Test components for the musculoskeletal system are broken down into three primary areas: muscular strength, muscular endurance and flexibility. FitnessGram® tests these three areas to assess the functional health status of the musculoskeletal system.
Muscular strength is the maximal force your muscles can exert in a single effort
Muscular endurance is the ability to sustain, or repeat muscular activity, over time.
Flexibility describes the range of motion of muscles at the joint.
