five different aspects that influence overall health and effect our ability to meet the physical demands of everyday living; include:

• muscular strength — exerting maximal force to lift and/or move an object (e.g., completing one push-up)
• muscular endurance — ability of the muscles to exert submaximal force over a prolonged period of time (e.g., doing more than one push-up)
• cardiovascular endurance — ability of the heart and lungs to work together and provide blood and oxygen to the working muscles over a period of time (e.g., jogging)
• flexibility — the ability of a joint and the surrounding muscles to move through a full range of motion (e.g., stretching)
• body composition — the ratio of fat tissue to fat-free body tissue
