Combining field and lab tests can really help us understand fitness better.
Field Tests: These are easy to do and happen in real environments. For example, running a mile helps check how well your heart and lungs work. Shuttle runs can show how quick and nimble you are.
Lab Tests: These tests give very accurate results in a controlled space. A VO2 max test measures how much oxygen your body can use during exercise. This tells us a lot about your fitness level.
When we use both types of tests, we get a bigger picture. Field tests show how you perform in real life, while lab tests give important details about your body. This way, we can create personalized training plans and set specific fitness goals just for you.
