Set-up
Run the standard 20m shuttle beep test. Record each player's level and shuttle reached. Compare directly to Day 1 run data — note who has improved, who has not. Use results to weight conditioning volume for remaining sessions.
Coaching points
- Pace yourself through the early levels — blowing up at level 8 is on you
- Mental side of the beep test matters as much as the physical; push past the urge to stop
Progressions
- Any player below target level gets additional conditioning circuits in Friday's taper work
- Use the top performers as pacesetters in future interval sessions
