Fitnessgram is a comprehensive fitness assessment battery for youth.  It includes a variety of health-related physical fitness tests designed to assess cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, and body composition.

Fitnessgram is also a report card that summarizes the child’s performance on each component of health-related fitness.  Fitnessgram can be used by students, teachers, and parents.  Students can use Fitnessgram in planning their personal fitness program; teachers can use it to determine students needs and help guide students in program planning; and parents can use it to help them understand their child’s needs and help the child plan a program of physical activity.
