| Description | Our research is focused on testing physical fitness. For testing we used a test battery Fitness Gram (FG). 113 Czech 12 to 15 years old boys were tested. We tested the body composition, anthropometric characteristics, aerobic capacity, muscular strength and endurance and flexibility. Our results were compared with results of the same old boys from the USA. The results were evaluated by mathematical-statistical methods and reported in tables and figures. |
