Ah, I see the difference then. We have a beep to get down and a beep to get back.

Your standards are still less than they are here... Which is weird...

Unless the test is trying to see if we are up to military standards... And if thats true...

I don't even know what a beep test is. Here in hippie commune Sweden the only hero test I can think of was the hearing part of the schoolyear health checkups.

So other people have experienced the horror of the dreaded Beep Test?
Nope. We had gassers. Same thing, just manually controlled by a sadistic football coach, and the width of the football field.

Width of the football field sounds better, actually. The beep test thingy is like eight meters, so you have to keep stopping.
I'd prefer more stoppages. Running 48m over and over and over at a full tilt until everyone collapses is no fun. Also, my cardio has always sucked, but my speed was always well above average. My 40 yard (~38m) time was just under 6 seconds when I went into high school, and in my junior year, it was about 5.4 seconds.

Damn son, you could almost fill any role on the football field with that.
  Well, if you have the endurance you could :P

Trust me, running a few metres and then stopping for a few seconds repeatedly is nowhere near as easy as running continuously. I can run shuttles for much longer than I can run the short beep stints.

I usually do really shitty, because I have asthma which would always kick in around a certain number of beeps and I wouldn't be able to continue.

Do you take a shot of your inhaler (assuming you use inhalers) beforehand? You should talk to your doctor. If your asthma is triggered by exercise it's generally recommended to take the inhaler about 15 minutes before hand. (I love me my sabutomol (apparently called albuterol in the states because why use the accepted international name? Nutters).

My endurance has always been terrible. Also, it's very hard for me to run nowadays with my destroyed knees and swiss cheese spinal column. (That, and all the extra weight I put on because I still eat like an athlete and can't train due to excess pain.)

  That things evil.  It made my knee bad, trying to twist around to run the other way.
24?
16?
Beep test?

You're p fast MZ.

I remember doing down-and-backs for physical fitness with erasers in middle school, but we never did any speed tests for physical fitness in HS, there was only the mile run.

Back in high school football, it was all about endurance. We did something called indian run, where the entire team would run a fast-paced jog around the field for a set interval of time (usually about 25-30 minutes). Every minute or so, the coach blows the whistle and a player sprints from the very back of the line to the very front. I was in shape (about 250 lbs. at the time, which is in shape compared to my weight now), and I could usually keep pace for about 15 minutes or so before I started breathing really heavy. By the end you're grateful you made it out alive, let alone whether or not you kept pace.

Also someone mentioned gassers which can suck a whole back of cocks. They were usually only a once-a-week exercise, but whenever we did them we'd usually run a fuckton and it would be terrible.

Heh, and those were just for conditioning, not even getting into punishment runs. One time a few of our players were fucking around during stretches, and our coaches made them sit in the middle of the field while the rest ran suicides for the entire length of the football field. Bull in the ring was popular as well, where one player gets thrown in the middle and has to hit the shit out of someone in the ring paced to the coach's whistle (basically one hit ~5 seconds for about three minutes, then the next player goes).

The worst I ever saw was when someone got caught drunk in class and had to run up the river down the river. For the uninformed, this is running the width of the lines on the football field that mark every five yards on the field. Up and down, all the way across the field, and all the way back.

The beep test doesn't look that hard, looks a fucking ton easier than 40's or gassers.

Mine is run across the length of the basketball court, and each beep is for one run forwards.
It has the stages of 5-10 thing, and each stage I've heard is around 1 minute. The test gets progressively faster.

That's how my school does it too

same here.
Which means that my 4.5 is equivalent to running some 30-40 times across the sports hall. I dunno  I wasn't counting.
