About testing
Detailed instructions related to the fitness measurements are available in an online Test Manual. The knowledge on measurement details is pivotal to obtain valid results. Remember to foster the basic psychological needs and promote a mastery-oriented climate to facilitate enjoyment and diminish anxiety within students during fitness testing.
FitBack is for all students. If the student cannot perform the FitBack measurements according to the Test manual for example due difficulties in seeing, hearing, moving, focusing, or understanding, a more suitable test can be selected to meet the student’s individual needs. You can find instructions and tips how to conduct testing in an adapted manner in the guide on Recommendations on physical fitness monitoring of children with special needs – Applied FitBack.
