Physical fitness is a combination of several components- skill, strength, speed, stamina, suppleness, skinniness. Each requires its own form of training.
This book describes the basic principles and techniques in the three "core" training activities of running, circuit training and weight training, and points out how these develop different aspects of fitness. It also gives advice on diet, and the more common types of sports injuries.
There are no frills and no magic formula. Fitness requires effort, which must be appropriate to the type of fitness that is required. The book is thus suitable for competitors, joggers, games players, and sports enthusiasts, who can all see exactly how their own sport or activity-fits in.
