"Physical fitness" can mean several different things. Here are some examples:

  • how someone has progressed through a personal training program;
  • how well someone is able to perform certain standard gymnastic exercises;
  • how suitable someone is for doing a certain task or job.

Health-related components of physical fitness include body-composition, cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, muscular endurance, neuromuscular learning and strength. Skill-related components include agility(defined as the ability to move in any direction quickly), balance (in multiple dimensions) coordination (hand eye, foot eye,) reactions, rhythm, power, and speed (in all directions. The relative importance of each of the components varies for each person. (This information comes from Answers.com)
