Abstract:
Background: This article examines the differences in situational motivation toward fitness testing in physical education classes between non-overweight and overweight students, as well as the mediator effect of objective and perceived physical fitness on the relationship between weight status and motivation toward fitness testing. Methods: A total of 534 adolescents (298 boys, 55.80%) participated in the study. Perceived physical fitness and situational motivation toward fitness testing were measured through questionnaires, whereas weight status and physical fitness were objectively measured.

If used appropriately in schools, youth fitness testing can play a significant role in promoting a physically active lifestyle among school-age children. Unfortunately, many issues exist when testing students’ health-related fitness (HRF) components, such as privacy concerns, misuse of testing results, and time-consuming test procedures. This paper provides an alternative approach to implementing youth fitness testing, attempting to solve some of these long-standing problems.

Abstract:
Abstract Children with cerebral palsy (CP) experience difficulties in performing activities of daily living, including sports and exercise activities. As a result, most individuals with CP lead an inactive and sedentary lifestyle that leads to reduced fitness and decreased health benefits. The reduced aerobic and anaerobic fitness levels of children with CP, as well as their muscle weakness, warrants specialised testing and training programmes for this vulnerable population. Both laboratory and field aerobic and anaerobic fitness tests, and strength tests, are available for children with CP. The exercise tests need to be selected based on the physical ability of the child with CP and the goal of the assessment. Several training interventions have been developed to improve fitness and muscle strength in children with CP. Exercise participation can be undertaken with a high level of safety for individuals with CP. Therefore, fitness training of sufficient frequency, intensity, and duration is recommended, or even required, to maintain and optimise health and functional ability in children with CP.

Abstract:
The chapter Heart Rate Response to Exercise reviews the studies performed to estimate a patient’s maximum predicted heart rate. While the commonly used formula (220 – age), developed in 1971, is easy to remember, it underestimates the actual maximum heart rate in older persons. Studies of large sample size have found the maximum heart rate to be relatively independent of sex and physical fitness but to incrementally decline with age. The decrease with age is less than 1 beat per minute per year, however. A more accurate and recommended formula is [(208) – (0.7)(age)] as developed by Tanaka and colleagues.

Abstract:
The chapter Predicting Prognosis with the Exercise Test: Putting It All Together synthesizes the diagnostic and prognostic components other the presence or absence of ST depression that can increase the power of exercise testing. These components include resting heart rate, time of onset and magnitude of ST depression, angina, exercise duration, heart rate recovery, chronotropic incompetence, and the ST Heart Rate Index. The sensitivity and specificity of exercise testing and Bayes theorem are reviewed in conjunction with the challenge of determining a satisfactory gold standard for defining coronary artery disease (CAD) and ischemia. The implications of the decrease in the burden of CAD in the United States and other industrialized countries is reviewed, including the opportunity to include ≥1.5 mm of upsloping ST depression as a criterion of an abnormal exercise test. The implications of Bayes Theorem and post-referral bias are scrutinized. Emerging data suggesting that habitual physical activity and physical fitness may decrease cancer risk is examined.

Abstract:
Intensive renewal of the socio-economic, scientific and technical spheres and the spiritual life of society determines high requirements for the capacity of the individual. Graduates of higher educational institutions determine the future of our country, so they must not only have a high level of professional readiness, but also be physically enduring, efficient and healthy. These personality traits are formed and improved during the student years by means of physical education. Physical education in higher educational institutions is an integral part of education. The level of their physical development and health depends on the quality of the organization and conduct of classes with students. At present, the health of the younger generation is of serious concern. Numerous works of modern researchers point to an increase in the level of diseases and focus on a decrease in the functional resistance of the body of students to physical activity. The subject of the research is the methodology of using means of physical culture and health-improving orientation in physical education classes. The aim of the research is to determine the influence of physical culture and health-improving orientation classes on the physical fitness of first-year students. Research objectives: to conduct an analysis of scientific and methodological literature and advanced pedagogical experience in relation to the topic under study; to determine the level of physical fitness of female students, using complex testing and to reveal the dynamics of indicators of physical fitness; to develop a program of physical education classes to improve the level of physical fitness and health of female students; to experimentally check the developed training methodology and determine its feasibility of introducing it into the educational process in physical education. In the course of organizing and conducting a scientific experiment, the following methods were used: analysis and generalization of scientific and methodological literature, pedagogical observations, control testing, mathematical processing of results. The study involved first-year students who study at the National University "Odesa Law Academy" and do not play sports. In the course of the experiment, a program of physical education classes was developed, which included sets of exercises for the development of physical qualities, as well as a health-improving orientation. These complexes were used in each physical education lesson twice a week on a schedule. The study made it possible to draw the following conclusions. The analysis of the results shows that at the initial stage of the research the majority of female students showed low results in all the tests. After conducting classes according to our methodology, at the second stage of the experiment, the results for some tests improved significantly. Thus, the proposed program of health related training had a positive impact on the results of physical fitness of female students.

As schools seek to improve learning, many are moving towards sophisticated and high-stakes testing regimes. What isn't tested doesn't matter. To sharpen the focus on the competencies demanded by tests, schools are devoting an ever-greater share of resources to a few, basic subject areas, while reducing - even eliminating - time spent on subjects not tested. A casualty among these has been physical education. This brief summarizes the evidence against this trend. It presents concrete evidence that school-based sports and physical activity during the school day can improve learning and test scor
