I walked casually to the door after hearing the rattling of the postman trying to push in the letters through the pigeonhole. My 3 years old would soon run to pick up all the letters for me as she normally does, but for some reasons that morning I wanted to do this myself.

I was expecting the result of my postgraduate assessment. I had toiled effortlessly in class, I was one of the intelligent few in the class, my views on the subject were highly valued. All my assignments attracted the highest grade. The last and final part of this course was the assessment which took place at work and I was looking forward to the outcome.

I have never been to the gym, neither have I been to any fitness class. I know the importance of fitness. I fall into a class of women who think they are doing enough at home. I go to work. I do the chores at home and I am practically on my feet from the moment I wake up till I go to bed. I have some exercise routine in place which I follow and sometimes ( due to my tight schedule) I forget about. I think I am active and fit for my age.
Seeing people jogging past every day makes me think about my fitness. Am I fit enough? Why can’t I join a gym or at least start some sort of more-physical-challenging-exercise? Do I call myself fit judging from a number of chores I do indoor? I cannot call myself fat and I do watch what I eat, are these not enough fitness?

These are the questions I cannot find answers for. I, therefore, decided to go for a fitness test. My fitness tests do not require any equipment and here they are for you to try.

Mile Brisk walk a mile: Taking a brisk walk or run for a mile is a great way to check your fitness level. Walking is good cardiovascular exercise, it can slow the aging process. For you to know if you are fit enough, you should be able to run a mile in 8 minutes, the younger you are, the faster you will be. If you are brisk walking, you should cover a mile in 15 minutes or less. Now test your fitness level and time yourself. (more…)
