In the vertical leap test, a leap distance over three feet is considered which level?

• A. Poor
• B. Good
• C. Outstanding
• D. Average

Answer: (C)

This item looks at how fitness test results are interpreted using performance levels based on typical benchmarks. A leap distance over three feet shows a very high level of leg power and explosive strength, far above what most people can achieve. That combination of power, speed, and coordination places the performer in the top tier of the scoring rubric, which is labeled as outstanding.

Think of the categories as gradations of how far the jump reflects powerful, well-executed movement. While many people might land in average or good ranges, surpassing the three‑foot mark signals exceptional capability, hence the outstanding designation. (Note: exact cutoffs can vary by age, sex, and population, but three feet sits clearly in the top category for this test.)
