20 meter Beep Test -Merged

[apache2001]

Haha. Funny.
I have asked. I wouldn't have asked someone else if they had told me. All I got told was 'you have to pass a fitness test and the beep test.' It's not exactly a lot of information, now is it?

I have attached a PDF here.  I hope it will help.  Good luck.

Thank you very much!

I couldn't find any info in the other beep test post.  Does anyone know where I could find the Canadian 20m beep test?  I believe it has 17 levels instead of 20+ that the Aussie one has and the cadence moves up much quicker.  Making it a more difficult test.

Thanks

Wowsers Tru, i am flabbergasted, the last time i done a bleep test was in Belfast '97, and my 3rd lung was firmy deployed during the duration!!

However the following links should be of some help.  I apologise in advance if they don't work!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_fitness_test ( easily the most informative one)

Classic ... (I just posted in the wrong thread ..." rust - the only thing that improves with neglect" ...)

As I was saying, I finally found out why they wouldn't simply give me a copy of the beep/bleep test cadence wav/sound file:  Liability issues ...
(sigh ... life was so much simpler in the good old days ...)

Anyway, here are the three links I found
(although I'll have to try them at home - Mordak appears to have disabled downloading at the office ... sigh ... life was so much simpler ...)

If anyone that has done it could confirm, I found this link on youtube about Australian Police doing a beep test:

What is it you want confirmed exactly ?

 

[George Wallace]

What is it you want confirmed exactly ?

Perhaps he should have posted this link to confirm

He may have had a better idea of what question he was asking, if any.

 

[LordVagabond]

I wasn't really asking anything, just making sure that it's the same test as the CF uses, that's all, for the people asking earlier in the previous page.

When I go for my BMQ should i stop running at level 6? (my minimum) I can't make excempt yet so should I stop? Or just give it my all and get 9?

One thing you'll learn quickly is that you should never stop at the standard. The idea is to meet the standard, and then exceed it to the best of your ability. Always, and with pretty much everything, do the best you can at all times, because the standard is not a stop sign.
Just my .02 cents.

You'd do well to start off your career by pushing yourself.... it really pays off.  Set good work habits from day one.

 

[xxmixkexx]

Thanks! I always push myself when I test at home, I was just not sure if you were supposed to stop if you could not make exempt.

As well, on this day all your instructors are watching you. This is the time you want to shine. By shine I don't mean "show off" but make them notice you. Don't drop out at stage 6, that just tells them that your not looking to get ahead, and the minimum is what you will always except.

I am hoping for level 10 before BMQ, but would exempt even matter the first year?

It depends on your trade. For myself, in the infantry there is no such thing as exempt, we do it every year  ;D  (I THINK all combat arms personel do it every year?? anyone clarify??)

But One of my friends is a MSE OP (driver) in the arir force and he will not have to do it again until next year.

Yopu do the BFT every year correct ? The BFT counts as "exempt" but still has to be done every year as it is valid for only 12 months. I never did the expres test while i was army.

But One of my friends is a MSE OP (driver) in the arir force and he will not have to do it again until next year.

And that is correct CF policy WRT the expres test.
