6. Exercise “A form of physical activity which maintains or improves health and/or physical fitness.” Health problems have increased in the last 100 years in the western world despite the vast improvements in healthcare. This is down to a decrease in exercise. Hypokinetic diseases which include heart disease, high blood pressure and back pain have risen at a vast rate, all because of a lack of exercise in individuals. These can be relieved by regular exercise participation. Exercise is known to relieve stress and tension and not just improve fitness levels.

7. Fitness “The ability to meet the demands of the environment.” The first question you should ask yourself is ‘fit for what?’ Being fit means you are able to cope with the demands of your daily activities e.g. work, school, college and home life. To ensure you do not suffer from excess strain you need to have the required fitness through a regular exercise programme. Performance “How well a task is completed.” Performance is judged on how well you compete to the best of your ability. At every level, players must exercise to keep themselves fit and enhance their performance.
