Track Set - Bleep test 5th December
Hi Team,
We are trying a Bleep test on the 5th December, limited numbers as it is the first time we've trialled this in recent sets. If you'd like to get involved please reply to this message below. Looking for 5 guys and 5 ladies.
What is a bleep test you ask?
The test involves running continuously between two points that are 20 m apart from side to side. These runs are synchronized with a pre-recorded audio tape which plays beeps at set intervals. As the test proceeds, the interval between each successive beep reduces, forcing the athlete to increase their speed over the course of the test, until it is impossible to keep in sync with the recording . Many people who test people using the Multi-stage fitness test allow one level to beep before the person makes the line, but if the person being tested does not make the next interval then the most recent level they completed is their final score.
The recording is typically structured into 21 'levels', each of which lasts around 62 seconds. The progression from one level to the next is signalled by 3 quick beeps.
The highest level attained before failing to keep up is recorded as the score for that test.
