I'm on week four from tomorrow.

Did the 3.3 last night = 3.3   30 / 22 / 22 / 20 / max (27+), with the max being 70.   I reckon I might be able to do the 100 now if I tried, but I'm going to wait until I've done the whole course.

Prop bet at the next blonde Bash FTW. Only as long as it's with someone who doesn't read this thread...

don't know if this helps but I came up with a simplified version for the martial arts class to follow.It's basically the same but this is what we're doing...

Level   Test   
1.1   10 / 10 / 8 / 6 / max (7+) 60s rest   
1.2   12 / 12 / 10 / 10 / max (10+) 90s rest   
1.3   15 / 13 / 12 / 12 / max (15+) 120s rest   
   Test (20 to move on)   
2.1   12 / 12 / 9 / 7 / max (10+) 60s rest   
2.2   16 / 13 / 11 / 11 / max (15+) 90s rest   
2.3   15 / 15 / 12 / 12 / max (15+) 120s rest   
   Test (30 to move on)   
3.1   25 / 17 / 17 / 15 / max (25+) 60s    
3.2   27 / 19 / 19 / 15 / max (25+) 90s   
3.3   30 / 22 / 22 / 20 / max (27+) 120s   
   Test (40 to move on)   
4.1   27 / 20 / 20 / 17 / max (27+) 60s   
4.2   27 / 21 / 21 / 18 / max (25+) 90s   
4.3   30 / 22 / 22 / 20 / max (29+) 120s   
   Test (50 to move on)   
5.1   40 / 32 / 30 / 25 / max (40+) 60s   
5.2   20 / 20 / 18 / 18 / 15 / 15 / 14 / max (40+) 45s   
5.3   18 / 18 / 16 / 16 / 14 / 14 / 12 / max (40+) 30s   
   Test (60 to move on)   
6.1   56 / 45 / 42 / 40 max (56+) 60s   
6.2   30 / 30 / 25 / 25 / 25 / 25 / 22 / 22 / max (56+) 45s   
6.3   27 / 27 / 23 / 23 / 23 / 23 / 20 / 20 / max (56+) 30s   
   Final Test   

finished level 2 last night and did 45 so I'm moving to level 3 this week


Still looks like a huge jump from 2.3 to 3.1

your observation is a good one. First time I didn't blast the minimum 5th set.
managed exactly 25/17/17/15/25
target at the end of the week is low comparitively. I tested 45 on monday so I'm hoping for more that 50 on the next test.

Last night was on the final day of Week 4.

30-22-22-20 and then max (min 29).

Not going to tell you how many I did for the maximum, as it would be a blatant brag post imo Wink.

I'm as surprised as anyone!

Definitely.  It's always easier to do something when you're already at a certain level.  Wish the running was coming along as well...
