Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

thank you for your important SR regarding field based fitness testing for adults.  Your methodology appears solid however the writing is awkward and limits clear understanding of your paper. Strongly suggest you enlist the assistance of a professional practitioner with English as a first language to join you on this paper.  Please see comments in attached document for parts of your paper. Too time intensive to review the manuscript in its current form.
