USING THE FIT TEST PROGRAM

The FIT TEST program is a five
minute sub-maximal fitness test that
measures cardiovascular fitness
and can be used to determine the
exerciser's general fitness level. It is
a great way for individuals to gauge
exercise improvements over time.
For best results it is best to take the test under similar circumstances each
time you take the test. Results may be dependent on the following factors:
• amount of sleep the previous night (minimum of six hours is
recommended)
• time since last exercise (minimum of six hours is recommended)
• time since last meal (minimum of two hours is recommended)
• time since last caffeinated or alcoholic beverage (four hours is
recommended)
• time of day
SET-UP
The exerciser will be asked to enter Age, Gender, Weight, and Activity Level.
The activity level range is from 1 to 10.
Younger, taller and higher weight individuals are recommended to use higher
values, while older, shorter and lower weight individuals should use lower
levels. In cases of excessive weight, the user should use the lower values.
