PRACTICAL - 1: FITNESS TESTS ADMINISTRATION: SAI KHELO INDIA TEST
Purpose
BMI is a reliable indicator of body fatness for most people. It is used to screen for weight categories
that may lead to health problems. This calculator provides BMI and the corresponding weight
category.
Infrastructure/Equipment Required
Flat surface, Weighing Machine, metric stadiometer /Measuring Tape pasted
on a wall
Procedure
Measuring Height Accurately
Remove the participant’s shoes and hair ornaments. The participant stands
with feet flat, together, and back against the wall. Make sure legs are straight,
arms are at sides, and shoulders are level. Make sure the participant is looking
straight ahead and that the line of sight is parallel with the floor. Take the
measurement while the participant stands with head, shoulders, buttocks, and
heels touching the flat surface (wall). Lightly mark where the bottom of the
headpiece meets the wall. Then, use a metal tape to measure from the base on
the floor to the marked measurement on the wall to get the height
measurement. Accurately record the height to the nearest 0.1 centimeter.
Measuring Weight Accurately
Use a digital scale. The participant removes shoes and heavy clothing, such as
sweaters. The participant stands with both feet in the center of the scale. Record the
weight to the nearest decimal fraction (e.g., 25.1 kilograms).
Scoring
The BMI may be determined using a table which displays BMI as a function of mass and height using
contour lines or colours for different BMI categories, and which may use other units of measurement
The following formula is used to calculate BMI:
Category BMI
Underweight <18.5
Normal weight 18.5-24.9
Overweight 25 – 29.9
Obesity Class I 30 – 34.9
Obesity Class II 35 – 39.9
Obesity Class III > 40
Purpose
The test is used to check the ability to balance successfully on a single leg. This single leg balance test
assesses the strength of the leg, pelvic, and trunk muscle as well as static balance.
Equipment Required
Stopwatch, metal beam 50cm long, 5cm high and 3cm wide (the beam is stabilized by two supports at
each end, and should have a non-slip surface)
Procedure
Stand on the beam. While balancing on the preferred leg, the free leg is flexed at
the knee and the foot of this leg held close to the buttocks. Stand just like a
“flamingo”. The participant keeps balance by holding the instructor’s hand then
the watch should be started as the instructor lets go.
The stopwatch must be stopped each time when the person loses balance, either
by falling off the beam or letting go the foot behind being held.
Scoring:
The total number of falls or loss of balance in 60 seconds of balancing is
recorded.
If there are more than 15 falls in the first 30 seconds, the test is terminated.
Plate Tapping Test
Purpose
The objective of the test is to measure the student’s speed and coordination of limb movement.
Equipment Required
Table (Adjustable height), Yellow discs (20 cm), Rectangle (30x20cm), Whistle and Stop watch
Procedure
If possible, the table height should be adjusted so that the subject is
standing comfortably in front of the discs. The two yellow discs are placed
with their centers 60 cm apart on the table. The rectangle is placed
equidistant between both discs. The non-preferred hand is placed on the
rectangle. The subject moves the preferred hand back and forth between
the discs over the hand in the middle as quickly as possible. This action is
repeated for 25 full cycles (50 taps).
Scoring
The time taken to complete 25 cycles is recorded. Performed the test twice and the best result is
recorded.
Purpose:
To determines acceleration and speed
Infrastructure/Equipment Required:
Measuring tape, marked track, stopwatch, cone markers, flat and clear surface of at least 60 meters.
Procedure:
Before start, warm up should be given, including some practice starts. Start from a stationary position,
with one foot in front of the other. The front foot must be on or behind the starting line. This starting
position should be static. The starter commands ‘Ready” and “Go” and encouraged to continue running
hard through the finish line.
Scoring:
Time taken for completion, time is noted in seconds up to the 10th of a second.
600mt Run/Walk
Purpose
To measure Cardiovascular Fitness/Cardiovascular Endurance
Equipment Required
Stopwatch, whistle, marker cone, lime powder, measuring tape, 200 or 400mts flat and even
playground with a marking of starting and finish line.
Purpose
In this test item a subject runs a distance of 600mts. The subject takes a standing start from the start
line. Walking is permitted but the objective is to cover the distance in the shortest possible time.
Scoring
The time taken to run the distance is recorded in minutes and seconds.
Purpose
The sit and reach test was first propounded by Wells and Dillon in 1952. This test is widely used as
normal test of flexibility and specifically measures the flexibility of the lower back and hamstring
muscles.
Equipment Required
Sit and Reach box with the following dimensions: 12" x 12" (sides) 12" x 10" (front and back) 12" x
21" (top) Inscribe the top panel with centimeter/mm gradations. It is crucial that the vertical plane
against which the subject's feet will be placed is exactly at the 23 cm mark. Flat clean cushioned
surface/Gym Mats

First of all, shoes and socks should be removed. Then sit
down on the floor with legs stretched out straight ahead.

Both the knees should be locked and pressed flat to the
floor. An assistant may hold the knees down. Palms
should be facing downwards. Hands should be on the top
of each other or side by side. The individual, whose
flexibility is to be measured, tries to extend his both hands
forward along the measuring line on the box as far as he
can extend. His finger tips of both hands should remain
equal and at the same level. He should not jerk or bounce
to reach at maximum distance. He should hold the full reach position for one-two seconds and the
score should be recorded. Generally in such test warm up is not allowed, however, the results can be
attained after suitable warm up.
Scoring
The score is recorded to the nearest centimeter or half inch as the distance reached by the fingertips of
both hands.
Strength Test
Purpose
The curl up test measures abdominal muscular strength and endurance and core stability.
Equipment Required

straight on the sides (palms facing downwards) closer to the
ground, parallel to the body. The subject raises the trunk in a
smooth motion, keeping the arms in position, curling up the
desired amount (at least 6 inches above the ground towards the
parallel strip). The trunk is lowered back to the floor so that the
shoulder blades or upper back touch the floor.
Scoring
Record the maximum number of Curl ups in a certain time period 30 seconds.
Purpose
To measure upper body strength, endurance and trunk stability
Equipment Required
Flat clean cushioned surface/Gym mat

body must be held straight throughout.
For Girls: push-up technique is with the knees resting on the ground.
