2. A.
Anthropometri
c Measurement

3. It is the vertical distance
from the sitting surface to
the vertex (top) of the head.
It is the length of the
trunk, neck, head and
buttocks.

4. The ratio of sitting height to
the standing height is relevant
to performance in a number
of sports like jumping events.
The longer the legs relative to
the trunk, the better.

5. •A tape measure and spirit
level used to find the
standing height.
• A 30-centimeter bench
with a flat, even surface.

6. Example:

7. Arm span measurement is a simple
measure that is important in the
anthropometrical profiling of athletes in
many sports in which reach is important,
such as rowing and basketball. See also
the related arm length measure, which is
the length of each individual arm.
purpose: To measure arm length, as long
arms may be advantageous for some
sports which involve reaching and

10. B. Muscular
Power Test

11. A standing long jump is often used as a
functional test to assess leg power, but the test
may underestimate the athlete’s true potential
if the athlete does not use the best possible
technique. The selection of takeoff angle is
one of the most important technique variables.
Masaki Wakai studied the effects of changes in
takeoff angle on performance in the standing
long jump. The aim was to identify the
optimum takeoff angle and to explain the

12. •Tape measure accurate to
0.1 centimeter at least 3
meters long.
•Tri-square

14. Purpose: This test measures
your upper body strength
and power, and your ability
to exert a forceful
movement, utilizing the
muscles of the arms and the

15. A size 7 basketball and a
15-meter long throwing
area.

16. This test measures speed.
A stopwatch or wristwatch
with a second hand is
needed to get the time of
each performer. A clapper
may be used by the starter.

17. Stop watch

18. Draw two parallel lines 50 meters apart, one
to be used as starting line, and another to
serve as finish line.
Let the performer/s stand behind the starting
line.
On signal “Go” or upon hearing the sound of
the clapper, the performer leaves his/her
mark to run as fast as he could up to the
finish line.
Record the time spent by the performer in
