'Gaining muscle and strength' ( per that SL site ) does not equate to fitness.
I'm very lean, not very muscular. I've never used a bench-press in my life. But I can outswim and outrun many 'buff' guys with rippling muscles, because they're utterly unfit.
- falcolas 13y agoSwimming and running are poor indicators of fitness (other than perhaps endurance, if you're swimming/running over a matter of miles). They require more technique than fitness. As someone nowhere near the traditional definition of "fit", I can still out-swim 99% of the people I run across at the gym over short-medium distances, simply because I have technique they don't have from spending 16 years doing competitive swimming.
