How do you stack up ?

Remember the President Council on Physical Fitness tests you did in school as a kid ? Yeah the ones where you could just about do all the stuff except for the pull ups...and then you'd get pissed because the all the girls had to do was the flexed arm hang.

Anyway I looked those up yesterday.

Standards for 17 year old to meet the 85th percentile

Boys
55 sit-ups in 1 minute
8.7 second shuttle run
6:06 for the mile
53 push-ups ( not timed but continuous)
13 pull-ups

Those friggin pull-ups got me AGAIN !

Here the link for all the standards.
