I Did a Senior Fitness Test

I found this senior fitness test on YouTube.  Senior Fitness Test: How Fit Are You? - YouTube . This is based on the Fullerton Functional Fitness Test.  I thought I’ll just see how far above all the other seniors I was.

Unfortunately, it didn’t go that well.  On most tests, I was *average*.  Sigh. I did better on the Endurance test, but not so good on the flexibility test.

My results:

• Lower Body Strength: Target Range : 16-18 Me 18
• Upper Body Strength: Target Range : 15-21 Me 21
• Aerobic Fitness: Target Range : 86-116 Me 180
• Lower Flexibility: Target Range : -3 to +3 Me -3
• Upper Flexibility: Target Range : -7-5 to +1 Me 1.5

Give it try and post your results in the comments.
