Which of the following is NOT a PFA component?

Explanation:
The PFA is built around three main measures: upper-body muscular endurance, core endurance, and aerobic capacity. Push-ups test the endurance of the chest, shoulders, and arms; sit-ups assess core endurance; and the beep test (a 20-meter shuttle run with increasing pace) gauges cardiovascular fitness and aerobic capacity. A sprint test, which focuses on short-distance speed and anaerobic power, isn’t part of this standard set. That’s why the sprint test is not considered a PFA component.
