The Fitness Test

Although I'm getting on a bit
I still feel fairly sprightly.
I exercise most every day
and try to sleep well nightly.

While at the gym I thought I'd do
a fitness test. Why not?
I entered in my age and weight
and gave it all I've got.

I worked hard on the stepper.
Up and down I went.
The machine was measuring heart beats.
I was nowhere near being spent.

And when the test was all complete
the numbers weren't complex
but I found I couldn't make them out
without my reading specs!
