If you can, with 1 or 2 strength sessions per week you should start to improve. Circuit works as large muscle groups and make 2-3 sets and 12-15 repetitions.

3 Flexibility:
It is the range of motion of a joint, it is also the ability of your muscles to adapt by lengthening the different degrees of joint movement.

4. Body Composition

It refers to the relative amounts of muscle, fat, bone, and other vital body parts. The fastest and easiest way to calculate this relationship is the BMI (Body Mass Index) is a simple formula that can be applied only knowing our weight and our height. Once you have that data, you only have to apply this formula and verify the data of the table.

BMI = weight (kg) / height (m2) (squared)
Example, BMI = 65 kg / 1.75 x 1.75; BMI = 65 / 3.06; BMI = 21.24
Divide your weight in kg between your height in meters squared, so easy.
Women Men Assessment

BMI gives us an interesting fact from the perspective of health and physical activity and sport. We must bear in mind that the data sometimes are not entirely objective, especially in the case of athletes. It may be that people with athletic build, present a priori mark indexes overweight. This is because this calculation does not take into account lean mass, so you have to know how to interpret the results. If you are an athlete you know that if you have a value above 26 will probably have major difficulties in the disciplines of strength and advantage in strength, and if you have values ​​below 20 just the opposite. In general I must say that if you're in values ​​below 17 or above 30 are at risk and you should consult your doctor to begin to change and enjoy a healthier life.

HEALTH: WHO defines this as a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease.

According to the Foundation for Nutrition Research, 42% of Spaniards never done any physical activity.
