Beep Test

[Black Magic]

Sheesh 16..you guys must be really fit, I cannot go past 13, although I haven't done it in a while.

We used to do it every year at school although I can't remember any of my scores. I've got a feeling that we used to count the total runs rather than the levels and I tended to score around 100. Haven't done one since I was 13 though

I dont know what the beep test is meant to show?
Its not sprinting as you build up etc etc ?
Its not long distance because of the fast build up and stop and go?

It measures your stamina

I've managed 16 something. I've only done it twice, once I got to 2 (no joke, I pulled my groin on the turn still to this day my most embarrasing moment) and I got to 16 the second time.

You must of been super fit then. Footy players get around that

I think the best i ever got at High school was around the 10 mark.

According to Wikipedia 100 is towards the end of level 11. My highest ever was 112 which works out to half way through level 12.

I did in year 7 and got 8 point something.

We call 'em pacers.

Don't know about 'Levels" but I did manage to complete 124 sprints.

I'm not sure if the distance is the same either. We do it on a basketball court, width wise.

Timmy Cahill's best is level 21 apparently.

 

[punterpupnroy]

Yeah i did it again, got the same level.

10.6 im only 12 though so im pretty happy.

 

[Covvy]

thats quite good actually. my best was 11.3 when I was 12 and I got in the state athletic team so be proud of it.

Timmy Cahill's best is level 21 apparently.

But hes getting injured all the time(like every other australian) How do you know this?

 

[ZoraxDoom]

What is this test? I am intrigued. I've got horrid stamina, but for some strange reason I want to know just how terrible it is...

It was on some interview on Everton's website a couple of years ago. I'd expect that most footballers are at level 20/21 to be honest.

The Beep test is comparative to doing suicides. Suicides really hurts. Anyways last time I did the beep test was 2 years ago.
