Fitness is not just a matter of physicality, it’s a WAY OF LIFE.
Fitness is not just about physical strength, it’s about mental toughness and CLARITY.
Fitness is not just about trying to achieve good, it’s about BEING GOOD.
Fitness is not just about thinking positive, it’s about KNOWING GOOD.

At WWSC, fitness is totally different from the normal sense of the word. We think of fitness as more than just doing tons of cardio, or focusing on strength or endurance. We look at it from a ‘whole life approach.’

This understanding of fitness stems from an understanding, or philosophy, one might call it, of the way human beings were designed naturally. That is, human beings were made with the ability to do great things and yet have human limitations. At the same time, within these capabilities, human beings are supposed to be responsible for the roles they were made to hold in this life, including the stewardship of the human body.

That is why fitness is seen as an expression of a WAY OF LIFE, rather than being an end goal in itself. For example, a youth may pursue fitness out of vanity, having received bombardments of unrealistic body images from today’s media. At WWSC, we do not promote nor encourage the pursuit of fitness for this reason. Rather, we advocate the pursuit of health that stems from a mature desire to be strong enough to continue in other life responsibilities i.e. work, family, and community service.

We also believe that working out encourages mental toughness, as well as fosters the ability to remain focused to an end throughout lapses of motivation. This is an important ability for a teenager to get through the different seasons of change as he or she matures and faces more challenges in life. An ability to hold on to CLARITY when bombarded with multiple worldviews or opinions is a trait of strong character that we should build in young people.

Lastly fitness is about BEING GOOD and KNOWING GOOD when you see it. At WWSC, through physical training, they learn what it takes to be good, and they learn what it means to know good. They learn about themselves, their weakness, their flaws, and how much it takes to OVERCOME.
