 Let’s Explore and Discover
Nowadays, people become less physically active
Unlocking of Difficulties
because of various reasons and one of those is brought
by the advancement of science and technology. Many • Skill-Related Fitness -
are no longer participative in any fitness-relevant enhances one’s
activities. We are aware of the health benefits and performance in athletic or
importance derived from engaging in physical activities, sports events.

Unfortunately, many young people do not engage in is the ability to become and
worthwhile exercises or physical activities anymore. stay physically healthy.
This may be due to your youth and your ability to

and enjoy life.
Try to look back and reflect on your day’s activity. Do you have lots of energy, or do you get
tired easily?

Physical fitness - is divided into four health- and six skill-related components.

Health Components Skill Components

Cardiorespiratory fitness Agility
Muscular strength and endurance Balance
Flexibility Power
Body composition Speed
Coordination
Reaction time

Skills-Related Fitness

Speed -is the ability to perform a movement in one direction in

a short period of time.

40 Meter Sprint
(Test should be done in the presence of a facilitator or an adult family member.)

Purpose: to measure running speed

Equipment: a. Stopwatch
b. Running area with known measurement (40 meters)

12
Procedure:
For the Performer:
1. At the signal “Ready”, stand behind the take-off, the tips of the shoes should not go
beyond the line and assume a crouch position.
2. At the signal “Get Set”, assume an un-crouch position (Buttocks ups) with both hands
on the starting line.
3. At the signal “Go”, run to the finish line as fast as you can and stop once you crossed
the finish line.
4. Set the stopwatch to zero (0) point.
5. Time will start when you start to run and stop the clock when you crossed the finish
line.
6. Record time in the nearest 0:00:01 second.
Scoring: Record the time in nearest minutes and seconds.

Power – ability to produce maximum force in the shortest time.

Standing Long Jump

(Test should be done in the presence of a facilitator or an adult family member.)

Purpose: to measure the explosive strength and power of the leg muscles
Equipment: Tape measure/meter stick or any measuring device

Procedure:
1. Stand behind the take-off line with feet parallel to each other, the tips of the shoes
should not go beyond the line.
2. Bend knees and swing arms backward once, then swing arms forward as you jump as
far as you can.
3. Do not control the momentum of the jump (continuously move forward).

4. Perform the test twice in succession.

5. Place zero (0) point of the tape measure at the take-off line.
6. After the jump, spot the mark where the back of the heel of either of your feet has
landed nearest to the take-off line.
7. Record the distance of the two trials.
Scoring: Record the best distance in meters to the nearest 0.1 centimeter.

Agility -is the ability to move in different directions quickly using a combination
of balance, coordinator, speed, strength and endurance.

Hexagon Agility Test

(Test should be done in the presence of a facilitator or an adult family member.)

Purpose: to measure the ability of the body to move in different direction quickly
Equipment:
a. Tape measure
b. Stopwatch
c. Chalk or masking tape Hexagon Size
d. Length of each side is 24 inches (60.5cm)
e. Each angle is 120 degrees.
1
Procedure:

1. Stand with both feet together inside hexagon facing

the march starting side.2
2. Using the ball of your feet with arms bent in front,
jump clockwise over the line, and then back over
same line inside the hexagon. Continue the pattern
with all the sides of the hexagon.
3. Rest for one (1) minute.
4. Repeat the test counterclockwise.
5. Record the time of each revolution.
6. Restart the test if you jump on the wrong side
or steps on the line.
7. Add the time of the two revolutions and divide by 2 to
get the average.
Scoring: Record the time in the nearest minutes and seconds.
Reaction Time -the amount of time it takes to respond to a stimulus.

Stick Drop Test

Purpose: to measure the time to respond to a stimulus
Equipment: a. 24-inch plastic ruler or stick
b. Arm chair or table and chair

Procedure:
1. Sit on an armchair or chair next to the table so that the
elbow and the lower arm rest on the desk/table
comfortably.

3. Do this 3x.
4. Let someone drop the stick at the top, allowing dangling
between the thumb and fingers of the performer.

even thumb and the index finger. No part of the hand
of the performer should touch the ruler/stick.
6. Drop the ruler/stick without warning and let the
performer catch it with her thumb and index finger.
Scoring: Record the middle of the three scores
(For example: if the scores are 21, 18, 19, the middle score is 19).

Coordination -is the ability to use the senses with the body to perform motor
task smoothly and accurately.

Juggling

Purpose: to measure the coordination of the eye and hand

Equipment: Sipa (washer with straw) 20 pcs. Bundled rubber bands/any
similar local materials.

1
Procedure:
1. Hit the sipa/rubber band/similar local material
alternately with the right and left palm upward.
The height of the material being tossed should
be at least above the head.
2. Count how many times you hit the material with
the right and left hand.
3. Stop the test if the material drops on the floor.
Scoring: Record the number of hits has done.

Balance -is the maintenance of equilibrium while stationary

or while moving.

Stork Balance Stand Test

Purpose: to assess one’s ability to maintain equilibrium

Equipment: a. Flat, non-slip surface b. Stopwatch

Procedure:
1. Remove the shoes and place hands on the hips.
2. Position the right foot against the inside knee of the left foot.
3. Raise the left heel to balance on the ball of the foot.
4. Do the same procedure with the opposite foot.
5. Start the time as the heel of the performer is raised off floor.
6. Stop the time if any of the following occurs:
• the hand(s) come/s off the hips
• the supporting foot swivels or moves (hops) in any direction
• the non-supporting foot loses contact with the knee
• the heel of the supporting foot touches the floor.
Scoring: Record the time taken on both feet in nearest seconds.
