11 Mar 2005 @10:36The Student Development Center is putting on a Wellness Day today. I stopped by, had nice little chair massage and went and did all the tests. I knew I was in good shape, but I didn’t know I was this good:
- 13.2% Body Fat - This puts me right on the line between Low and Average
- 4.26 Liters Forced Expiratory Volume (amount of air exhaled in one second) - 99% of predicted
- 5.35 Liters Forced Vital Capacity (lung capacity) - 107% of predicted
- Phoria:
- Me: 5.50 Exo - Pass
- Normal: <4 Eco, < 6 Exo, < 1.0 Hyper
- 21.12 BI Break (Normal: >= 10 diopters) - Pass
- 18.37 BI Recovery (Normal: >= 6 diopters) - Pass
- 40.41 BO Limit Without Break (Normal: >= 20 diopters) - Pass
- 40.41 BO Recovery (Normal: >= 16 diopters) - Pass
- Right Correct: 100.00% (Normal: >= 80%) - Pass
- Left Correct: 97.92% (Normal: >= 80%) - Pass
- Average Cycles/Minute: 22.36 (Normal: 12 Cycles/Minute) - Pass
I do have over-pronated (flat) feet, my lower back/hips have an anterior roll (they’re rolled to far forward), and my chest muscles overpower my back muscles. The two first things I listed are probably contributing to the muscles in my lower back being tight all the time, the Doc said, which they are. He recomended getting a set of insoles at Target or something to help with that. I’ll try it. But other then that, I’m in really really good, shape, especially for being a college student.
