I hopped i would never hear about this torture ever again. But i know if one thats worse. Its called stations. They have about 12 different exercises around an area. You start by doing the exercise for about 2 minutes not bad. But then they make you run to the next station. By about 6 you are dying because the distance between each station can be up to a quarter mile. And if the instructor catches someone not exercising everyone starts over.
No only in high school. Im a double major and have work and i band at my university i dont have time for another extra curricular. Besides if i do military i have no intention of becoming career.
Ranger we'd do stuff like that during pt and it sucked lmao, like 6-8 stations and you just nonstop workout until the group that's runnING makes it back. Usually the run is like a quarter mile or so
My middle school had its own football stadium, and the athletics class that I was dumb enough to join had to do stations around the field. When we were done with our 40 minutes of hell we got to run a mile and a half on the track
I think so, because I never heard of this, and when I did, we only did it one year, and I've never heard of anyone in my school doing it since, but, who knows, it's probably required
Finally someone else who loved them! Even though my limbs were burning I always aimed to be the last person to finish just to spite everyone else *nyeh*

I actually threw up after making it to level 4 because if we didn't push ourselves we could only get a C for the week. I almost passed out shortly after. Pe was torture for me.
The pacer made me get an anxiety attack so bad that I had to be rolled up to the nurse's office in a wheelchair. I got pulled out of PE on medical waiver. But because of that I can't be a TA
Both are awful, but at least you get to decide when you finish the beep test. Its mainly pride that keeps most people going. I've done both, but the worst thing is Nightmare Suicides. 3 lines. First line to middle line, back to first line, first line to last line, last line to middle line, middle line to last line, last line to first line. Thats one set. You do that for 3 minutes, and you have to sprint the whole way
In 9th grade I was late to a summer football practice and one of the coaches made me bear crawl around the track twice in full pads. It's still the most physically challenging thing I've ever done!
Yeah, there was one girl at my school that somehow made it to lap 200, then fainted. Literally out cold for like 20 minutes.

I took it today.
We had to run all the way down, pivot, go back to where you were, pivot, then go all the way down and stop, pivot, then shake in preparation because you know you're about to die again.
In Canada it's called the beep test and is a male. I've only ever made it to 7,7. One time us girls decided we were done with the bs that it is and all dropped out at 5. Our teacher was slightly angry and confused. We got a round of applause from the guys.
I took the pacer last year and all the kids in my class dropped out after one.
Another time one kid threw up after running 70 laps.
Another time I passed out and hit my head on the wall and got a concussion after forgetting my inhaler for the test
Another time one kid passed out and shat himself after running over 100.
The pacer is hell. The pacer is literally hell on earth as Satan disguised as a gym teacher gives you disapproving looks from the sidelines, yelling at you as you pull yourself over the line, coughing, crying, dying.
We called it the "beep test". One time I timed it and "missed the bus". The next day my gym teacher was like: Nope and I had to do it by myself while the other half of the gym was playing dodgeball FML
I absolutely hated these, and it made it worse that i was one of the first 20 to drop out. and while other places have the students hate them, where i live exercise is everything here, if your not into sports or working out your heavily judged. So when you drop out you can almost feel the ones still running judging you. .....
I thought suicides were set up with lines at regular intervals, and you have to run from the start to the first and back, then the second and back, then the third and back, ect. This sounds like running the entire room and back while your soul rapidly decays with every beep.
Are you not ROTC anymore?
