What are the three parts of the health triangle? Name one benefit of each side of the health
triangle?
Physical Health, Mental/Emotional Health, and Social Health. Physical activity benefits your physical health by increasing your energy, strengthening your bones, helping the lungs and heart to work more efficiently, improving coordination, improving balance, allowing for better sleep, and burning calories. Physical activity benefits your mental/emotional health by allowing you to handle
stress and challenges better, improving self-esteem, increasing your concentration abilities, and allowing you to think more
clearly. Physical activity benefits your social health by building your confidence in social settings, allowing you to meet new people, developing your conflict resolution skills, and improving your ability to
work on a team.
