The Senior Fitness Test is an opportunity for seniors to participate in activities that provide data on personal fitness levels and is specifically designed for seniors over 60 years of age. As we age, it is important to understand our fitness levels and how they relate to functional activities like putting away groceries, getting dressed, or getting around at home or in community settings, while reducing the risk of falls. Under the supervision of SVSU faculty, students from kinesiology and occupational therapy will conduct a brief interview to better understand your specific needs and expectations, then guide you through each activity. Results and interpretation of these activities will be discussed with you, and a copy of this information will be provided to take with you when you leave. The entire process takes about 1 hour, and you can decide whether to take part in all activities or just some, depending on your specific needs.

Be sure to wear non-slip tennis shoes and comfortable clothing.
