Do you remember taking the Presidential Fitness Challenge in grade school? I sure do. The running, push-ups, sit-ups and reaching? As recently reported on NPR, the President’s Council on Fitness and Sports has developed a version of this same test for adults (I’m having bad flashbacks already).
The Presidential Adult Fitness Test is broken into four parts:
- Aerobic Fitness Test: A 1-mile walk or 1.5 mile run
- Muscular Strength & Endurance Test: Half Sit-Ups and Push-Ups
- Flexibility Test: Sit & Reach
- Body Composition: Not too much body fat, especially around the belly
