Scopri quanto sei pigro!

Continuando a giocare con il sito medal.org suggerito da l prof, ho potuto constatare il mio grado di pigrizia....abbastanza elevato, purtroppo!! Sicuramente non degno di un futuro medico che, in quanto tale, dovrebbe conoscere l'importanza dell'attività fisica!
Volete sapere quanto siete pigri?? Ecco qua...

The FIT (Frequency, Intensity, Time) Index of Kasari can be used to evaluate a person's level of physical activity.

Parameter

Finding

Points

frequency

>= 6 times per week

5

3 - 5 times per week

4

1 - 2 times per week

3

a few times per month

2

less than one time per month

1

intensity

high intensity activities that result in sustained heavy breathing and perspiration (high impact aerobics, running, speed swimming, distance cycling, etc.)

5

moderately high aerobic activities and intermittent sports activities that result in sustained heavy breathing and perspiration (step aerobics, stairstepping, speed walking, tennis, racquetball, squash)

4

moderate aerobic activities (normal bike riding, jogging, low impact aerobics)

3

low to moderate aerobic and sports activities (recreational volleyball, moderate speed walking)

2

light aerobic exercise (normal walking, golfing)

1

time

> 30 minutes

4

20 - 30 minutes

3

10 - 20 minutes

FIT index =

= (points for frequency) * (points for intensity) * (points for time)

Interpretation:

• minimum score: 1 (although I would imaging a person who never worked out could have a score of 0)

• maximum score: 100

• The higher the score the more physically active the person.

Limitations:

• Most serious athletes would max out the score. The score seems most useful for a person with low to moderate activity levels.
