What is the MZ-Beep Test?

MZ-Beep Test is a simple shuttle run assessment that’s used as a global standard for fitness testing, particularly in the military and public or private service sectors.

It’s a classic fitness staple that requires minimal equipment and takes less than 15 minutes to complete. Decide on a shuttle length – 15m or 20m – and set up two cones or markers at that distance apart.

Every time you hear a beep, run to the other end. When you can’t make the distance in time for two beeps in a row, the test is over. You will receive a score based on your performance. Find out more about how a beep test is scored.

Who is the MZ-Beep Test for?
