I think I can make it, should be interesting considering I've had only 3-4 real workouts in the last 3 weeks!

Hope you guys are serious about doing this, you need to give it your all if you want it to be a proper benchmark.

[edit] hmm, thought it was saturday... sunday morning I am usually at Yoga (9.30am), which I'd rather not miss. Unless your beep test is at 8am?
[/edit]

I can conduct it, but I am not doing it. I have other plans for my last few days of bulking.

For those who are doing it, no training whatsoever 24 hours before. No weights, no cardio, no HIIT, nothing.

Please hydrate yourself the day and night before. And, please train on your turns.

You can choose whether to do it on a court, on the track, or on the field. Whatever is chosen, please wear proper fitting shoes, correct for the surface. Lots of turning and running involved. No injuries please.

BTW, I can mail you the wma copy of the beep test. Write down your email address if interested. Then someone can burn and we can play it on a radio. BTW, anyone has a good radio?

bleep then yoga, sounds like plan! LOL

Not that interested

Go to church Sunday mornings so it doesn't work for me...

But I'd be interested in it

not interested also not conditioned enuff to do it also i want to be at best form for dota

hahah eh come leh everybody lai lai lai la. eh jordon means we saturday don need do strongman ok(: lol we just help sai kang haha. eh the more the merrier what, so we enjoy the puking tgt lol. louis ya in right?

Suffian, just out of curiosity, what is the difference for benchmarks, between doing a 2.4km and doing the beep test? I would have thought both would be highly correlated?

Obviously the actual measurements would be different (i.e. 2.4km is on time, beep test is on the "level" you reach)...

i think that i will die on level 6 or 7 ahha. but this is just trying out.. once we know how it feels like we attempt it again next time.

2.4km finishes pretty quickly whereas for beep, it's more like dying a slow death.. like poison

2.4km runs, for most people is start up fast, then due to fatigue, speed drops...

beep test starts from slow.... Then gets faster and faster. And, u couldn't actually stop running... The higher the level, the more shuttles there are.. at least till level 13(as far as I remember)

is anyone up for it besides
me
phing
aaron
???
location : the open court near plaza sing, as we have dota right after.

I'm out. I had a dismal workout this morning, so I still have subclinical flu leftovers...
