Period 7 Advanced Weight Training Blog #2 Fitness Testing

We are in the middle of fitness testing.  Fitness testing is not always the most fun thing to do but it is important.  For this weeks blog let me know why you think fitness testing is important.  If you don't think it is important defend your reasoning.

Also check out  Bubba's Belly Run it is being held in a couple of week right down the street.  The proceeds go to a good cause and I plan on running it.  I encourage all of you to get involved in health and fitness events in the community and I will highlight several as the year progresses.

  3. I don't think it is important because it does not matter how well you do on the fitness testing, as long as you are always trying your hardest in class.

  5. Fitness trying is important because it gives you a baseline allowing you to tailor your workout to focus on your weakness because strengthening your weaknesses will make you stronger overall.

  10. I believe that fitness testing is important because it gives you a better idea of what you are capable of and it allows you to set goals to work to for later in the year. This is a good way to work on areas you are typically weaker in and really improve on your stronger areas too by pushing yourself to your limits.

  14. Fitness testing is important because it gives you a baseline to work from; it allows you to know what you are starting from when you begin working out, and so that you can track your progress better at the end of the semester.

  16. Fitness testing is important because not only does it show if you are in-shape/healthy it also gives you a reason to compete with yourself and get more fit over the year.
