The 6 fitness tests that i have carried out on Alex blogs are muscular endurance, strength, aerobic endurance, power, flexibility and speed. I have safely set up each of the tests that are listed above in which he will perform with maximum effort, each test will test a different aspect of Alex's fitness and will determine how much he can handle or last for.
The first test that i conducted on Alex was the muscular endurance tests, in this test i asked him to perform press ups and sit ups for a time period of two minutes; in these two minutes he was not allowed to take a break as the test was to see how many press ups or sit ups he could do it that time period even if muscles begin to fatigue.

He moved onto doing the flexibility tests after this and for the flexibility he performed then sit and reach test and in this he got a score of 35cm.
