body mass index in aymptomatic
girls.3.To correlate the physical fitness
index and body mass index in
asymptomatic girls. Materials and
methods: This was a cross sectional
study done amongst asymptomatic girls
at Deccan Education society’s Brijlal
Jindal college of physiotherapy, Pune,
India between August 2014 to March
2015. A total 34 female students were
selected by convenient sampling. The
Body mass index was calculated after
measuring each subjects body weight
and height. The physical fitness index
was calculated by using the Harvard step
test and measuring the heart rate thrice
during the step test. Results &
Conclusion: Spearman’s correlation test
was used to correlate the fitness index
and body mass index. The study showed
that there was a negative correlation
