Health is the state of well-being in which all of the components of health are in balance. These state of well-being comprises of six (6) important components and they are; physical, emotional, social, environmental, mental and spiritual. When an individual is able to balance all of the aforementioned components, then he or she is said to be healthy and by extension a good body composition.

Additionally, an individual can develop a good body composition by exercising properly, eating a well-balanced diet and regularly checking their body mass index (BMI).
