Fitness is a broad term that means something different to each person, but it refers to your own optimal health and overall well-being. Being fit not only means physical health, but emotional and mental health, too. It defines every aspect of your health. Smart eating and active living are fundamental to fitness.
Fitness as a term is contextual. I would describe it as “being fit for taking on challenges set in front of you.” One should always be mentally fit and physically fit.
Being mentally fit is important for critical thinking in daily operations. Being physically fit is important so you are able to handle the physical challenges life puts in front of you, including but not limited too:
- Walking up stairs
- Moving house-hold items around
- Playing with your children
- Competing in sports
- Being able to do anything in life that brings you pleasure
- Watching your weight by eating healthy
- Gym and many more
Often times our doctors, employers, insurance firm will recommend fitness plan to keep us health or we might choose to do it as our daily routine been what we will love to do and track our progress and share it with friends. But How about getting paid sharing our fitness data? That’s what Lympo is out to achieve. Let’s take a look at Lympo.
The planned Lympo ecosystem is for the use of health fitness trainers, sports coaches, health and fitness app developers, health insurers, sports and wellness businesses, gyms, health and fitness startups, and investors. The ecosystem would allow one to harness, control, and sell personal health data in a P2P fashion, eliminating third-party control of personal health data and lack of compensation for the re-sale of such data.
Currently Lympo has no working product Although there is a claim that a MVP has been produced
