Description:

This original Cunningham Faulkner test requires the athlete to run on a treadmill set at a speed of 8 miles/hour and an incline of 20% (11.3°) until unable to continue

  • The athlete warms up for 10 minutes
  • Sets the treadmill speed to 8.0 miles/hr (12.9 km/hr) and an incline of 20% (11.3°)
  • The athlete conducts a few practice starts getting onto the treadmill at the test speed
  • Give the command "GO", starts the stopwatch and the athlete commences the test
  • Stop the stopwatch when the athlete is unable to continue

In the modified Anaerobic Speed Test (mAST, Murao 2018), athletes will use the values of 15% grade and 9 mph (8 mph females), allowing this test to be completed on most commercial treadmills.
