The Wasteline Test assesses whether a person's writing is 'flabby' or 'fit'.

The test works by counting percentages of words in five categories commonly associated with stodgy sentences...

• weak verbs;
• abstract nouns;
• prepositions;
• adjectives/adverbs; and
• 'waste words' (it, this, that, there).
  

For every writing sample users submit, they will receive an overall fitness rating ranging from lean to heart attack territory.
