Fitness index
Measuring the fitness index – a simple and pleasant way to test fitness
Easy and sweat-free – regardless of your fitness level. You may have heard about the fitness index in relation to the “SuomiMies seikkailee” and “Matka hyvään kuntoon” truck tours. It is a low-threshold health fitness measurement. The clear and easy-to-read report is easy to compare with the results of the corresponding demographic reference group. Measurement of the fitness index can be performed on large groups, but the test is also well suited for individual testing or testing people who are hesitant to participate in fitness testing.

- easy to do, for example, during a work or meeting day
- for the body composition analysis, it is advisable to avoid eating, smoking, coffee and other caffeine-containing drinks 4 hours before the analysis
