YALETOWN FITNESS QUESTIONNAIRE
Do you consider yourself strong, fit and capable? Take the Cooper Test and find out how well you compare to your peers. These tests of strength and endurance give you an objective way to measure your fitness and set goals for the future. The figures in the charts below came from research on 1000s of people, so every time you test yourself, you will have a clear comparison to people your age.
Before you begin, please warm up with a brisk walk or light jog (5-10 min) and a few gentle stretching exercises. Note: Please get clearance from your doctor before taking any strenuous fitness test like the Cooper Test.
Cardio Test Instructions: Go to a 400 meter track (at a school) or measure a distance of 1.5 miles on a flat surface. After warming up, run / walk 1.5 miles at your best effort. When you are finished, compare your results with your age group in the table below
Upper body strength testing
Place a folded towel or cushion (3 inches tall) under your chest. Space your hands shoulder width apart and keep your back straight. Do as many push ups as you can without resting, touching your chest to the cushion each time. When you are finished, see your results in the tables below.
Note: This test is modified for ladies. The push ups are done on your knees. During the push ups, do not lift your rear end in the air. Maintain a straight line through your body–from your head to your knees.
VO2 Max
Athletes’ fitness test and an important health measurement tool.
VO2 Max is a measurement of your body’s ability to absorb and consume oxygen during exercise. A high VO2 allows you to tolerate high intensity exercise for a long time. Average values with ratings for men and women are in these charts.
Improving your cardio fitness may be the most efficient way to improve your overall health. A review of 33 studies found that improving your cardio fitness by just 3.5 points (about equal to improving from good to excellent on the chart), will lower your risk of premature death from any cause by 13%!. (1) You’d get similar health benefits by reducing your waist by 7 cm or lowering your blood pressure by 5 points.
The next 2 charts show the optimal levels of fitness for lowering your risk of cardiovascular disease, based on research from the Cooper Institute.(1)
How can you determine your cardio fitness level? If you’re new to exercise, or just not into jogging, the Rockport Walking Test is the best cardio fitness test for you. Enter your time for a one mile walk and your heart rate into our calculator and you’ll get your fitness score plus exercise recommendations!
If you’re the athletic type, the Cooper 1.5 mile run test will work well for you.
If you choose the Cooper Test, these charts show the 1.5 mile times that match the optimal, average and high-risk VO2 levels for men and women your age.
