What are the best ways to test your fitness level?

Answer 1

• Take your heart rate or pulse.

Answer 2

A fitness test typically assesses aerobic fitness, muscular strength/endurance, flexibility, and body composition. Before starting a workout routine, complete a group of exercises that test these areas and record the number of repetitions completed in a certain amount of time. Repeat the same exercises a few weeks after starting and compare the results.

Answer 3

There are a variety of fitness tests that can be easily completed at home, in order to determine aerobic fitness level or muscular strength and endurance. By completing as many pushups or crunches as possible, and recording the data, it is possible to return to that information at a later date and assess positive changes. The same can be done for a 1-mile walk test; measuring how long it takes to complete the mile and reassessing as time goes by will give a positive indicator of changes to fitness level.

Answer 4

You can not measure if a person is fit or not. Most certainly you can tell by looking at their physical shape. Heart related problems indicate that the person is not fit, while good stamina indicates that he or she is fit.

Answer 5

ECG and blood pressure helps in rating your own cardiovascular fitness.

Answer 6

From your Body Mass Index.
