The<unk>  is an exercise test that researchers use to determine a subject's cardiovascular fitness level. The<unk>  is a modified version of the Harvard<unk>  Test developed by Professor Henry J. Montoye. The main differences from the original protocol were the lower<unk>  height (8 inches instead of 20), the more moderate<unk> ping rate (24<unk> s/min instead of 30) and the shorter duration (3 minutes instead of 5 minutes). These alterations made this test easier to perform and suitable for epidemiological studies. The<unk>  was employed in the<unk>  Community Health Study run between the 1950s and 60s. During this epidemiological study, around 5,488 people performed the<unk> . The number of heart beats from 30 seconds after the end of the 3-minute<unk>  test to 1 minute after the<unk>  test was used to assess cardiovascular fitness level.
