Beep Beep!

What is the Beep Test?

The beep test, also known as the bleep test, multi-stage fitness test, or shuttle run test, is used by sports coaches and trainers to estimate an athlete's maximum oxygen uptake better known as VO2 Max. The test is especially useful for players of sports like football, hockey, or rugby. The test involves running continuously between two points that are 20metres apart. These runs are synchronised with a pre-recorded audio tape, CD or laptop which plays beeps at set intervals. As the test proceeds, the interval between each successive beep reduces, forcing the athlete to increase velocity over the course of the test, until it is impossible to keep in sync with the recording.


                                      This is the after effects of level 17.12

At Talbot Trail we introduced a modified version of the beep test which is about 17 metres. Our grade 7 and 8 students challenge themselves to better their results each week. Coach B and myself are so proud of the progress and effort of all our Blazers and look forward to see increased results for all of our students. Go Blazers!
