I was struggling today at the test after completing the laps in 2:35 seconds. I had no energy left for the pull. was I sprinting too much and spent my energy there? thats what I actually feel like. I didnt get the chance to even start the push. I have another last attempt day after tomorrow. Is there anything I should know or practice from today? I will appreciate the reply. thanks

Is the beginning portion about 15 metres spread out in distance ?
@rlconditioningАй бұрын
I'm assuming you're referring to the first stage, the Illinois Agility Test (IAT). The IAT is 10m in length and 5m wide. The cones down the middle are 3.3m apart.

If we pass test in less time that has any benefit , i mean clearing this in 3 mins or 4:13 mins is same
@rlconditioningАй бұрын
Depends on the agency. Some agencies like competitive times (ie <3:30). Generally speaking, agencies prefer under 4:00 for their candidates.

I paced myself during my PARE test and i was able to finish it at 4:37. 9 seconds more and I would have failed so i was so fast in the push and pull that I basically lifted the equipment off the ground. 😂 Also from the testing centre i went to, during the torso bag carry, when setting down the bag, it shouldnt make a sound otherwise you fail it and basically the whole test for that matter.

@rlconditioning6 ай бұрын
I am pinoy, but born and raised in Canada. When you do start running, make sure to start easy. Even a run/walk program is fine to begin with. You want to give your body time to adapt to the stresses of running. It also allows you to work on your run technique as well.

@rlconditioning6 ай бұрын
I have this video about the pull: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ndd7qJZmrLjNiIE.html Generally speaking, you need to use as much of your weight as possible to counter the weight, and you need to use your legs to push away from the machine. You don't want to think of pulling only from the upper body and not utilizing your legs. In a way, doing the pull has similiarities to a tug-o-war.

He crossed leg on the push and pull station. Train to not do it, gives you a better ground stances and control. Coming from a former student who did it in 2:23 back then 👌✌.. Keep it up 💪

2:23, very impressive! Personally, I have more control with the crossover during both the push and pull. And technically, the crossover is allowed for the PARE, but I know there are some facilities that choose not to allow it.

Does it have to be a jump? Popat. Can legs just go over the bar instead?
@rlconditioning6 ай бұрын
Technically speaking, both feet need to be in the air at some point. So you could do some kind of awkward jump/hop over the bar as long as both feet are in the air and no other part of your body touches the bar as you go over.

I've seen other videos where you do a spin technique when rounding the cones. Which one do you figure is better for you?
@rlconditioning6 ай бұрын
I use the spin technique when I run the PARE or POPAT, and it works for me, but I'm pretty proficient at both the spin and running around. Sometimes I'll use both during techniques during the same run. For the SOFAST though, personally I wouldn't use the spin technique.

Can I walk when I take the test? As I remembered that I have to run.
@rlconditioning6 ай бұрын
Generally I wouldn't recommend walking, especially if testing in front of recruiters. Some recruiters will likely frown upon that. I shot this video to show that you don't have to run as fast as possible. The key is pacing your run so that you still have gas in the tank. You don't want to sprint which is the mistake many people make.
