1996年4月1日 · Results: The following tests appeared to provide acceptable reliability as methods for field assessment of HRF: standing on one leg with eyes open for balance, side-bending of the trunk for spinal flexibility, modified push-ups for upper body muscular function, and jump and reach and one leg squat for leg muscular function.

Testers must be properly trained to ensure reliable assessment of HRF of adults. This reliability assessment provided useful information on the characteristics of potential test items in a HRF test battery for adults and on the limitations of its practical use.

2019年10月22日 · This research aims to test, using factor analysis, a four-component HRF construct based primarily on the theoretical definition of HRF (Caspersen et al., 1985) but

fitness test battery for adults designed to be a tool health- related exercise promotion. The components of the health-re- lated fitness test battery are body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, motor fitness (coordination, balance), and musculoskele- tal fitness (flexibility, muscular strength and endurance). This

2008年8月15日 · Functional fitness is typically assessed using batteries that include a combination of health- and performance-related test (Table 1), including measurements of aerobic capacity, muscular strength and endurance, body weight and composition, flexibility, balance, and coordination [4] (Table 2).

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and health-related content validity of 6 health-related fitness (HRF) and 3 functional performance (FP) tests among middle-aged and older persons. Design: Cross-sectional methodologic study. Setting: Field laboratories in 3 …

Fitness assessments are a collection of fitness tests. Fitness testing has been around for years. It has been used by sports teams to measure the level of fitness of their athletes to see if training has effected their fitness level, helping to improve training techniques.

The aim of this study was to establish any correlation between participants' self-assessed health-related fitness (HRF) index and the HRF index determined by sports scientists, as well as the laboratory-assessed HRF index and maximum oxygen uptake (VO 2 max) determined by sports scientists via direct methods in a laboratory, and finally, to ...

Health-related fitness (HRF) is theoretically defined as a multidimensional construct containing the components cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength, muscular...

2002年5月1日 · The proposed test battery posseses content validity in relation to perceived health and functional ability and 4 of the 6 HRF tests (1-leg standing, trunk side-bending, knee-extension ROM, 1-km walk) and all of the FP tests (6.1-m walk, stair climb and descent, chair stand) can be safely applied to middle-aged and older adults when using the ...
