This document provides definitions and methods for testing, measuring, and evaluating performance in sports. It defines tests as tools used to evaluate skills, knowledge or abilities, measurement as collecting data about an individual's performance using tests, and evaluation as making judgements by comparing data to criteria. It outlines several common tests and measurements for assessing components of health-related fitness like cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, endurance and flexibility. These include the Harvard step test, Kraus-Weber test, 600m run, and sit-and-reach test. The document also provides methods for measuring body composition, such as calculating BMI and using skin fold measurements.

Effect of Aerobic Training on Percentage of Body Fat, Total Cholesterol and H...IOSR Journals
Abstract: The aim of the present research was to determine the effect of aerobic training on Percentage of
Body Fat, total Cholesterol (TC) and High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) among obese Children.
For this purpose, 20 obese Children (age17-25) were selected. The subjects received endurance training only
one session in the morning between 6-7 am for three alternate days a week for six weeks. To analyse the
collected data,'t'-ratio was used at 0.05 level of confidence. The results showed that there were significant
changes in Percentage of Body Fat, TC and HDL-C. It was concluded that the aerobic training is widely
believed to induce changes in the lipid profiles and Percentage of Body Fat of Children.

Narrated Business Proposal for the Philadelphia Eaglescamrynascott12
Slide 1:
Welcome, and thank you for joining me today. We will explore a strategic proposal to enhance parking and traffic management at Lincoln Financial Field, aiming to improve the overall fan experience and operational efficiency. This comprehensive plan addresses existing challenges and leverages innovative solutions to create a smoother and more enjoyable experience for our fans.
Slide 2:
Picture this: It’s a crisp fall afternoon, driving towards Lincoln Financial Field. The atmosphere is electric—tailgaters grilling, fans in Eagles jerseys creating a sea of green and white. The air buzzes with camaraderie and anticipation. You park, join the throng, and make your way to your seat. The stadium roars as the Eagles take the field, sending chills down your spine. Each play is a thrilling dance of strategy and skill. This is what being an Eagles fan is all about—the joy, the pride, and the shared experience.
Slide 3:
But now, the day is marred by frustration. The excitement wanes as you struggle to find a parking spot. The congestion is overwhelming, and tempers flare. The delays mean you miss the pre-game excitement, the tailgate camaraderie, and even the opening kick-off. After the game, the joy of victory or the shared solace of defeat is overshadowed by the stress of navigating out of the parking lot. The gridlock, honking horns, and endless waiting drain the energy and joy from what should have been an unforgettable experience.
Our proposal aims to eliminate these frustrations, ensuring that from arrival to departure, your experience is extraordinary. Efficient parking and smooth traffic flow are key to maintaining the high spirits and excitement that make game days special.
Slide 4:
The Philadelphia Eagles are not just a premier NFL team; they are an integral part of the community, hosting games, concerts, and various events at Lincoln Financial Field. Our state-of-the-art stadium is designed to provide a world-class experience for every attendee. Whether it's the thrill of game day, the excitement of a live concert, or the camaraderie of community events, we pride ourselves on delivering a fan-first experience and maintaining operational excellence across all our activities. Our commitment to our fans and community is unwavering, and we continuously strive to enhance every aspect of their experience, ensuring they leave with unforgettable memories.
Slide 5:
Recent trends show an increasing demand for efficient event logistics. Our customer feedback has consistently highlighted frustrations with parking and traffic. Surveys indicate that a significant number of fans are dissatisfied with the current parking situation. Comparisons with other venues like Citizens Bank Park and Wells Fargo Center reveal that we lag in terms of parking efficiency and convenience. These insights underscore the urgent need for innovation to meet and exceed fan expectations.

7. Calculation of B.M.I
Body Mass Index
BMI of any individual can be calculated with the help of the following formula.
Body weight
Body Mass Index (BMI) = --------------------------
Height × Height
or
Body weight (in Kg)
----------------------------------------------
Height × Height (in Metre)
Here the weight of the individual’s is measured in kilograms and the Height of that individual is
taken in meter.
7
8. Example 1: Calculate the BMI of a male person whose body weight is 80 kg and his
height’s 1.60 m. Also state the category in which he falls?
Solution:
Body weight = 80 kg Height = 1.60 m
Weight (in Kg)
BMI = -----------------------------------------
Height × Height (in Metre)
= 80 80 × 100 8000
----------------- ---------------- -------- = 31.25
1.60 × 1.60 16 × 16 256
He falls obesity type I.
BMI is categorized below: BMI Table
Category BMI
Under weight < 18.5
Normal weight 18.5–24.9
Over weight 25.0–29.9
Obesity class I 30.0–34.9
Obesity class II 35.0–39.9
Obesity class II > 40.0

9. Calculation Waist-Hip ratio (W.H.R.)
Waist-hip ratio is defined as the measurement of waist circumference divided by Hip
circumference.
It is used as a risk factor assessment tool for heart diseases, Hypertension and Type-II
diabetes. Excess body fat is considered a risk factor of deceases.
Waist circumference (in inches)
Waste hip ratio (W.H.R.) = -------------------------------------------------
Hips circumference (in inches)
9
10. Waist-Hip ratio (W.H.R.) Table
Waist-Hip Ratio (Males)
BMI < 0.85 0.85–1.0 > 1.0
20 to < 25 Very low Low Moderate
25 to < 25 Low Moderate High
30 to < 25 Moderate High High Very
35 to < 25 High Very high Very high
> 40 Very high Very high Very high
Waist-Hip Ratio (Female)
BMI < 0.70 0.70–0.85 > 0.85
20 to < 25 Very low Low Moderate
25 to < 25 Low Moderate High
30 to < 25 Moderate High High Very
35 to < 25 High Very high Very high
> 40 Very high Very high Very high
10
11. Example 1: If an individual (male) waist circumference measurement is 30 inches
and hip circumference measurement is 44 inches. Than calculate his waist hip
ratio. Also state the category of his health risk.
Solution:
Waist circumference = 30”
Hip circumference = 44”
Waist circumference
W.H.R. = --------------------------------------
Hips circumference
30
= ------- = 0.68
40
It means the individual (male) is not at health risk. In case of male if the W.H.R. Is
more than 1.00, than he is at the health risk.
11
12. Example 2: If the waist circumference measurement of a female is 30 inches and her
hip circumference measurement is 32 inches. Then calculate her W.H.R.
Solution:
Waist circumference = 30”
Hip circumference = 32”
Waist circumference
W.H.R. = --------------------------------------
Hips circumference
30
= ------- = 0.93
32
In case of female, if the W.H.R. Is more than 0.85, she is at the health risk. Therefore
above W.H.R. of a female is under very high health risk.
