It is important to take the Fit Test under similar circumstances each time. Heart rate is dependent on many
factors, including:
amount of sleep the previous night (at least seven hours is recommended)
!
time of day
!
time of last meal (two to four hours after the last meal is recommended)
!
time since last beverage containing caffeine or alcohol, or cigarette (at least four hours is recom-
!
mended)
time since last exercised (at least six hours is recommended)
!
For the most accurate Fit Test results, perform the Fit Test on three consecutive days and average the
three scores.
NOTE: To receive a proper Fit Test score, the work done must be within a training heart rate zone that is
60 percent to 85 percent of the theoretical maximum heart rate (HRmax). This rate is defined by the
American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" as equal to 220
minus an individual's age.
