How to
Use Your
Results
The best way to use the results of a fitness test is to track your
progress in an exercise program. Test yourself about every two
weeks, under closely similar conditions.
You can also use the results of a fitness test to find how you
compare with an average population. Find your score in the chart
below in the proper column for your age group. (Data is from
ACSM Guidelines, from 1994 research from the Institute for
Aerobics Research in Dallas, Texas.)
