What is the pacer

largeandlovely

The pacer test. Where you sprint back and forth across the gym and whoever lasts the longest without experiencing heart failure or respiratory distress wins.

The pacer test is a multi-stage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets faster as it continues.  Line up at the start.  The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each time you hear this signal:  *r2d2 screams in hell*   A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound:  *digitalized bicycle bell from a five year old about to run your ass over*   The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over.  The test will begin on the word “start.”

On your mark

Get ready!

sTART!
