2. Cardiovascular Endurance
Cardiovascular Endurance The heart's ability to deliver blood to working muscles and their ability to use it (e.g. running long distances)
Engaging in physical activity for long periods of time (example: a cross-country runner or marathon runner)
The 20m beep test.
Continuous running however miss the beep three times out.
Cooper 12-minute Run Test:

3. Flexibility
Flexibility - the ability to achieve an extended range of motion
(example: a gymnast doing a leg split)
Sit and reach: The sit and reach test is a common measure of flexibility, and specifically measures the flexibility of the lower back and hamstring muscles.
equipment required: sit and reach box (or alternatively a ruler can be used, and held between the feet)
Procedure: After a proper warm-up and stretching, the subject is seated on the ground with the legs fully extended in front of them, feet eight inches apart, toes pointed upwards, and soles of the feet flush with the base of the sit and reach box

4. Muscular endurance
Muscular Endurance – Using muscles repetitively without fatiguing (example: long-distance cycling or using a rowing machine).
Push up test Upper body(how many push ups in a minute)
Sit Ups : Core (how many sit ups can you do in 1 minute)

50 meter sprint
Use stop watch to measure speed.
Equipment Cones and stop watch

7. Creation of a fitness plan and fitness test Assessment
Step 1:
Using the smart goals sheet set a goal for fitness component out of speed, flexibility, muscular endurance, body composition and Cardiovascular Endurance.
Write the goal. Ensure it is specific, realist, relevant and achievable

8. Step 2:Get in partners: Write a ten minute warm up for your partner
Step 2:Get in partners: Write a ten minute warm up for your partner. Must include stretches and mobilizing exercises such as jogging
