At SICKNESS you have an overt disease, low quality of life, and are possibly no longer safe to live on your own.
At WELLNESS, your health markers are in the “normal range” (without medication) and you are currently able to complete tasks of typical daily living. You have a low buffer against disease though, and are at a higher risk of sliding into decrepitude when faced with aging, illness, or injury.
When your health markers are at FITNESS, you are able to easily complete the demands of typical daily living and participate in any sport or adventure that comes your way. You have a buffer of excess capacity to withstand the decline of aging (or an unexpected illness or injury) and still maintain quality of life.
It is possible to create “fake wellness” by medicating biomarkers into the normal range. However the only way to move health markers into the best third of the range is through lifestyle choices. There are no pills or procedures that can do this.
The CrossFit methodology of constantly varied, functional movement, executed at high intensity coupled with eating meats & vegetables, nuts & seeds, some fruit, little starch, and no sugar (whole, unprocessed foods) in quantities that support exercise but not excess body fat, plus consistent quality sleep is the most effective protocol to build the greatest buffer against the ravages of time and disease.
