fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body; it is the

the soundness of the body and the activities of the mind is subtle and complex.

intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity when the
body is healthy and strong; that hardy spirits and tough minds usually inhabit
sound gods. "
