Important: For best results, sit and rest for at least five
minutes before you take the test. Be sure to use a heart
rate chest strap.
To see how your performance level increases with
exercise over time, try taking the fitness test as soon
as possible after you install the equipment. Then, as
you keep working out, take the fitness test from time
to time and watch your results improve. After you
complete a test, the final result appears in Fitness
Score, which you can find in the Workouts section.
Refer to the following two tables to compare your
fitness level to typical levels for your age and gender.
