Some questions may require several answers.

1. Which test fits the following description? A test for VO2 Max (the maximum amount of oxygen which can be inspired and used per minute). Continuous running between two lines 20m apart in time to recorded beeps.

   1.   ?       Multi-stage shuttle run (bleep test).
   2.   ?       Harvard Step Test.
   3.   ?       12 minute run.
   4.   ?       Strength Test.

2. What does the following test measure? Skinfold Measurement- the tester pinches the skin at the appropriate site to raise a double layer of skin and the underlying tissue, but not the muscle.

   1.   ?       Body Composition (% fat levels of the body).
   2.   ?       Aerobic fitness.
   3.   ?       Anaerobic fitness.
   4.   ?       Bone size.

3. BMI (Body Mass Index) is often used to determine the level of health risk associated with obesity. It takes a person's weight in kilograms and divides it by their height in meters squared. Which one of the below is most correct?

   1.   ?       BMI can be inaccurate, for example with large and muscular though lean athletes scoring high BMI levels which incorrectly rates them as obese.
   2.   ?       BMI is extremely accurate. If takes hard measurements and thus allows you to see if you are clinically obese or not.

4. What is the following test called and what does it measure? The athlete stands side on to a wall and reaches up with the hand closest to the wall. Keeping the feet flat on the ground, the point of the fingertips is marked or recorded. The athlete then stands away from the wall, and jumps vertically as high as possible using both arms and legs to assist in projecting the body upwards.

   1.   ?       Sargent Jump - Power in the legs.
   2.   ?       Sargent Jump - Aerobic lung capacity.
   3.   ?       Sit and Reach test - Flexibility in the legs.
   4.   ?       Standing Long Jump - Leg strength.

5. What does the following test measure? ......Time to run a set distance is recorded. Usual distances measured are 10, 20, 40 and/or 50 metres or yards. There are variations on how the tests are carries out, but as long as the same test is used each time, then comparisons can be made.

   1.   ?       Speed.
   2.   ?       Endurance.
   3.   ?       Strength.
   4.   ?       Agility.

6. What is the following test called and what does it measure? This test involves sitting on the floor with legs out straight ahead. Feet (shoes off) are placed flat against the box. Both knees are held flat against the floor by the tester. The athlete leans forward slowly as far as possible and holds the greatest stretch for two seconds.

   1.   ?       Sit and reach test - Aerobic Capacity.
   2.   ?       Sit and reach test - Flexibility in the hamstrings.
   3.   ?       Standing broad jump - Power.
   4.   ?       Reach your toes test - tests "touchy toes" capability.

7. What does the following test measure? A sphygmomanometer is used to take recordings. A “cuff” is attached to the arm and inflated to temporarily stop blood from getting past the cuff. The pulse rate in the arm is listened to as the pressure in the cuff is gradually released. The pressure at which the first sounds are heard (systolic pressure) and the pressure when all sounds disappear (diastolic pressure) are recorded to give a result.

   1.   ?       Blood pressure.
   2.   ?       Blood thickness.
   3.   ?       Hear rate.
   4.   ?       Oxygen Carrying Capacity

8. What does the following test measure? The person stands on one leg for as long as possible. A variation on this is to do it with the eyes closed to make it harder. As long as repeat tests are carried out the same way, it can be a good way of testing.

   1.   ?       Balance.
   2.   ?       Strength in the supporting leg.
   3.   ?       VO2 Max.
   4.   ?       Dynamic flexibility.

9. What does the following test best measure? A standard zig zag course is set up with four cones placed on the corners of a rectangle. The athlete runs a course in the shortest possible time. There are many variations on this type of test. One variation is called "the Illinois" test.

   1.   ?       Agility.
   2.   ?       Balance.
   3.   ?       Power.
   4.   ?       Strength
   5.   ?       Aerobic Capacity.

10. An important principle of fitness testing is that the tests are carried out in exactly the same way each time they are completed so that results are comparible. This allows for many variations on tests to suit exactly what you are trying to assess. True or False?

    1.   ?       True
    2.   ?       False
