Hello. To measure aerobic fitness, the best factor to test for is one's VO2 max. The ultimate test for this is the Cooper 12 minute test. For example a runner would run around a track for 12 minutes and have the distance measured to the nearest 10 metres.

he chester step test is a better test than the shuttle as it is a continuous motion rather than stopping and starting. Just make sure you carry out the test consistently to get valid results.
