Fitness Testing

Today in Fitness Ed, we did fitness testing. We did fitness testing at the beginning of the semester, then we set goals for the semester, and we did testing today to see if we reached our goals. Personally, the only thing that I don't like about fitness testing is the Pacer test. Nobody enjoys doing it and I think that sometimes, a different test should be given. In class, we learned that there are 3 different tests that can be given to measure a students cardiorespiratory endurance, the Pacer test, a 1.5 mile run, and a 1 mile walk. While all are challenging, I think it would be beneficial to administer these different tests sometimes. Doing the Pacer test over and over again is not enjoyable and it would be nice to do something different for a change.
