Beep Test Recording Sheet

This is a printable sheet for recording results when conducting a 20 multistage shuttle run test (also known as the beep or bleep test). The sheet is designed for testing a group of athletes, providing a way of keeping track of the current level, and also somewhere to record the point at which each person drops out. Go to Beep Test Recording Sheet to download and read more information more about using this download.

RPE 'Borg' Scale

The RPE Scale or Borg Scale is a common method for subjectively determining exercise intensity levels - a measure of how hard you feel your body is working. It is commonly used in some research studies, but may also be used in training programs to describe the intensity of training sessions. There are two versions available for download, one has a scale from 1-10, the other scale is from 6-20.
