What is the best way…?
What is the best way…?
to judge health and fitness? I’m doing a report for my Life Management class about our wellness center. And I’m stuck on one of the questions lol
It says: What is the best way to judge health and fitness? By weight? By body fat composition? By some standard criteria? If so, what? Why is this the best criteria or standard to use?
I tried googling it but eh, couldn’t really find anything ):
Help would be reallllyyyy appreciated! Thanks [:
I was going to change the category, but I most likely would have gotten spammers for stupid diet loss pills and what not.
I would say body fat composition. If you look at weight alone, it doesn’t account for differences in height, sex, or lifestyle. My husband weighs more than I do, but that doesn’t necessarily tell me that he is unhealthy. I also wouldn’t want to call a professional football/soccer player unhealthy based on weight alone. Athletes actually tend to weigh more because muscle is more dense and thus weighs more than fat and that certainly doesn’t make them more unhealthy. But if all you looked at was their weight or BMI, then you would think they were less healthy than the average person because they weigh more.
If you had to pick one criteria to gauge health and fitness body fat compostion. BMI is a common standard criteria, but it also fails to account for body type differences in athletes vs. non-athletes and just general build. Some people have bigger bones.
