Importance of Fitness Testing

By: Obadiea Jones


  

Fitness tests are basically tests conducted by fitness trainers on people who are fitness training themselves so that they can monitor the progress of their clients. Fitness testing is a very serious and important activity for all those people involved seriously in fitness training or those people who workout and just want to make sure that their physical health is in order. Usually, fitness trainers will also make beginners undergo fitness training because it is often taken as a bench mark and then their particular fitness training schedules are settled around the results of their fitness tests.

A lot of people believe that these evaluations are unnecessary but nothing can be as important as initial fitness evaluations to gauge the amount of work you will need to put in during the life of your fitness training. Usually athletes and sports player will undergo these fitness tests on a regular basis to determine their progress and to see if further improvement is required or not. The trainer will also tell them the kind of protein supplements the bodybuilders or athletes should include in their diet, including proteinpulver, protein bars and which ones to include.

Normally, a competent trainer will perform these basic but important steps on each of his/her clients starting a new training cycle and at specific points during their training cycle. The tests performed before the training cycle can be of two types; the first are the ‘resting’ tests involving resting heart rate, resting blood pressure and body composition. The second type of test is based on your physical performance and includes flexibility evaluations, aerobic endurance and low-impact muscular endurance. Examples of some of these tests would include the treadmill stress test, sit and reach, shoulder stretch etc.

When mentioned that these tests act as an important benchmark, it was meant that if the client is exercising too much or too less, then their fitness training schedule can be re-arranged according to that. Plus, knowing whether or not you are fitness training adequately is important because you don’t want to be over working your body, something that could lead to muscle injuries or even worse. On the other hand, you don’t want to be under working yourself either and feeling disappointed at the lack of positive results. Fitness tests will be able to prevent such confusions and the problems that could result from such confusions.
