The test-result is the index-value which is calculated as follows (according to sex):<br />
Men INDEX VALUE = 420 + A x 0.2 – (T x 0.19338 + HR x 0.56 + [W : (H2 ) x 2.6])<br />
Women INDEX VALUE = 304 + A x 0.4 – (T x 0.1417 + HR x 0.32 + [W : (H2 ) x 1.1])<br />
Explanation<br />
A (Age) = Age in years<br />
HR (Heart Rate) = average heart rate during the test in bpm<br />
Example: Age: 50 years / Weight: 105 kg / Height: 188 cm<br />
Duration of test: 17:34 = 1054 seconds<br />
Heart rate 500m = 158. 1000m = 156. 1500m = 160 <strong>and</strong> 2000m = 155<br />
Average (158+156+160+155) : 4 = 157 bpm<br />
Index value = 420+50x0.2–(1054x0.19338+157x0.56+(105:(1.882 )x2.6)) =<br />
420+10-(203.8+87.9+29.7x2.6)=430–368.9 = _61_<br />
T (Time) = needed for 2 km in seconds<br />
W (Weight) = Weight in kg<br />
H (Height) = Height in cm<br />

An index-value of less than 70 is a result quite below average (average=100). Conclusion: Our subject is in need<br />
of some endurance training. Basically the test is suitable for all physically healthy persons between the age of 20<br />
<strong>and</strong> 65. The results will be less accurate with people who are overweight. Athletes usually do not reach the<br />
required heart rate when performing the test. The results will also be less accurate with elderly people.<br />
Original the UKK walk test has not been designed for individual tests but for a larger amount of subjects. i.e.<br />
testing of a crowd of people at the same time by sending them off in 1/2 minute intervals on the 2 km-distance<br />
track. Therefore originally the UKK walk test has not been designed as a typical test for the <strong>running</strong> <strong>machine</strong>.<br />
Advantages of performing the UKK walk test on the <strong>running</strong> <strong>machine</strong>:<br />
N Being able to measure the precise time <strong>and</strong> distance of the test (it is exactly 2 km)<br />
N Heart-Rate control during the test<br />
N Constant supervision of the subject by a doctor or trainer possible<br />
N Automatic display of the fitness-index <strong>and</strong> documentation with the help of either a printer or PC-connection<br />
A serial printer or a PCL-printer with parallel/centronics plug und converter [cos10056] can be connected directly to<br />
the h/p/cosmos <strong>running</strong> <strong>machine</strong>. Following data can be printed after the UKK walk test even without using any<br />
PC: UKK fitness index, date, time, test duriation, distance, elevation, heart rate, age, sex, body-mass-index (BMI).<br />
