Aerobic Test

The mission with today is to get a baseline idea of where you are at in terms of your fitness level for conditioning. We have provided a link to a simple and easy method that allows us to give you some options of how to complete this based on what you have available or what you prefer with regards to mode of training. You can choose from a step test, a one mile walk, 1.5 mile walk/run or a rowing test. Upon completion of this test you will record your score and then submit this either in the message function or email to hunthikeharvest@gmail.com. This will help as we move forward and continue improving. This will also be important for retesting down the road to see how much you improve over the course of the off-season. Here is the link: If you have questions about how to do this, feel free to reach out as we want to ensure that you fully understand and execute this properly. https://www.omnicalculator.com/sports/vo2-max
