Simple at home Fitness Tests, part 3

Last week we tested you on your Core strength. This week is all about your resistance strength. Press up exercises can help you gauge your ability to perform a body weight resistance exercise.

 Press ups

  •  Perform as many press ups as you can in one go.

•   Ensure you go all the way down to the floor. Select the appropriate level of difficulty for you, either on your knees (half press ups) or a full press up on your toes. 

Your results:

  • Level 1 = 1-10 half press ups
  • Level 2 = 10-25 half press ups
  • Level 3 = 1-10 full press ups
  • Level 4 = 11 + full press ups

How did you score? 

  • Level 1 = Weak area
  • Level 2 = Average
  • Level 3 = Good
  • Level 4 = Excellent!

Next week test your flexibility ………….
