Fitness

Physical fitness is comprised of two concepts: general fitness (a state of health and well-being) and specific fitness (the ability to perform aspects of sports/occupations). Both are achieved through exercise, good nutrition and adequate rest.

Health

Health is the general condition of a person in all aspects. It is also a level of functional and/or metabolic efficiency of an organism, often implicitly human. "The state of being free from illness or injury".

Wellness

Wellness includes not only wealth and employment, but also an individual's environment, physical health, mental health, education, recreation/leisure time, and social belonging.

Lactate Threshold

Two graphs showing my Lactate Treshold

A few weeks ago I had a Lactate Threshold Test done at www.absoluteendurance.com on a treadmill. It was pretty cool and is proving to be very useful (see my previous post where Coach Ben was able to tell me which "zones" to stay in during the marathons). Well, this past Saturday I went back to Absolute Endurance and had the same test done but this time on a bike.
