Prof Grant Schofield talks to us about fitness. Is fitness medicine?

“I get asked a lot about fitness and diet. People pit the two against each other as two independently healthy behaviours – should you have a good diet or should you exercise? Hello? Would you rather have your left foot or your right arm amputated? The answer is none. They’re both independently important.”

Being fit is one of the single, most important things you can do in your life. Fitness is medicine.
