If you like to go fast then 100's are the way to go, and are the choice of most fitness skaters. 70's are slower but more maneuverable so if you skate on really crowded trails or if you like to get fancy when you skate, they might be your best bet. I've never tried 3 wheelers but I assume they're more maneuverable than 4 wheelers.
Skating is a great choice for a fitness activity. In my experience, it is 2nd only to XC skiing as a total body workout. It is still best to add a few other activities to your regimen like running, cycling, swimming, dancing etc. for maximum fitness.
Have fun and stay safe!
