I feel like I have improved a lot in my second fitness test, compared to the first test. For my twelve minute run, I have gone way higher; before my result was 414and now it is 4.4625. This happened because I have been jogging a lot more, increasing my endurance. I improved in my sit ups, achieving my goal of 40 sit ups that I made after the last test. My work on doing sit ups before bed has helped out, giving me the result I have today. For push ups, I got one more push up than last time. This happened since although I did sit ups before bed, I never got around to doing push ups as well because either I was sore after my sit ups or something else popped up. I am really pleased with my standing broad jump result because it has increased by
Lie on your back and place your finger on the cord behind your head. Keep your abs tight, raise your left knee to your right elbow touches. Do it for the right knee, and repeat this exercise 15 times a day.
After reviewing the data from the fitnessgram state test, the students need to improve their fitness levels. Between the six different fitness components, the assessments showed that students are struggling the
For this test I started with a 3-minute time for my 9th grade pretest, and then increased to a 5-minute time for my posttest that year. This year I got 4 minutes for my pretest, and improved to get another 5-minute time for the posttest. I kept a steady increase for my wall sit test, and started from 2 minutes on my 9th grade pretest, to getting continuous 5’s on the following. The next test was the crunch test, I started with 55 crunches for my 9th grade pretest, and kept a steady increase getting 61, 61 and 65 for the following tests. For the push-up test, I got 21 pushups for my 9th grade pretest, and 30 for my 9th grade posttest. The following year I got 20 pushups for my pretest, and 21 pushups for my posttest. The final test we were graded on was the sit & reach; I continuously increased in this test. I started with 5.5 inches, increased to 6 inches for both the 9th grade posttest and 10th grade pretest, and then increased to a final of 6.5
As with the previous two phases the athlete will undergo another series of assessments. This time however the assessments will be different. Whereas before we were looking at areas of explosive strength in sprinting and weighted exercises, this time the emphasis will be placed on cardiovascular endurance. The assessment we will be primarily focused on will be a 1.5 mile run for time and heart rate. The reason we are focused on heart rate is to find his optimal heart rate for prolonged distance. Using a heart monitor we will have him preform the test three time and average of the three heart rates will be the target number. He will of course be allowed a 10 beats per minute cushion to allow for factors that are beyond our control like atmospheric issues such as heat and humidity, and any delayed onset muscle soreness(fitnessschoolbook). Again once all the data has been analyzed we will begin the last phase of the training regime.

CSS PHYSICAL FITNESS ASSESSMENT (PFA). Cycle 2 of 2017 PFA will commence 13 NOV 17 at 0730 and end 17 NOV 17 at 0730. All medically cleared servicemembers are required to participate. All leave and TAD requirements are to be managed accordingly.
This year’s Blue and You fitness challenge comprised of 16 Levi employees . During the 3 month period, participants had to log in their exercise activities as a way to increase his/her points in order to place first , second or third place in the 15-17 participant category. Levi Hospital averaged a total of 138 points, which caused us to place either 1st , 2nd or 3rd in our category. On July 6 our President and CEO Pat Mcabe along with a couple of Levi employees attended the Blue and You ceremony held at the Statehouse Convention Center in Little Rock, AR. Levi hospital won 1st place in the 15-17 category. Also, Levi received recognition along with a certificate for the Southwest region category of the Hospital Challenge. Levi received a
To begin, throughout PE 9 and 10 we have partaken in a variety of fitness assessments. In the running and superman tests there was a slight decrease in my scores, while in the wall sit and plank test, I maintained. The crunch, swim, push up, bench, and sit and reach test all produced a nice increase in score.
I think the major reasons for this improvement is the dry land work that I participated in during my high school swim season. Theses workouts focused on building abdominal strength and muscular endurance. The next fitness test was the push up test, my baseline for pushups in September was ten push ups. My score increased to twelve. Although it was not as much of large improvement as my sit-ups, I still think it reflected the strength I had gained throughout the high school swimming season. Following the push up test was the pacer test. On my first time running the pacer test I finished the test at fifty-two lengths of the gym. Last week, I finished sixty lengths of the gym. I was proud of my accomplishment because I think it demonstrated my increased endurance over the past three months of training. My endurance increased because of interval training at practice along with running outside the pool. My last two two fitness tests were the sit and reach test and the trunk lift. Both of these tests work on flexibility which tends to be one of my weaknesses. At the beginning of the year on the sit and reach test I got sixteen inches on both legs. At the end of the year I finished with
This statement concerns the letter of counseling I received on 06 October 2016 regarding my omission of not attending a scheduled mandatory Fitness Assessment on 27 September 2016.
I have improved quite a lot in my fitness testing, in this class. The area I believe is my strongest, is the cardiovascular endurance fitness component. I believe that this is my strongest component not because of the results at the beginning or specifically at the end of the testing but the improvement between the 1st and 3rd fitness session. In the beginning of my cardiovascular component, I got a 4.4 result in the beep test, which later improved to a 5.4. To me this is a great improvement because I was able to challenge myself and do better on that part of my testing. Also, for the skipping test I began with a result of 1:20 min then 2:10 min, this gradually increases in between the two testing periods. However, for the third fitness testing I was able to skip for a full 10 minutes with 2 lives.
In regards to my second fitness goal, which was to raise my overall level of strength, I believe that my progress has been going well and that I may be close to achieving my goal very soon. I plan on performing many more exercises to do so, and so far it has been working well since I had noticed that my strength is slowly increasing over time. Perhaps I may need to change a few exercises in my exercise routine so that I can achieve this goal much
Introduction: In this experiment, cardiovascular fitness is being determined by measuring how long it takes for the test subjects' to return to their resting heart rate. Cardiovascular fitness is the ability to "transport and use oxygen while exercising" (Dale 2015). Cardiovascular fitness utilizes the "heart, lungs, muscles, and blood working together" while exercising (Dale 2015). It is also how well your body can last during moderate to high intensity cardio for long periods of time (Waehner 2016). The hypothesis is that people who exercise for three or more days will return to their resting heart rate much faster than people who only exercise for less than three days.
Some of my scores did not surprise me but they were disappointing. During the cardiovascular endurance test my heart beat was 119 beats per minute. I was expecting this and was not surprised at all because I have always avoided doing cardio, the most I do is walk my dog, take the stairs, or use the elliptical. I cannot even remember the last time I ran. Actually, I thought I was going to do a lot worse. The flexibility test, I had a lot of confidence going into it and was not surprised to be in the good range with a score just above 18.75 inches. During the balance test, which was the hardest out off all of them, I had a disappointing score of 21
Starting point: Fitness testing is the starting point for improvement in the future, one of the first benefits in physical testing is understanding your results and understanding where you stand, your strengths and weaknesses, how you’re going to design an efficient training program etc. it gives a insight of what you need to work on for further improvement, an Example for fitness testing includes cross country. For the cross many fitness components are used e.g. cardiorespiratory system which efficiently provides oxygen to the working muscles in the body. The testing required for cardiorespiratory testing Is the beep test, the beep test will help to successfully determine the state of you breathing in distance achieved and how far you can withstand and the pace you’re able to
