## **SLMQ1SHSHOPE...** a. Observe whether the fingers touched or overlapped each other, if not, measure the gap between the middle fingers of both hands. b. Record distance in centimeters. ## **Scoring** Record zipper test to the nearest 0.1 centimeter | Score | Standard | Interpretation | |---|---|---| | 5 | Fingers overlapped by 6 cm. and above | Excellent | | 4 | Fingers overlapped by 4-5.9 cm | Very Good | | 3 | Fingers overlapped by 2-3.9 | Good | | 2 | Fingers overlapped by 0.1 - 1.9 cm | Fair | | 1 | Just touched the fingers | Needs Improvement | | 0 | Gap of 0.1 or wider | Poor | ## **Cardiovascular Endurance** Cardiovascular endurance is the ability of the heart, lungs and blood vessels to deliver oxygen to working muscles and tissues, as well as the ability of those muscles and tissues to utilize the oxygen. Endurance may also refer to the ability of the muscles to do repeated work without fatigue. ## **3-Minute Step Test** ### **Purpose:** To measure cardiovascular endurance. ### **Equipment:** * **Step:** Height of step: 12 inches * **Stopwatch** * **Drum, clapper, clicker, metronome with speaker or any similar device** ### **Procedure:** * **For the Tester:** * Stand at least one foot away from the step or bench with trunk erect and eyes looking straight ahead. * The first step of the sequence should be alternate. At the signal "GO", step up and down the step/bench for 3 minutes at a rate of 96 beats per minute. One step consists or 4 beats: up with the left foot (ct. 1), up with the right foot (ct. 2), down with the left foot (ct. 3), down with the right foot (ct. 4) for the first sequence. Then up with the right foot (ct. 1), up with the left foot (ct. 2), then down with the right foot (ct. 3), down with the left foot (ct. 4) for the second sequence. Observe proper breathing (inhale through the nose, exhale through the mouth). * Immediately after the exercise, stand and locate your pulse and in five (5) seconds, or at a signal, start to get the heart rate. * Don't talk while taking the pulse rate. * Count the pulse beat for 10 seconds and multiply it by 6. * **For the Partner:** * As the student assumes the position in front of the step, signals, "Ready" and "Go", start the stopwatch for the 3-minute step test. * After the test, allow the performer to locate his/her pulse in 5 seconds. * Give the signal to count the pulse beat * Let the performer count his/her pulse beat for 10 seconds and multiply it by 6. **Scoring** - record the 60-second heart rate after the activity. ## **Strength** Strength is the ability of a muscle or muscle group to exert force against a physical object ## **Push Ups** ### **Purpose:** To measure strength of the upper extremities. ### **Equipment:** * Exercise mats or any clean mat ### **Procedure:** * **For the Tester:** * Lie down on the mat. Face down in standard push-up position: palms on the mat about shoulder width, fingers pointing forward, and legs straight.
