You will need to round up the result to the nearest whole number e.g. Knowing that the starting speed is 8.5km/hr and increases by 0.5km/hr at each level, and the duration of each level is approximately one minute, then the number of shuttles at each level can be estimated from the following equation: How many shuttles are there at each level? You can calculate the time for each 20 metre section, at each level, using the following equation:Ģ0m Time (seconds) = 72 ÷ ( ( ( Level – 1 ) × 0.5 ) + 8.5 )įor example, the time for 20m at level 11 is 5.33 seconds. Level Speed (km/hr) = ( ( Level – 1 ) × 0.5 ) + 8.5 What is the time to complete each 20m run? For these formula, we assume the second version, the starting speed is 8.5km/hr and increases by 0.5km/hr at each level. The starting speed can differ depending on the version of the beep test being used - the first level is either 8.0 or 8.5km/hr, though the second and subsequent levels are the same. You can also use the following formula to quickly calculate these values.
The beep test table page has the speeds and distances for each level.
