Manitoba Schools Fitness 1989.

This manual outlines physical fitness tests that may be used in the schools. The tests are based on criterion standards which indicate the levels of achievement at which health risk factors may be reduced. Test theory, protocols, and criterion charts are presented for: (1) muscle strength and endurance, (2) body composition, (3) flexibility, and (4) cardiovascular endurance. Graphs illustrate the desirable levels of achievement for these tests as well as levels which indicate a need for improvement. A sample student evaluation card and class composite record are included as well as a glossary of terms. (JD)
