How to Pass the Beep Test - Tara Fitness. 

When I'm gasping for breath whist running, there's no way I could breathe through my 👃🏼!! I'm like a basking shark!!

Thank you soo much I'm doing the beep test tmrw

This is super helpful, thank you so much for the tips👍 I managed to get from 5.3 to 9.2 with these tips, and a lot of practices

Yep. Two years later and I'm doing it tomorrow to apply for the firefighters

I watched this video before I took the test at school, and it helped thank you so much!!!!

My god the turning one is helpful as hell. I've practiced the bleep test for the past 3 or 4 weeks now and need 8.8 for the fire service. I've been getting to about 8.9/9.0. For 95% of my training, I've been doing the loop at the end of each shuttle. I'm gonna do it again tomorrow but only stepping on the line with one foot and see how that helps.

I was running in loops before watching this video and also breathing in via mouth. Watching this video added extra 2 levels to my practice. Thank you.

One of the better beep test videos I’ve seen. This one actually provides some concrete tips on how to train and improve performance!

Thank you Tara. Having a digital watch and timing those 7 minutes of running is an amazing idea. As you said every level will look like it is taking hours to complete while we are running. As psychology plays important role here. It is a great idea to tell our brain it is just 7 minutes and we can do it. Thank you again for your video.

It was quite easy when you follow all of her instructions! Passed no problem! Thanks!

Thank you so much. I used to do 5.5 or 6 in high school and after that I had a hard time knowing how to have a good technique to stop and go on the line. I will try the breathing through the nose. I’m doing the beep test next Saturday for the police force and I need to do get a 5, but the higher you get the more chances you have into getting in. Thanks so much for the tips. I’ll be doing a practice run with my gym teacher this Wednesday and I will try all of these tips then !

These tips can help me get over level 14, Thank you

I have to get to 9.6 for my firefighter entrance exam. I only made it to 8 when I practiced for the first time this morning. Thanks for this video, it's brought a lot of inefficiencies to me attention. I'll put them into practice tomorrow morning!

Love the BigW or Kmart cheapo $10 watch tip because that is what I bought to practice the 2.4 km run for the army and it worked a charm.

Thanks Tara. Very helpful tips.

I need a 5’7 to be a reserve soldier and my fitness test is coming up, thanks for the advice ! Very helpful

Awesome tips. I will give this a try this week. Thank you 😊

by far the best tips, thanku

Awesome, you're a champion, thank you!

Great tips I appreciate your time with this video 👌

Thank you so much - awesome video. Appreciate the tips and advice. 😀

Thank you for the tips, I will let you know how I get on, I have CRPS in my right foot, but I am doing my very best to make sure my disability doesn't control my life, I have my beep test in four weeks time, so I am training as hard as my body will allow. I will be checking out your other videos Tara, Thanks.

I'm going for my Australian Army PFA today! I'll keep this in mind

Thanks for tip: breathing techniques, turning & timing; Keep the Great work and motivating

I have it in an hour 😭 imma fail so bad

Super helpful! I'm training to become a special forces soldier in the ADF and need a beep test result of at least 10.1 and this helped me a-lot. I'm getting to 10.2-4 now.

I got up to level 5 last week but today I got level 10 thank you so much for your effective tips

I like that watch idea. Just keep track of remaining time for ur goal finish time.

I have always thought it's hard to breath through the mouth

I’m going it today I’ll check in after school and tell how much ch I improved :)

When I’m running my mouth gets dry af

I have 18m And I need level 11 It's so hard Thanks for this video I was able to push from 9.1 to 10.3

My best friend destroyed the bip test. He is an amazing long distance runner and he actually turned by curving in a big semi-circle

It was so tiring but I got 2nd place! FIRST PLACE FOR MY ENTIRE GROUP THO!!

Thanks

hey just wanna say the breathing through the nose tip helps massively! went from 6.4 to 8. defo need more training for this consistency but the tips helped so much!

Thx very much

My god I used to get to level 17 and took it for granted. I haven’t done one since I was about 21 year old. Dread to think what level I’ll be on now.

I did my bleep test but I got a bad score so I’m redoing it so thanx wish me luck

I need 7 for the police service! Good luck to all you guys who have higher ones, you can do this!

7 minutes level 7?!?! I wish, we have to pass lvl 14 to get an A...

I followed this, and I got 15.3

I got to 16 and puked 🤮 so I hate this test every year I get so nervous

lowkey i have to do it in PE tomorrow so that’s why i’m here

I just went for the nys court officer trainee and do well at all on the beep test as it was ny first time and i think had i seen this video beforehand i may have been better but i have about 3-5 months to tru aing

I just know about this test today.. 😂

Thank you Tara 💗 I have one coming up for the police and I couldn't even make it past level 2, this is 15m lol. Not funny.. but yes great tips here. Training starts now :)

if only i found this video 5 weeks ago...

Awesome, I've got my beep test on Tuesday for the police. Got to achieve level 5.4 over 15 metres. I'm hoping my nerves don't ruin it for me as it only equates to jogging for 3 1/2 minutes and could usually do this easily. Great video

This will definitely help me I have it tomorrow and this time I wanna beat my last time 40

It is rlly hard to breathe when taking the pacer test at my school, especially when the air in the gym is hot and it's hard to focus on your breathing; since now we do wear mask.

Which beep test app you suggest. I downloaded one but it has start to end with the same duration for each lap however i see in reality it starts on slow pace then speeds up slowly. Thanks for the video. Great help

I'm doing it on wed for the army 🤔

Another beep test next month. Gotta work on endurance before the big day arrives. It's the breathing that's new to me in this video. I wonder if breathing exercises in some meditation courses can help 🤔

Hi The beep test has always been my nemesis, and I have had to do it a few times. I am now 46 and have another coming up and need to get to level 7.6. I am unfit at the moment and am really worried about failing this.

I am still probs gonna fail 😭but this helped thanks

Level twelve is minimum for my countries special forces. I got a long way to go.

She's a runner she's a track star

I did a beep test at school today in the blue edge program and i got 13.1

I’ve practiced this test many times. Good tips except one thing…and this is just my opinion based on experience. You talk about turning and avoiding extra distance. The most taxing part about this test is the constant stopping. You can hit the line and turn perfectly but it doesn’t address the stopping fatigue. The constant stopping fatigues the hell out of the quads and deplete oxygen fast. With that said, here’s my tip.: the key is continuing momentum, and here’s what I do that really helps. One you hit the line do a small hop while turning. I know it sounds weird but this counters momentum stoppage enough to where it’ll alleviate some fatigue on the legs. Again, it’s not extra distance that’s the problem. It’s the stop and go momentum blockage.

I'm using this but also knowing I'm not going to pass. Please wish me luckkkkkk

She’s right. Another tips try to think about something else, like going on vocation maybe ur son or ur daughter doing something, laughing 😆 something that can get ur mind out when u about to gas up

I ran my beep test today and I forgot to breathe for most of the test and only made it to level 6 shuttle 7

i have to get 9.10 its so hard, i'm usually dying by level 8.5. I need to pass or i face loosing my job. I'm determinedto get to it done though.

I have to do 15 levels

I have a beep test tomorrow and last time I beated everyone and the coach is counting on me to do it again

Lmao I have the beep test tomorrow😂 I’ll edit it to see if it works!

I like this test . My teacher telled me i only have to reach 10.2 so when i passed it i thought i would get an a so i stopped it at 10.4 or 10.5 i think but i easily would make it to level 11 or maybe level 12 . I will do it again in 2 months and then i will get an a i have to make it to level 12

I'm applying for the Army and I'm stressed about this 😅

beep test tomorrow

I'm doing it today 😳

i have to make it to level 11 to pass for my firefighter exams in a month but i can only make it to lvl 8-9 so far, wish me luck lol

I need to get to level 7 for Calgary Police Department. I tried it today using a shuttle beep sound file sent by recruitment. I found my self winded at stage 4-4.5. I honestly thought this would be a breeze. I am 200 lbs 6'2". quite lean. But crap that was hard. Plus on top of this you have to do the obstacle (pursuit restraint circuit) 10 minutes prior :0. I have my test coming up in 6 days and now I'm very concerned. IS there a way I can get to 7 if I train every day? or do you recommend I call my recruiter and delay the test. And if so, by how much? PS normally my cardio is quite good but due to COVID, I ended up doing minimal cardio and heavier weight training. I figured this would be optimal as I don't want to be a skinny police officer. I think I made a mistake. What do you think?

So is one minute on watch equal 1 level?

When you said breathe in thru mouth at the end of each level do you mean at the end of each line or each stage like once you reach level 1 you take a deep breath in and out thru mouth then again on level 2 then 3 etc or is it every time your foot touches the line on each side you take a deep breath in and our thru mouth?

Hi I have a fitness test next week and haven't been active for a month whats the best exercise and diet to do to pass level 6.3?? im trying to hit 6.8- 7.2 please reply asap

Not done the bleep test in about 20 years and now I have to do it for entrance into the fire service. Can anyone let me know how difficult getting to level 8 beep 8 is? I’m average fitness, have ran in the past but haven’t in 4 years…will I have issues passing?
