Body Mass Index (BMI)
Calculate BMI using the formula:
Muscle Strength (Upper Body)
Measure and track using standardized tests like the bench press for maximum repetitions or maximum weight lifted.
Muscle Strength (Lower Body)
Measure and track using tests such as the leg press max or squat max.
Body Fat Percentage
Measure and track with methods like skinfold measurements, bioelectrical impedance, or hydrostatic weighing.
Grip Strength
Measure and track using a handgrip dynamometer and compare the readings over time to assess changes.
Resting Heart Rate (RHR)
Track by measuring pulse when at rest, ideally in the morning after waking up, before getting out of bed.
Blood Pressure
Measure and track with a sphygmomanometer, ensuring consistent conditions each time for accurate tracking.
VO2 Max
Measure and track VO2 max with graded exercise tests on a treadmill or cycle ergometer, using gas analysis equipment.
Flexibility
Track flexibility through tests like the sit-and-reach test to measure the flexibility of the lower back and hamstring muscles.
Cardiovascular Endurance
Measure and track using aerobic tests such as the VO2 max test or the Cooper 12-minute run test.
