FITNESSGRAM, Spring 2018
Students Tested
State and District Requirement
Grades 5, 7, and 9
All students in grades 5, 7, and 9 are required to participate whether or not they are enrolled in
a physical education class. NOTE: Only these state-mandated grades will be scored through
the district’s Physical Fitness Test contractor.
All students in grades 5, 7, and 9 who are on a block schedule, in alternate programs including
continuation, independent study, CDS, and non-public schools are required to participate.
All students must take physical education classes in high school for 2 years (freshman and
sophomore). Freshman students in 2008 were the first class required to “pass”
FITNESSGRAM in order to receive the exemption for physical education classes for 2 years
(junior and senior). A “passing” score is defined as meeting the healthy fitness zone for 5 out
of 6 components. Students who do not meet the healthy fitness zone in grade 9 or 10 will
continue to take physical education classes until they “pass” the FITNESSGRAM or graduate.
Grades 10, 11, and 12
Schools are responsible for tracking and testing students in grades 10, 11, and 12 who have
not met the healthy fitness zone in 5 out of 6 components of the FITNESSGRAM. Students
only need to retake those components they did not pass in order to meet the healthy fitness
zone in 5 out of 6 components of the FITNESSGRAM to qualify for the two-year physical
education exemption. Questions on how to maintain records of student progress on the
FITNESSGRAM, should be directed to Division of Instruction at (213) 241-6040.
Students Excluded from Testing
There is no parent opt-out for this test.
Students in grades 5, 7, and 9 who are physically unable to take the entire test battery must be
given as much of the test as their condition permits.
Students who are ill, injured, or enrolled for one-half or less of the work normally required for
full-time students are eligible for a temporary exemption.
A student may be eligible for a permanent exemption if they comply with one of the following:
(i) is 16 or older and has been enrolled in the 10th grade one academic year or longer; (ii) is
enrolled as a postgraduate student; or (iii) is enrolled in a juvenile home, ranch, camp or
forestry camp.
Test Purpose
This information is used by federal, state, county and local agencies to assess the physical fitness of
California students.
Schools receive both school summary and individual student information. These data are used by
schools to determine the areas of concentration for physical education classes whose minutes ofFITNESSGRAM – SPRING 2018
Page 3
instruction are required by law. Schools must maintain Fitnessgram results in students’ cumulative
records.
Program Requirements and Test Description
The State Board of Education designated the FITNESSGRAM as the Physical Fitness Test (PFT) for
students in California public schools. The FITNESSGRAM is a comprehensive, health-related physical
fitness battery developed by the Cooper Institute. The primary goal of the FITNESSGRAM is to assist
students in establishing lifetime habits of regular physical activity.
In order to be eligible to graduate from high school, all students are required to take four years of
physical education, unless the District grants an exemption. Effective July 1, 2007, the two-year
exemption will be available to a student if the student “Passes” the PFT administered in grade 9 or 10. If
the student does not meet the Healthy Fitness Zone criteria, the student must continue to take physical
education classes and test in the areas of weakness. If the student passes the 5 of 6 events they would
then be exempt. “Passing” is currently identified as achieving the healthy fitness zone is 5 out of 6 of the
components of the FITNESSGRAM.
The FITNESSGRAM is composed of the following six fitness areas, with a number of test options
provided for most areas:
Aerobic Capacity (select one)
- PACER (Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run)
- One-Mile Run
- Walk Test (only for ages 13 or older)
Abdominal Strength and Endurance (required)
- Curl-Up
Upper Body Strength and Endurance (select one)
- Push-Up
- Modified Pull-Up
- Flexed-Arm Hang
Body Composition (required)
- Body Mass Index
Trunk Extensor Strength and Flexibility (required)
- Trunk Lift
Flexibility (select one test; both left and right sides must meet the criteria)
- Back-Saver Sit and Reach
- Shoulder StretchFITNESSGRAM – SPRING 2018

ADMINISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS
Major Changes: 2017-18 Student Data Collection Forms will be Red in color.
Important Schools will receive pre-slugged answer documents only for students in
Reminders: grades 5, 7 and 9 after the testing window opens. Schools are not to wait for
the pre-slugged documents to start testing students.
The data collection process requires certificated staff to administer the PFT to
students and to record the results on the Student Data Collection Form.
2018 Training: Fitnessgram Coordinators and teachers are required to participate in the 2018
Fitnessgram training in the Learning Zone. When returning materials to the
Testing Center, the Fitnessgram Coordinator will submit copies of the certificates
of completion from the Learning Zone.
Students to be All students enrolled (including the physically handicapped) in grades 5, 7, and 9
Tested: must be tested. This includes students in alternate programs including
continuation, independent study, CDS and non-public schools.
Students not enrolled in a physical education class during the testing window due
to a state-approved waiver for block scheduling, must still be tested. Schools on a
block schedule where students do not receive physical education for extended
periods of time (weeks or months), must ask the State Board of Education (SBE)
for a waiver or be in violation of Education Code (sections 51210 and 51222). A
copy of the Physical Education Block Schedule Waiver Criteria can be located on
the internet at http://www.cde.ca.gov/be/ms/po/policy99-03-June1999.asp.
Secondary schools are responsible for testing students in grades 10–12 who have
not “Passed” the FITNESSGRAM. Students only need to retake those
components they did not pass in order to meet the healthy fitness zone in 5 out of
6 components of the FITNESSGRAM to qualify for the two-year physical education
exemption. These schools are responsible for monitoring student progress and
maintaining student records. The Student Testing Branch will only collect and
report data for students in grades 5, 7 and 9.
Students Who Students physically unable to take the various test components should be
May be Excluded: administered as many parts of the tests as his or her condition will permit.
Nonetheless, the individual student’s welfare and safety are given first
consideration. A conference with the school nurse may be necessary.
The Individual Education Program (IEP) or Section 504 Plan team is responsible
for deciding how students with disabilities will participate in the PFT. See Matrix of
Variations, Accommodations and Modifications for Administration of the CAHSEE,
CELDT, and PFT at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/ai/caasppmatrix2.asp.
Students who are ill, injured, or enrolled for one-half or less of the work normally
required for full-time students are eligible for a temporary exemption.
A student may be eligible for a permanent exemption if the student complies with
one of the following: (i) is 16 or older and has been enrolled in the 10th grade one
academic year or longer; (ii) is enrolled as a postgraduate student; or (iii) is
enrolled in a juvenile home, ranch, camp or forestry camp.FITNESSGRAM – SPRING 2018

Tests to Schools are to administer the complete FITNESSGRAM test battery to measure
Administer: student performance in each of the following six components of physical fitness
identified in the FITNESSGRAM®/ACTIVITYGRAM® Test Administration Manual:
aerobic capacity, body composition, abdominal strength, trunk strength, endurance
and flexibility. The second, third, or fourth edition of the manual may be used.
All tests must be administered by a District employee. Students may not
administer the tests to each other.
1. Body Composition (Required): Only BMI is used in LAUSD.
Body Mass Index (BMI): The body mass index provides an indication of the
appropriateness of a student’s weight (pounds) relative to height (feet and
inches.) Body mass index will be computer calculated from the height and
weight. Each student’s height and weight must be recorded on the answer
document. Do not use calipers or administer the skin fold test.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 20.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, page 38.
2. Aerobic Capacity (Select one of the following three tests for each student.)
All three Aerobic Capacity test options are scored as estimates of VO2max. To
calculate VO2max for each student requires that height (feet and inches) and
weight (pounds) be collected for the One-Mile Run and the 20-meter Progres-
sive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run (PACER.) Weight (pounds) only is
required for the Walk Test. To ensure students can be properly scored and
reported for Aerobic Capacity, it is required that height (feet and inches) and
weight (pounds) be collected for every student tested for Aerobic Capacity.
One-Mile Run – the objective is to run a mile at the fastest pace possible. If a
student cannot run the total distance, walking is permitted. The one-mile run is
scored in minutes and seconds.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 15.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 32-33.
PACER (Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run) – the objective
is to run as long as possible back and forth across a 20-meter space at a
specified pace using the CD that will give a 5-second countdown and tell the
students when to start. In the PACER test, a lap is one 20-meter distance (from
one end to the other.) The recorded score is the total number of laps
completed by the student. A 15-meter test is described in some materials. If
the 15-meter test is used, the results must be converted to 20-meter scores.
The 15-meter PACER conversion table document can be viewed and
downloaded from the Human Kinetics FITNESSGRAM PACER Conversion
Web document at http://www.fitnessgram.net/pacer_conversion.pdf.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, pages 11-12.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 28-32.
Walk Test – the objective is to walk one mile as quickly as possible while
maintaining a constant walking pace the entire distance. At the conclusion of
the one-mile walk, each student is given a time in minutes and seconds and
each student must take a 1-minute heart rate. The range of acceptable values
for the heart rate is between 30 and 250. The student’s body weight must alsoFITNESSGRAM – SPRING 2018
Page 7
be recorded. This test is ONLY for use with students thirteen years old or older.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 16.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 33-34.
NOTE: The maximum time allowed on the One-Mile Run is 13 minutes, or the
minimum score allowed on the 20-meter PACER is 10 laps. Students with
One-Mile Run times greater than 13 minutes or PACER scores of less than 10
laps will be reported as Needs Improvement. The time of 59 minutes and 59
seconds must only be used to indicate students who attempted the One-Mile
Run or Walk Test but did not complete it. Students with 59 minutes and 59
seconds will be reported as Needs Improvement.
3. Upper Body Strength and Endurance (Select one of the following 3 tests.)
Push-Up – the objective is to complete as many push-ups as possible at a
rhythmic pace. This test item is used for males and females. The student
being tested bends the elbow to a 90º angle. Students are stopped when the
second form correction is made. The score is the number of push-ups
performed to a maximum of 75.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 25-26.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 47-49.
Modified Pull-Up – the objective is to complete as many modified pull-ups as
possible. The student grasps the bar with an overhand grip (palms facing away
from the body). Students begin the test in a “down” position with arms and legs
straight. The student then pulls up until the chin is above the elastic band.
Students are stopped when the second form correction is made. The score is
the number of pull-ups performed to a maximum of 75.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 26-27.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 49-50.
Flexed Arm Hang – the objective of this test is to hang with the chin above the
bar as long as possible. The student raises the body off the floor to a position
where the chin is above the bar, elbows are flexed and the chest is close to the
bar. Students are stopped when the chin drops below the bar or when the
second form correction is made. The score is the number of seconds the
student is able to maintain the correct hanging position to a maximum of 90.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 28
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 52-53
4. Abdominal Strength (Required)
Curl-Up – the objective is to complete as many curl-ups as possible at a
specified pace. A measuring strip is placed on the mat under the legs so that
fingertips are just resting on the nearest edge of the measuring strip. Students
are stopped after completing a maximum of 75 curl-ups or when the second
form correction is made. The score is the number of curl-ups performed.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 21-23.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 42-44.FITNESSGRAM – SPRING 2018
Page 8
5. Flexibility (Select one test. Both left and right sides must be tested.)
Back Saver Sit and Reach – the objective of this test is to be able to reach
the specified distance on the right and left sides of the body. The distance
required to achieve Healthy Fitness Zone is adjusted for age and gender. The
score is the number of inches on each side to the nearest half-inch reached to
a maximum score of 12 inches. Both left and right sides must be completed. If
your sit-and-reach box is calibrated in centimeters, use Attachment B for
modification instructions.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 29.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 53-55.
Shoulder Stretch – the objective is to be able to touch the fingertips together
behind the back by reaching over the shoulder and under the elbow. If the
student is able to touch the fingers of the left hand with the right hand over the
shoulder, a “P” is recorded for the right side; if not, an “F” is recorded. If the
student is able to touch the fingers of the right hand with the left hand over the
shoulder, a “P” is recorded for the right side; if not, an “F” is recorded. Both
sides must be scored.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 30.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 55-56.
NOTE: In the proper administration of the PACER, Curl-Up, Push-Up, and
Modified Pull-Up, a student is allowed two form breaks with the first form break
counting as a repetition or lap. A student who commits two form breaks
immediately upon the start of the test is scored a one (1). A score of zero (0)
is not allowed for any of these four tests. If the student does not participate,
it should be left blank.
6. Trunk Extensor Strength and Flexibility (Required)
Trunk Lift – the objective is to lift the upper body off the floor using the
muscles of the back and hold the position to allow for the measurement. Do not
encourage students to rise higher than 12 inches. The score is recorded to the
nearest inch. Distances above 12 inches should be recorded as 12 inches. Do
not place the ruler directly under the student’s chin.
Test Administration Manual 2nd Edition, page 23-24.
Test Administration Manual 3rd and 4th Editions, pages 45-47.
Note: A score of “1” indicates the student committed two form breaks on the
following tests:
PACER, Curl-up, Push-up, and Modified Pull-up
A score of “1” is the minimum score for these tests. A score of “0” cannot
be documented on the above tests.
Note: A score of “0” indicates the student attempted the test and scored a
“0” on the following tests:

BACK SAVER SIT-AND-REACH BOX
FITNESSGRAM, SPRING 2018
A. Construction of a Back Saver Sit-and-Reach Box
1. Using any study wood or comparable material (¾ inch plywood seems to work well) cut the
following pieces:
2 pieces – 12” X 12”
2 pieces – 12” X 10 ½”
1 piece – 12” X 22”
2. Cut pieces 10” X 4” from each side of one end of the 12” X 22” piece to make the top of the box.
(See diagram.) Beginning at the small end, make marks on the piece every inch up to 12 inches.
3. Construct a box using nails or screws or wood glue from the remaining four pieces. Attach the top
of the box. It is crucial that the 9 inch mark be exactly in line with the vertical plane against which
the subject’s feet will be placed. The 0 inch is at end that will be nearest the subject.
4. Cover the apparatus with polyurethane sealer or shellac.
B. Alternated Flexibility Testing Apparatus
1. Find a sturdy cardboard box at least 12 inches tall. Turn the box so that the bottom is up. Tape a
yardstick to the bottom. The yardstick must be placed so that the 9-inch mark is exactly in line
with the vertical plane against which the subject’s feet will be placed and the 0-inch end is nearer
the subject.
2. Find a bench that is about 12 inches wide. Turn the bench on its side. Tape a yardstick to the
bench so that the 9-inch mark is exactly in line with the vertical plane against which the subject’s
feet will be placed and the 0-inch end is nearer the subject.
C. Modification
To modify a sit and reach box that is calibrated in centimeters, glue an 18-inch ruler on top of the
box matching the 23rd centimeter with the 9th inch of the ruler.FITNESSGRAM – SPRING 2018
