Why Fitness There are several reasons to maintain physical fitness. Being overweight puts you at a higher risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, gallstones, breathing problems, and certain cancers. Many patients also report having more energy and sleeping better when they are fit compared to when they are overweight. The NIH considers a BMI over 25 to be overweight. This is not a perfect definition, but it works for most people. Exceptions would include very muscular people. The NIH BMI calculator can be found with the link in the description of this program. http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/educational/lose_wt/BMI/bmicalc.htm "Life of Riley" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
