Assessment of Students Physical Fitness by Using the Eurofit Test Battery

Abstract

The purpose of the present research is to determine the students’ physical fitness level, using the Eurofit test battery. If we determine it, we will have a benchmark based on which decisions must be made regarding the physical activity program that they have to carry out in daily activities. In conclusion we can say that the most important effects of the program applied for 12 weeks were over: static strength of the upper limbs, dynamic strength of the upper body, segmentary speed of the arms, body balance. The limitation of the study is given by the number of participants, but it opens the way to further such studies involving more subjects, to be conducted on a longer and a palette of means more diverse to determine the influence that the components of fitness have in young people and students.
