How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter Student Age, Gender (0=Male, 1=Female), and Curl-Ups (count in 1 min).
  2. Set Shuttle Run (seconds), Pull-Ups (count), and Sit-and-Reach (cm).
  3. Adjust 1-Mile Run (minutes) as needed.
  4. Review the Composite Percentile result.
  5. Use Curl-Ups Percentile and Shuttle Run Percentile to inform your decision.

What each input means

Student Age
Age in years (norms available for ages 6-17).
Gender (0=Male, 1=Female)
0 for male, 1 for female. Affects percentile norms.
Curl-Ups (count in 1 min)
Number of curl-ups completed in 1 minute.
Shuttle Run (seconds)
Time to complete the shuttle run agility test (lower is better).
Pull-Ups (count)
Number of pull-ups completed (or flexed-arm hang equivalent).
Sit-and-Reach (cm)
Sit-and-reach flexibility measurement in centimeters.
1-Mile Run (minutes)
Time to complete 1-mile run in minutes (lower is better).

What each result means

Composite Percentile
Overall fitness percentile across all 5 tests.
Curl-Ups Percentile
Percentile ranking for abdominal strength.
Shuttle Run Percentile
Percentile ranking for agility.
Pull-Ups Percentile
Percentile ranking for upper body strength.

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Student Age = 12, Gender (0=Male, 1=Female) = 0, Curl-Ups (count in 1 min) = 25, Shuttle Run (seconds) = 11 = 7 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Composite Percentile
    Composite Percentile = number): string {
    36 = 36
  3. Calculate Curl-Ups Percentile
    Curl-Ups Percentile = zToPercentile(zCurlUps)
    21 = 21
  4. Calculate Shuttle Run Percentile
    Shuttle Run Percentile = zToPercentile(zShuttleRun)
    42 = 42
