Yo-Yo Endurance Test Levels
The Yo-Yo Endurance Test is a variation of the beep test. See a full description of the procedures for conducting the Yo-Yo Endurance Test. Note that this test requires continuous running, unlike the endurance version of the Yo-Yo Intermittent Test, which has rest periods of 5 seconds after each 40m run. The Yo-Yo test recording can be performed using the Team BeepTest software.
