Shuttle Fit Trainer

The 20 meter shuttle run is utilized in a variety of pre-screening emergency service fitness assessments, as well as incumbent testing in the Policing industry (Fit Pin). After many years of experience administering the 20 meter shuttle run to several thousand people a shuttle run training app was developed.

The Shuttle Fit Trainer will allow users to :

1. Develop the technical aspect of the transition from one lap to the next (proper turns)-

2. Improve areobic capacity

3. Experience the pace required to complete emergency service aerobic assessments( 1.5 mile run, 5 km. run, the pace required for Police Fit Pin shuttle assessments for men & women )

4. Use the app to run the 20 meter shuttle run from stage 1 continuously until fatigue

5. Use the app to run at a specific pace repeatedly ( eg. Stage 7 the Physical Readiness for Police Pace)

6. Use an interval training approach

a) With a 30 second recovery phase (walking two laps) between stages or

b) With a 15 second recovery phase (walking one lap) between stages

7. Use the app to run at a given pace by selecting preferred stages on a 400 meter track

8. Monitor progress over time (time spent completing each stage, average pace, distance)
