    It's like the running bleep test. You do situps in time to beeps - one at the top and one at the bottom. As time progresses, the beeps get faster until you can't keep in time with them.

    I've seen many people complete it but I've never seen anyone complete the running one. MOTWYW.

    Ah. Done something similar only they never got faster, just used to keep time. For sit-ups this was fine but for the press ups it meant time at the top of the move just drains your strength.

    Also done pull-ups where the up and down move were to bleeps (*bleep* up, hold, *bleep*, down, hang).

    Those gaps between bleeps HURT!
