Assess Your Current Fitness Level


So where are you now? We recommend to all of our new clients to determine at least a few things about your current health and fitness level so you can set some realistic goals and so we can have a snapshot of where you are now, for measuring your progress.


The following basic assessment test events and their corresponding desired standards for physical fitness represent a compilation of nationally accepted fitness test standards for ages 18 and older. Your Optimal Health and Fitness Personal Trainer will use some of these test events to assess your readiness for the Santa Cruz Boot Camp or to establish a baseline for your own personal training. Please Note: your Instructor will use different assessment events based on our initial conversation.


Optimal Health and Fitness will test you on the following areas to assess where you are in relationship to your physical self. It is intended to give you a snapshot of the big picture of your current fitness level. Also, note that no basic fitness assessment can precisely predict actual athletic performance or how well you will perform at specific training activities. Every score - no matter how perfect or how poor - can be improved with focused training.
