Basic physical fitness and upkeep for all physically able humans.

Those with disabilities should have modified guidelines so that they too can be at the best of their physical ability. There will still be those that are taller, shorter, chubbier and skinnier...but we should all meet a minimum requirement as part of our public education.

We evolved to be physically fit since you couldn't go to a drive up Mickey D's and order a hamburger. However, now it is simply not needed other than to reduce health care costs.
