A z test is a statistical test that can be used to determine if there is a significant difference between two groups of data or if a single sample of data is significantly different from a population mean. In the context of health and fitness, z tests might be used to compare the results of two different treatments or interventions, to evaluate the effectiveness of a fitness program, or to determine if a specific exercise or training regime is having a significant impact on performance measures like strength, speed, or endurance. A T score is a type of standardized score used in health and fitness to evaluate an individual's performance on a test or measurement compared to a reference population. The T score is calculated by taking an individual's raw score and converting it to a score that is expressed in terms of standard deviations relative to a reference population mean.
