Flexibility

 

To test this critical component of fitness, visitors sit on a long bench with their legs stretched out parallel to the ground. They then lean forward with their hands and arms extended to see how far forward they can bend and touch a sensor pad. The difference between the scores of visitors, serves as an intriguing conversation starter about this often overlooked aspect of fitness.

The Endurance, Grip, Reaction, Flexibility and Balance exhibits make a great group that covers multiple fitness topics in a visitor-friendly format.
