Testing Time! This is a great way to find out where you are, it will give you direct feedback on how you are tracking with your training, and it also gives us a really good indication of how we are doing as a community overall. This next week heavily influences where we steer the program over the next few months.
To record your scores just add your data into the spreadsheet HERE each day and this will allow us to collate all the results in place.
The testing will run over 2 days and it’s important to understand that these sessions are not workouts, they are all-out efforts. This is the part where you find out where you really are compared to where you think you are. Do these tests in the order they are displayed below and you should have a decent day out!
Day 1
Standing Long Jump
1RM Deadlift
Max Bodyweight Pull Ups
Day 2
30-second effort on the BikeErg (Max Meters)
Then, pick ONE of the following:
- 2km Ski or Row Erg (for time)
- 4km BikeErg (for time)
- 1.6km Run (for time)
- 8 min Echo Bike/ Assault Bike (Max Calories)
Take your time with the testing, don’t rush it like a session or a normal workout, sit down a day before and plan it out, think about how you want to attack it… give yourself the best chance to perform at your best!
