One of the first athletic skills test we had to take at Muscle Park was the coordination test. Here's how it works:
You have one minute to get 25 points.
The robotic woman voice calls out one of the following six commands:
left foot
left hand
right foot
right hand
both feet
both hands
Within 0.2 seconds of the command being called out, you have to touch the corresponding pads. If you get it right, the bell sounds and you get a point.
In this video, Lara gets a few of them right, gets confused halfway through, gets discouraged by the lack of bells ringing, and lets out an endearing scream of frustration. None of us got the required 25 points, and at the end of the whole thing we were told that while our real ages were mid-to-late twenties, our physical agility age was in the 50s and 60s. WTF?
But it totally doesn't matter. Lara might have the coordination of a 60 year old, but she's still cute as hell when she does that little mini-jumping jack thing.

Hahaha, that's cute... Lara is adorable! What's the guy saying? Something-kudasai?
If I try that, my physical agility would probably be 100...

Actually, I think I might be okay at this, since I used to be able to do something like that before without too much trouble. Granted, it was a mini-game on Mario Party, but still--the concept is the same and the reflexes are the same.
