Sit Up and Press UP Test

These two strength tests measure muscular endurance. Your score is simply the number of repetitions you can perform in one minute.

Again you can adapt the tests any way you like. You could do chin ups or dips instead. Or you could use a light weight and do half squats. Just remember to perform the test exactly the same every time.

Testing Procedure
Not mush to write about here. Start the stop watch and perform as many good quality sit ups or press ups (depending which test you are doing) as possible.

For a sit up to qualify you must place you hands to the side of you head, bend your knees and keep your feet flat on the floor. Your elbows must touch your knees and someone should hold your feet for support.

*The scores for women's sit ups are based on the modified sit up -- placing your weight on you knees instead of your toes.
