How Fit Are You?
You might think you’re fit.
But are you ?
Find out with the President’s Challenge Adult Fitness Test.
It’s been designed by The President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports, a group of volunteers who advise the government and ultimately the President about fitness, physical activity, and sports in the U.S.
It measures your aerobic fitness, muscular strength & endurance, flexibility, and body composition by having you…
Walk one mile or run 1.5 miles and log in your time.
Count the number of half sit-ups you can do in a minute.
Count the number of push-ups you can do in a minute.
Do a sit-and-reach flexibility test.
Measure your height, weight, and waist.
The results are then entered and an evaluation and tips for improvement will be done.
As this was only launched yesterday, I doubt anyone has had the chance to try it out. But if you have, please let us know how it went…
hah. I read the subject title and answered the question right away: Not very.
Actually, the other day, I went for a 45-minute *very* brisk walk and expected to be quite sore the next day, and I wasn’t. So maybe I’m not as bad as I thought.
great minds….
challenged my readers to this today as well.
now (*sigh*) I guess I better do it too.
(unless you’ll write me a note to get out of it.)

hi marijke, sounds like you might be fitter than you realize…must be all the tennis on WiiSports.
Mizfit, sorry no note…but do let us know how you get on. Me, I think I’m going to spend the winter (in NZ) at the gym before I even consider testing myself. Just signing up at the gym (next week) is testing enough!!!
oooh. Im pretty fit! and thiscloseto40 Ill take it and GIGGLE that I beat the pants off my 13 year old self.
happy weekend.
You GO, MizFit. I need to take this test as well, but I have a feeling that with my beautiful a** affixed to this computer chair all the time, my results ain’t gonna be pretty. Wish me luck…
and, Liberty?
) AND if your fitness is half as good as yer humor (I laughed at the beautiful arse remark) you should be just fine!
(inquiring minds and all
happy weekend.
MizFit –
Can ye say “Procrastination”??? I’ll get around to taking this, I promise. But yanno, I’m not so sure I want to know the results. I’m a wuss that way. I quite like living in the delusional world of my own perfection. It’s a very happy place.
So maybe I’ll take it tomorrow. Or something. ;p
