The CORPORATE FITNESS ASSESSMENT programme aims at helping individuals assess his/her fitness level(s). Benefits of this programme include:

• Knowing your current fitness status
• Diagnose specific weaknesses
• Evaluation of programme
• Predict future performance and potential
• Motivational tool
Educating the concepts of physical fitness
• Risk stratification

Participants can choose from the following forms of assessment:

1. FITNESS ASSESSMENT - WALK is an ideal starting point for anyone seeking an active and healthy lifestyle. It asseses an individual's fitness level over a 2km walk. It is also prescribed as a basic exercise for all Singaporeans, especially those who are mostly inactive in most sports or lead a sedentary lifestyle.

It is also ideal for senior citizens and housewives starting out on their individual assessments.

 

2. FITNESS ASSESSMENT - RUN is an excellent way to measure cardiorespiratory (aerobic) fitness. It covers 2.4km and it is possible to assess your physical condition in terms of cardiovascular fitness based on the time taken to complete the distance.

 

3. FITNESS ASSESSMENT - NAPFA contains test items that measure both health-related components of fitness (i.e. cardiorespiratory or aerobic fitness, muscular strength and flexibility) as well as performance related fitness components (i.e. muscular endurance, muscular power, agility and speed). This assessment is useful in gauging one's level of overall fitness at any time. It is particularly helpful in identifying areas of weakness for remedial work and for evaluating the effectiveness of an exercise program that preceeds the test.

It could also be used as a general test of fitness for safe participation in sports.

 

4. FITNESS ASSESSMENT - StepFITT requires the participant to step up and down on the platform at a rate of 22 steps per minute for females and at 24 steps per minute for males, for a total of 3 minutes. The participant immediately stops on completion of the test, and the heart beats are counted for 15 seconds from 5-20 seconds of recovery.
