Which one of the following is an example of a health and safety consideration when setting up a fitness test ?

  • A.The same person records the time taken to complete the test by all the athletes
  • B.The weight training equipment is checked before being used
  • C.Each person performing the test is encouraged in exactly the same way
  • D.All those performing the test should try to be the best

Answer: B

The health and safety consideration is that the weight training equipment is checked before being used.

Health and safety considerations protect participants from harm. Checking equipment before use, so that weights, collars, benches and machines are in good order, prevents injuries during the test; so do warm-ups, screening participants for medical conditions and preparing a safe testing area.

Having the same person record all the times and encouraging everyone in the same way are measures that make the test reliable and fair, not safe. Urging everyone to try their best concerns motivation, not safety.
