The pregnant woman will perform a short warm up before performing a fitness testing. Push up measure the muscular endurance of the upper body muscles to include the shoulders, chest and back of the upper arms. This fitness area is related to the use of force involving pushing motion. Modified push up will be performed with flexed knee and continued until failure (e.g. inability to continue due to muscle fatigue). Recruits assume a push up position with feet together or up to twelve inches apart. Hands will placed approximately shoulder width apart with fingers facing forward. A partner recruit will be in a position to extend a fist on the floor directly underneath the testing recruit's sternum. A proper push up is when the testing recruit lowers the body and touches the fist with sternum then returns up to the starting position with the elbows in a soft lock. Proper form is closely monitored. Three trails will be given to the participating woman and the highest will be recorded.

The pregnant woman will perform a short warm -up before performing a fitness testing. This test will be used to test the quadriceps strength. To undertake this test the researcher requires a warm dry location-gym, smooth wall, stopwatch assistant. The Wall Squat test will be conducted as follows, the participating woman will stand comfortable on both feet with back against a smooth wall slide back down the wall, there is to be a 90°angle at the hip and knee, when the participating woman is ready lift one foot 5cm off the ground, the assistant starts the stopwatch as long as possible. The watch is stopped when they put their foot back on the ground; the researcher takes a test and then repeats the test with the other leg. The best time result will be recorded as a score in the second.

This test measures leg strength and endurance. The equipment required is a straight back or folding chair without arm rests (seat 17 inches/ 44 cm high). Place the chair against a wall , or otherwise stabilize it for safety. The pregnant woman will sit in the middle of the seat , with her feet shoulder width apart, flat on the floor. The arms will be crossed at the wrists and held close to the chest. From the sitting position , she will stand completely up, then completely back down , and this will be repeated for 30 seconds.

This test measures how you can maintain your effort for longer periods. This test is sustained for an extended time usually starting at about 10 to 15 minutes at a fixed intensity. In this study we will choose walking form. The pregnant woman will be start with 15 minutes and shoot for a target heart rate of lower than 55% of her maximum heart rate. Gradually she will be increase her steady state training to a 20 minutes cardio routine , eventually going up to 30 minutes.
