You can stop at your required number ie 33 push ups and you can keep going if you want. beep test is both feet behind 2 lines. My advice is just don't give up. Pace yourself during the first group of sets. We where asked not to record and post anything so il leave it at that. Frontex staff there where very friendly and helpful. Wasnt like a military environment but remember you are always being watched and assessed.

My condition is very bad and I cannot improve anymore in 1 week. :-(
The only thing I could advice is: START RUNNING.

Physical condition is not something static and might improve...does not say thát much about your suitability for the job itself

Question: they ask you to present a medical certificate before doing the physical test. Is it possible to get that very quickly in a hospital or something?
