So complete this 5 times in the shortest amount of time?
Exactly! 1 time = out 20m, back to start, out 40m, back to start, out 60m, back to start.
@rossmarwick1718 silly question mate, I've seen it done indoors, is the distance shorter indoors or more reps ????
@@buladude679na mate , always at 20 metre intervals
Do you have a rest inbetween sets or is it continous
Hi Stewart. You don't rest between the sets as it is a continuous test. Let us know how you get on!
It is a continuous test it’s famously feared in rugby for the difficulty
I guess you could rest if you wanted but the clock is still ticking and you loose time
My time was 13 minutes, is that good?
What is a good time for this test? What is a great time?
@@rossmarwick1718 Thanks!
There’s a broken version of this. You do one set (20,40,60) and beat it under 1 min, then rest for 1 min + the remainder time. And then you repeat 5x
@@mataimoa Great way to train for it!
@@rossmarwick1718 apparently Irish fullback Hugo Keenan beat that score.
Couldn't you just run 1200m in a straight line ?
Hi Ian, this test is designed for pitch based sports. These sports generally include change of direction and varied sprint distances. Having a shuttle format allows for the inclusion of these qualities and helps make the test more game like.
I hope this helps?
