I was looking at PT: THE U.S. AIR FORCE FITNESS ASSESSMENT, LONGEVITY & QUALITY OF LIFE from @Al Ciampa.
I really like the idea of having a few tests that can act as an indicator of ones health with some solid guidelines for improving. It looks like it was written with younger, able bodied, enlisted personal in mind. And it doesn't give the specific numbers to aim for, are those available?
Anyway, I was wondering if there would be any adjustments for the 50+ age range or if there are other fitness assessments or guidelines that might serve a similar purpose? It would be reassuring, or give me something to work on, to know if I meet some reliable health indicators.
Note: I don't have any particular reason for concern or anything to take to the doctor. Just trying to stay healthy.
