Firstly, four categorical searches were conducted with the following keywords for searches: Exercise Prescription, Physical Fitness, Exercise Therapy, Fitness Assessment, Exercise Test and RCTs, and the searched results were checked by reviewers and duplicate results were removed. Then all titles were manually searched for potential inclusion in the review. Articles retrieved, review articles were examined for further relevant references.
