Your Health & Fitness Style:
When it comes to fitness, Capricorns have the persistence to
go the distance. Your sign rules structure and goals, so you do well
with routines. Getting started is the challenge. An earth
sign, you tend to get stuck in bad habits, and can be lazy at times. Capricorns
are workaholics, so you'll easily brush aside fitness for your career
obligations. It helps to think of fitness as a long-term professional
investment that will give you the
energy to produce more results.
Because Capricorns like achievements, try competitive team sports, especially ones with medals and trophies (you love to win!). Your lower legs are powerful (Capricorn rules the knees), and you have lots of stamina. Cross–country running, hiking, mountain biking, marathons, competitive soccer or rugby appeal to you. Long walks, jogging or competitive sports will help you release tension. A steady sign, you make a great surfer, like Capricorn Kate Bosworth. Time alone is important to you, so make time to catch a sunset or take a few Zen moments to yourself.
Capricorns worry like no other sign. You can literally make yourself sick. Any illness you suffer is probably stress-induced, a result of holding too much inside or being too hard on yourself. Caps are prone to obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression and addictions, like Capricorn Kate Moss. See a therapist if you're struggling with heavy thoughts or out-of-control behavior.

Balancing work and rest is key. Capricorns can sleep for hours, so schedule and all-day snooze marathon at least once a month. Connecting to the earth, your ruling element, grounds you. Treat yourself to a motorcycle or Vespa ride, or rent a convertible sports car. If that's too flashy for your earthbound sign, hop on a mountain bike and explore some rugged terrain. Mountain climbing is especially suited to Capricorn, as you're symbolized by the mountain goat.
