hands and feet on the floor, and the abdomen arches
up toward the sky. It may be entered from a supine
position or through a less rigorous supine backbend,

(Mountain Pose), or by standing with the back,to a
wall, reaching arms overhead and walking hands
down the wall toward the floor. Advanced
practitioners may also follow wheel with any of its

FITNESS TEST
Sn aBody Mass Index(BMI
PURPOSE:-
Body mass index(BMI) is a medical screening tool
that measures the ratio of your height to your
weight to estimate the amount of body fat you
have. Healthcare providers calculate BMI by using
weight in kilograms (kg) divided by the square of
height in meters (m2).
In most people, BMI correlates to body fat — the
higher the number, the more body fat you may
have— but it’ snot accurate in some cases.
BMI alone does not diagnose health. Healthcare
providers use BMI and other tools and tests to
assess someone’ s health status and risks.Body Mass Index(BMI
EQUIPMENTS:-
Body mass index is a simple tool that estimates body fatness
using a mathematical formula. The only instruments
necessary to measure your BMI are a scale, a tape measure —
to determine your height -- and a calculator. If you're unsure
exactly how to estimate your BMI, talk to your doctor. Your
doctor will most likely calculate your BMI every time you go
in for a check-up or a sick visit.

PROCESS:-
With the metric system, the formula for BMI is
weight in kilograms (kg) divided by height in
meters (m) squared. Since height is commonly
measured in centimeters (cm), an alternate formula
can be used—divide weight in kg by height in cm
squared, and multiply the result by 10,000.

Sprint or speed tests can be performed over varying
distances, depending on the factors being tested
and the relevance to the sport. The 50 Meter Sprint
is part of the International Physical Fitness Test,
and their protocol is fisted here.
‘The aim of this test is to determine acceleration
and speed.
EQUIPMENTS REQUIRED:-
measuring tape or marked track, stopwatch,
cone markers, flat and clear surface of at least 70
meters.50m Speed Test
‘The test involves running a single maximum sprint
over 50 meters, with the time recorded. A thorough
warm up should be given, including some practice
starts and accelerations, Start from a stationary
standing position (hands cannot touch the ground),
with one foot in front of the other. The front foot
must be behind the starting fine. Once the subject is
ready and motionless, the starter gives the
instructions "set" then 'go.". The tester should
provide hints for maximizing speed (such as keeping
low, driving hard with the arms and legs) and the
participant should be encouraged to not slow down
before crossing the finish line.600m Run And Walk

now majorly used as a standard flexibility
test. The sit and reach test evaluates hip flexibility,
including the lower back and hamstring muscles. In
general, there is a higher risk of injury due to the
region’ s lack of flexibility. It’ s also associated
with mild lordosis and back pain in the lower areas.

number completed correctly inside the time limit.
When the Person’ s head returns to the mat, the
curl up is complete. The total capacity of curl-ups
allowed is 75.
“Incorrect curl up performance includes:
“+ If a person cannot make contact with the mark,
or raise their shoulders 2 inches off the floor,
their shoulders will not tough the mat on the
way down.
“+ Pauses and rest time are not permitted in
between partial curl-up tests. The motion must be
constant and cadent on each repetition, and the
head must return to the mat.
“+ When the student has two corrections, the test is
over.Push Ups:-
PURPOSE:-
he press-up or the push-up exercise is a very popular exercise
used in upper extremity training. It is a closed Rinetic chain
exercise that requires no tools and uses the body weight for
resistance. It has many variations, so it can be adjusted
according to the fitness level. They work the triceps, pectoral
