Being healthy means being fit. This sounds easy but executing it proves to be difficult. The Singapore government encourages us to stay healthy. In fact, private organizations join the call of the government for a healthier society.

We are actually in the right track. Healthy and fit people are now commended. For example, there is a competition that aims to seek the fittest people here in Singapore. The competition is called ELITE 2015 and it already started on April 19, 2015.

There were many contestants. The Men’s Open award went to John Cheah and the Women’s Open award went to Chew Feng Yi. It did not end there because Team Mobilus was also awarded for displaying camaraderie.

There are Singaporeans who were inspired of the display of a healthy life but there are others that simply ignore it. If we want to be healthy, we have to think of two elements. These elements are interconnected. This means that overall healthy life cannot be achieved without the presence of the other. Here are the two elements:

• Diet: Healthy life is not only pure exercise. This is what others believe. We have to know that diet plays a vital role in ensuring a healthy life. We have to make the right decisions even when eating. If we want a professional advice, we can always employ the help of dieticians and nutritionist. If this is expensive, we can just research.
• Exercise: Let us not devout all our time in exercise. Yes, exercise is very important but not to the point to straining the body too much. We can also ask the help of personal trainers because they of all people know how to maximize exercise.

Now that we know the elements, we have to make this happen.
