What is a Fitness Assessment?

A fitness assessment, also known as a fitness evaluation or anamnesi, is a systematic approach to understanding your current physical condition before starting or modifying a training program. It goes beyond simple metrics like weight or BMI to evaluate movement quality, recovery capacity, training history, and personal preferences.

Professional trainers and coaches use fitness assessments to create truly personalized programs. Without this information, workouts are essentially guesswork - potentially ineffective or even harmful for individuals with specific limitations.

Why Fitness Assessments Matter

Injury Prevention

Identifying movement limitations and pain points before they become injuries. The assessment flags areas that need attention.

Program Optimization

Understanding your recovery capacity helps calibrate training volume and intensity for maximum results without burnout.

Exercise Selection

Your movement screening determines which exercises are safe and effective for you specifically.

Realistic Goal Setting

Your experience level and available time inform what's actually achievable, preventing frustration and dropout.
