What is physical fitness and why should a Christian care?
|
the capacity to function in each of the body's trainable systems which supports the accomplishment of one's responsibilities and choses activities, both planned and unplanned, and which is associated with low risk of developing hypokinetic conditions; Christian's should care because God has given us our bodies and we are stewards over them.
