Everyone is the architect of their own happiness

Not only is health a normal condition, but it is our duty not only to attain it but to maintain it.

Our interpretation of physical fitness is the attainment and maintenance of a uniformly developed body with a sound mind fully capable of naturally, easily, and satisfactorily performing our many and varied daily tasks with spontaneous zest and pleasure.
