The book presents the health benefits of exercise and the concept of wellness, then discusses fitness evaluation and principles of exercise for health and fitness; the relationship between nutrition, health, and fitness; exercise, diet, and weight control; exercise in specific environments and for special populations; prevention and rehabilitation of exercise-related injuries; disease prevention and stress management; and life time fitness.
