Feasibility and Safety of Field-Based Physical Fitness Tests: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

While there is evidence on the validity and reliability of field-based physical fitness tests in children, adolescents and adults, there is limited evidence to provide feasibility and safety data on the application and performance of the existing field-based physical fitness tests.

Objectives

(i) To examine the feasibility and safety of existing field-based physical fitness tests used in people of all ages and (ii) to establish a comprehensive view of criterion-related validity, reliability, feasibility and safety based on scientific evidence for the existing field-based physical fitness tests in adults.

Methods

The search was conducted through the electronic databases MEDLINE (via PubMed) and Web of Science (all databases) for published studies from incept
