That is not to say we should be hiring less police officers, but the reality is that a bleep test level of 5.4 is not particularly hard to reach. It can be difficult to pace yourself properly, and even though the test to level 7.5 – which needs to be reached if you want to pass Army standard – only take you 6 minutes and 30 seconds, it can be draining. Is 7.5 on the beep test hard?Īnd why do you need to train? The simple truth is that without any practice, the Beep Test is incredibly tough. It is the equivalent of running at 5.5mph for 3 and a half minutes. To reach a level of 5.4 in the bleep test requires very little preparation.

Simply put, the test needs to be more rigorous.

Then, as the beeps hasten and the time it takes you to get from point to point shortens, your effort increases. You might run out to the point, then jog back and have a beat or two to rest before going again. Think I did okay with 3 rounds all between 4min20sec and 4min30sec.HOW DIFFICULT IS IT? Your pace is easy in the beginning. I did the OPT one mentioned above, and it was brutal. Note down time for the 3 rds to asses your ability to recover. I have heard that there are other OPT and Bergeron 'known' workouts, but what are they?Īlso, do you know of any other cool, known workouts that aren't girls or heros?įor those interested, the two mentioned are: I know of a few cool benchmark workouts that isn't girl or hero workouts, like the OPT repeatability workout, and the Bergeron Beep Test.
