A while back, I wrote about how GPP is basically just overall physical fitness. That may or may not be a helpful clarification; it leads to another question. Have you given any thought to what it means to be fit?A dictionary definition of the word fitness may be something like, “the ability to perform tasks” and is, in my opinion, perfectly adequate. So physical fitness would by extension be nothing more than the ability to perform physical tasks. An adequate definition, but not exactly an earth shattering concept. Knowing a definition is not understanding.
