aICC: intraclass correlation coefficient (at a 95% CI).
bHR: heart rate.
cResting heart rate measurement.
d1-minute HR after test: heart rate recovery 1 minute after the 3-minute step test.
eUE strength: upper extremity strength (push-up test).
fCurl-up test.
gLE strength: lower extremity strength (wall squatting test).
hLE flexibility: lower extremity flexibility (sit-and-reach test).
iUE mobility: upper extremity mobility (upper extremity multipattern test).
jN/A: not applicable; no intraclass correlation coefficient value was calculated because the raw data of the upper extremity mobility test was the percentage of participants, not a continuous variable.
