Analysis of the Physical Fitness Profile of EF Phase Students of SMA Negeri 12 Makassar Based on the Indonesian Student Fitness Test (TKSI) Instrument

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and describe the physical fitness profile of Phase EF students (SMA/SMK/MA) at SMA Negeri 12 Makassar using the national standard Indonesian Student Fitness Test Instrument (TKSI) Phase EF. TKSI Phase EF measures six fitness components: endurance (Beep Test), arm muscle strength (Dipping Test), leg muscle explosive power (Vertical Jump Test), agility (T Test and Hand Touch Reaction Test), and eye-hand coordination (Hand and Eye Coordination Test). The method used is direct observation and measurement of the subjects. The results of the study on 8 students of grade 11.8 showed that the overall fitness profile of the students was classified as Good. The components that showed superior results were agility (T-Test), eye-hand coordination, and reaction speed (Hand Touch Reaction Test), where 87.5% of students achieved the category "Good" or higher. The most prominent component as an area that needs improvement is explosive power (Vertical Jump Test), where the majority of students (62.5%) only achieved the category "Medium". There are differences in performance between boys and girls, with boys excelling in strength/explosive power tests, and girls competing in endurance and arm muscle strength tests. Integrating a plyometric training program to improve leg muscle explosiveness is recommended.
