PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In this project, a functional physical test is performed on an adult which meets scientific standard for reliability and validity. This test has been performed with a simple, easy to use test items which helped in assessing the functional fitness and actual performance of the adult. This test was performed using developmental procedures acquired from ”Senior fitness test manual” to implement the test safely and accurately using the equipment required. Also, the test was administer and scored as per the manual.
INTRODUCTION
a functional fitness test is a progression of tests directed in a clinical setting that reflect the actual requests of the particular position an applicant will be examined in. Based on customized analysis this test were developed to take note of physical requirements for performing positional tests and in this project, we performed the following tests:
Chair Stand
Arm Curl Test
2-Minute Step Test
Chair Sit-and-Reach Test
Back Scratch Test
8-Foot Up-and Go Test
Introduction to subject focused in this project
The person involved in this project is brother of mine. He is 60(suppose) years old male with an activity level from beginner to moderate. These exercises have been performed by the subject under safe and vigilant circumstances. All the steps required to perform the exercises mentioned in the project were shown in a demonstration to the subject and were accurately performed. The subject has performed these activities with utmost conviction and in a cooperative manner.
Pictures of subject performing the test
These are the photos of subject performing ARM curls(8LB resistance band) here the subject was moving the elbow position instead of stabilizing and moving the arms to perform curls.

Fitness skilled identified as weaknesses
ARM CURLS
Client needs to maintain current workout routine with an improved accuracy on doing bicep curls especially with proper range of motion. Adding weights to bicep curls or adding tension to muscle strands would improve strength in muscle fibers and its stretch range and making sure not to involve shoulder. This is one of the exercise with low arm strength.
CHAIR SIT/ REACH
Client needs to maintain current workout routine with an improved accuracy on doing CHAIR SIT. In the flow of the exercise, especially when stretching to touch the feet, the knee joint isn’t straight enough and has a bent knee which defeats the purpose of the exercise itself. Regular stretching would help in proper form of exercise where lower back and knee are placed in proper form.
POSITIVES IN PERFORMING THE assessment
The exercises were performed accurately with proper form and in vigilant conditions, subject were monitored and been assessed with proper count, recorded in the test sheet. To and fro communication between the subject and myself helped the subject to learn about the exercises and perform them for the targeted area.
What would you do differently next time
Would educate and help in stretching earlier and then would record for the testing as I could see that the subject was getting better results as they spend a while before we see better results for the same exercise. Hence, warming up before taking the results for the test would help in getting better results.
THANK YOU
