Got Genetics?

We’ve all heard people say “oh it’s genetics” But how much does genetics actually affect us? 25-40% of what happens to us is not in our control. What we can control is our behavior and our environment. Genetics determines our potential capabilities as well as what we are at risk to developing or more susceptible to. It also influences the way our physiology adapts to exercise and our physiological occurrences. ⠀

However, by no means can we use genetics as an excuse for diabetes when all you eat is processed sugar.⠀
