FITNESSGRAM

The FITNESSGRAM is the State of California mandated physical fitness assessment given to students in grades 5, 7, and 9. Results determine if a student falls within the Healthy Fitness Zone for six individual tests as a measure of overall fitness.  The battery of tests include:

Mile Run or PACER

  • tests for aerobic capacity

Push-Up, Curl-Up, Trunk Lift, and Back Saver Sit and Reach

  • tests for muscular strength, endurance and flexibility

Skinfold Measurement or Body Mass Index (BMI)

  • determines body composition (BMI is determined in a formula that represents a relationship between height and weight.)

A student who falls within the Healthy Fitness Zone for all six tests may be considered “fit overall.” The results can be used to develop an individual fitness plan for each individual student to maintain lifelong wellness.
