Morphology

superfit = fit (transparent) = super + fit

The intensifying prefix 'super-' is added to the adjective 'fit' to mean 'very fit', a straightforward and productive formation.

Etymology

The word superfit combines the prefix super- meaning 'above' (as in superstar) and the common word fit meaning 'in good shape'. So superfit is like 'more than fit' and means extremely healthy and strong, often from regular exercise.
