Health and physical fitness have an integral role in holistic development. The fate of
our country for progress relies on people, who are healthy and physically developed. Students
aside from developing their academic skills and capability should also focus on enhancing
physical fitness to have a productive and prolonged life.
A life of a Grade 11 student must involve physical activities and being aware of health-
related fitness is a thrust that each should appreciate and inculcate as part and parcel of holistic
development. In view of this, a well-organized and carefully prepared set of health-related
testing protocol activities is prepared to help students assess fitness and to guide students in
conforming to the right diet practices integral for life- long health and fitness conscious
existence paving way for learners to become academically sound and physically fit as integral
facilitators of nation development.

Directions: Prior to any physical activity, it is just right to assess your general health through
the PAR–Q & YOU questionnaire. Fill up the PAR-Q as a pre-requisite to check readiness for
physical activity. Please fill-up and answer the questions honestly.
Regular physical activity is fun and healthy and increasingly more people are starting
to become more active every day. Being active is very safe for most people. However, some
people should check with a doctor before they start involvement in physical activities.
If you are planning to become much more physically active than you are now, start by
answering the seven questions in the box below. If you are between the ages of 15 and 69, the
PAR-Q will tell you if you should first check with your doctor before you start participating in
P.A.
Common sense is your best guide when you answer these questions. Please read the
questions carefully and answer each one honestly: check YES or NO.
YES NO
1. Has your doctor ever said that you have a heart condition and that you
should only do physical activities based on his/her
recommendations?
2. Do you feel pain in your chest when you do any physical
activity?
3. In the past month, did you feel any chest pain even if you were
not doing physical activity?
4. Do you lose your balance because of dizziness or do you ever
lose consciousness?
5. Do you have a bone or joint problem that could be made worse
by a change in your physical activity?
6. Is your doctor currently prescribing drugs (like water pills) for
your blood pressure or heart condition?
7. Do you know of any other reason why you should not do any
physical activity?

NOTE:
• If you answered YES to one or more questions, you need to talk to your doctor by
phone or in person BEFORE you start becoming much more physically active or
BEFORE you perform a fitness appraisal. Tell your doctor about the PAR-Q and the
questions you answered YES.
o You may be able to do any activity you want – as long as you start slowly and
build up gradually. You may also need to restrict your activities to those which
are safe for you. Speak with your doctor about the kinds of activities you wish
to participate in and follow his/her advice.
o Find out which community programs are safe and helpful for you.
o Start becoming much more physically active – begin slowly and build up
gradually. This is the safest and easiest way to go.
Take part in a fitness appraisal. This is an excellent way to determine your basic fitness
so that you can plan the best way for you to live actively.
Now that you have answered the pre-activity prior to Physical Activity.
Are you aware of the different Health-related fitness (HRF) components? Here
they are:
1. Body composition- a relative percentage of body fat compared with lean body mass.
Did you know that there are also reasons for an individual to not perform or do physical
activities? These are the following:
Procedure:
1. Height. Stand with trunk straight. Measure the distance from the floor to the top of the
forehead. Record the score in centimeters (cm).
2. Weight. Stand on a weighing scale free from any object for weight accuracy. Record
in kilograms (kg).
3. Waistline. Locate your upper hipbone. Find the proper spot by placing your hands
around your waist, squeezing slightly, and then moving your fingers downward until
you feel the top curve of your hips. Place a tape measure around your bare stomach
just above the upper hipbone. Record in centimeters (cm).
4. Hipline. Place tape measure in the widest part of hip in line with the pubis.
5. Computation/s
a. BMI- Body Mass Index – measure of body mass based on height and weight
that aid in determining weight categories.
b. Waist to Hip Ratio – measure stored body fats percentage by the relative
measurement of waist and hip.
Procedure:
1. Lie on your back on the floor beside a wall.
2. Slowly lift one leg off the floor. Keep the other leg flat on the floor.
3. Keep both legs straight.
4. Continue to lift the leg until either leg begins to bend or the lower leg begins to lift
off the floor.
5. Place a yardstick against the wall to mark the spot to where the leg was lifted.
Lower the leg.
6. Using a protractor, measure the angle created by the floor and the yardstick. The
greater the angle the better your score.
7. Repeat with other leg.
2. Zipper Test
Procedure:
1. In a standing position, raise one arm across you back, bend the elbow and reach
down as far as possible, simultaneously, bring other arm down and behind the
back trying to cross fingers over those with the other hand.
2. Measure the distance of overlapped fingers in cm. If they fail to meet the score as a
minus or <0. Write zero if the fingertips just touched with no overlap.
3. Repeat the procedure with the other hand. Record the score.
1. Curl – up (Dynamic)
➢ Purpose: Test abdominal muscles strength and endurance
➢ Equipment: Mat, Adhesive tape

legs align.
Girls: Support the body in a push–up position from the knees instead of toes,
with back, hip, and legs aligned.
3. Lower the body until the upper arm is parallel to the floor or a 90 degrees angle
of the bent elbow.
4. Repeat as many times as possible.
➢ Purpose: Test the muscular strength of the shoulder and upper arm
➢ Equipment: Mat, Stopwatch
➢ Goal: Hold the push – up position not more than 35 seconds
Procedure:
1. Use the Push-up procedure 1 & 2 for the preparatory position. From the
starting position, lower the body until the upper arm is parallel to the floor
and elbow flexed at 90 degrees.
2. Hold the position as long as possible.
3. Record the obtained holding position.
Procedure:
1. Stand close to the 12-inch bench box while partner will set the
metronome in 96 beats per minute (bpm).
2. When ready to begin, start the stopwatch, step one foot at a time to the beat
(up, up, down, down). When 3 minutes is up, stop immediately get your
pulse rate.
