Athletes must have a solid foundation in a variety of athletic attributes in order to tolerate the gradually increasing training loads and competitive demands of their chosen activity. While physical fitness testing can cause embarrassment and anxiety, strategies can be developed to encourage students to put forth their best effort, provide positive feedback on skill development, and encourage students to set fitness goals that can be met through developmentally appropriate physical activities. The main goal of the study was to find proof that fitness tests can be used to measure athletic potential.
