Calculating A FitnessAge
There is no
magic formula here, rather, just a new way
of looking at the industry established
fitness statistics from over 60,000 people
who have taken these same tests. From this
data, we are able to easily see the
performance averages for males and females
at all age levels.
For example,
we know the average 37 year old female has a
recovery heart rate (from the step test) of
109 beats. Therefore, any female who
achieves a recovery rate of 109 will receive
a CardioAge of 37. The same is applied to
each area of fitness to produce a BodyAge,
CardioAge, FlexAge and StrengthAge, which
when averaged = your FitnessAge.
