FitnessGram is a complete battery of health-related fitness items that are scored using criterion-referenced standards. These standards are age and gender specific and are established based on how fit children need to be for good health. FitnessGram is a health-related fitness assessment and computerized reporting system. One of the unique features of the program is that it allows teachers to produce individualized reports for each student in a class. The reports provide feedback based on whether the child achieved the criterion-referenced standards for physical activity or fitness. The use of health-related criteria helps to minimize comparisons between children and to emphasize personal fitness for health rather than goals based on performance.
FitnessGram includes a variety of tests designed to assess cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, muscular endurance, flexibility and body composition.
