Question

The correct formula to compute fitness index is ______.

विकल्प

• $$\frac{\text{Duration of Exercise (in sec.)} \times 100}{2 \times \text{Sum of six pulse counts after test}}$$

• $$\frac{\text{Duration of Exercise (in sec.)} \times 100}{2 \times 3 \text{ pulse counts after test}}$$

• $$\frac{\text{Duration of Exercise (in sec.)} \times 100}{5.5 \times \text{pulse count of 1 - 1.5 min. after exercise}}$$

• $$\frac{\text{Duration of Exercise (in sec.)} \times 100}{2.5 \times \text{pulse count of 1 - 1.5 seconds after test}}$$

Answer 1

The correct formula to compute fitness index is \[\underline{\boldsymbol{\frac{\textbf{Duration of Exercise (in sec.)} \times 100}{5.5 \times \textbf{pulse count of 1 - 1.5 min. after exercise}}}}\].

Explanation:

This is the short-form Harvard Step Test fitness index formula. It uses the duration of exercise in seconds and the pulse count between 1 and 1.5 minutes after exercise.
