Runs the 15m test as a belt-speed ladder. It tells you what to set, holds each level for its real duration, and warns you before every change.
There is no braking, no turning and no acceleration out of the line. Running to your target level on a belt is not the same as passing, and it will flatter you. Use this to learn the speeds and build the engine, then do your real preparation on a 15m course.
| Level | Speed | Duration | Elapsed |
|---|
When you can get to a flat 15m, do it there instead. The pace tools run the real shuttle cadence and show where your rest at the line disappears — the part a belt cannot teach you.
Belts take a few seconds to change speed, so the warning comes 12 seconds before each level and the display turns red. Start reaching for the button when it does.
If you want the belt closer to the real cost of the test, add a 1% gradient. It will not reproduce the turns, but it stops the speeds feeling artificially easy.
Check your force's stop rule and target level before training to a number.
This builds to maximal effort. Warm up first, know where your treadmill's stop button is, and clip the safety key on. Stop if you feel unwell, dizzy or short of breath in a way that isn't normal for you.
If you're unsure whether hard exercise is safe for you, speak to your GP first.
