Abstract

Context: The present investigation was carried out in the Department of Physical Education and Recreation of the University of Camagüey, Cuba, in the academic year 2018 - 2019.
Objective: to design a methodology to evaluate the physical fitness tests of the students of the aforementioned university in a more individual and personalized way,
contributing to their satisfaction and motivation for physical activity.
Method: Addresses the issue of physical fitness tests as an important evaluative aspect within the curriculum of the subject and the need to improve the evaluation of this aspect. The research arises from the need to efficiently evaluate the students who improved their physical condition and even so, they did not have a quantitative improvement in their overall assessment by not complying with existing regulations.
Results: The results of the implementation of this methodology showed a much more accurate verdict on the situation of the physical condition of the students, improved their motivation to carry out physical activity and expressed their satisfaction when their effort was recognized with a fairer evaluation.
Conclusions: the work shows an alternative for the personalized evaluation of the physical condition according to the individual characteristics of the students and in tune with the demands of the new study plan in force in Cuba.
