I then divided the students into groups based on their gender and I calculated the average results and the standard deviations. The motoric tests used in the evaluation were: 2 kg medicine ball out throw, shuttle run 4x10 m, long jump from place with both legs together, 2-minute sit-ups, six-jumps, 30 m running with flying start, 12-minute run.
