"Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. The relationship between the soundeness of the body and the activities of the mind is subtle and complex. Much is not yet understood. But we do know what the Greeks knew: that intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity then the body is healthy and strong."
- John F. Kennedy
Reflection: Kobe Bryant would not be able to be the great and amazing player he is today if he did not take care of his body. He exercises everyday to help him maintain his shape. He wouldn't have gotten the opportunity to be one of the greatest players to have ever lived and become so intelligent of the game if he didn't spend so much time into his body. It keeps his mind at ease and his hard work in fitness pays off in the court when he reads the defense and is able to determine which is the best spot to take a shot from or if he should pass the ball.
