Guys,
I am a silent watcher of DF for quite sometime. I have always wondered why there is not much female participation is discussions in this internet world.Any idea? Does they lack knowledge about TFM in general? No girl has sound technical knowledge about music? Or they hide behind a guys name and post?

  Here is what the Bleep test is all about.
  
  How can I test my fitness?
  
  
  (Beckham: Can complete all 23 levels of the test)
  
  A good way to test your fitness is by putting yourself through the bleep test. So what is the bleep test?
  
  It is a multi-stage fitness test in which you must do 20 metre shuttle runs in time with the bleeps until the bleeps get too quick for you.
  
  It is a maximal test which means it will take you to your fitness limit.
  
  The shuttle runs are done in time to bleep sounds on a pre-recorded audio cassette.
  
  The time between the recorded bleeps decreases every minute as the level goes up.
  
  How many levels are there? The test usually consists of 23 levels.
  
  
  Only elite athletes can expect to reach the top three. Cyclist Lance Armstrong and footballer David Beckham are two of the few people who can manage it.
  
  Each level lasts 60 seconds. A level is basically a series of 20 metre runs.
  
  The starting speed is normally 8.5 kilometres (km/hr) an hour and then increases by 0.5km/hr with each new level.
  
  The tape used for this test gives a ingle 'bleep' at intervals.
  
  This indicates the end of a shuttle, and three bleeps means you move onto the next level.
  
  It's also called the 'beep' or 'shuttle run' test.
  
  What purpose does the bleep test serve?
  The bleep test is used by sports coaches to estimate an athlete's VO2 Max (maximum oxygen uptake).
  
  The test is often recommended for players of sports which involve a lot of stop-start sprinting, such as tennis, rugby, football or hockey.

  "David Beckham is so fit he can complete the entire bleep test and still look fresh - not many people can do that!"

  Anyway..i think Americans are simply dumb..that they want to set their own standards...
  c'mon..the NBA champions are called "WORLD CHAMPIONS"...huh?..hello....what abt the Japanese?...
  their metrics system, sports, entertainment...they simply cant catch up with the rest of the world...
  i seriously believe Philippines and Hong Kong have better Basketball teams
  --------------
  
  Paran, hope you were not utterly kidding when u wrote that. Several European 'stars' were flops after they went to NBA, they simply cudnt withstand the quality and melted. No question. the Japs, Phillies and HKs will be absolutely thrashed beyond recognition!!!!!!!!!

  Shows how Sabonis struggled when he went there. Also nice intro to the system there that produces basky stars. (I actualy picked this fresh copy for Rs.5 at an exhibition, quite a steal! :))

  Hehehe..i mean Packard Prabhu! :)
  
  Oooo finally.We're talking about sports again,eh?
  Cool you guys watch basketball to!!! Alright...very good! Most of you all seem like Lakers fans,eh?!!! My favourite teams are the Los Angelese Lakers and the Philadelphia 76ers.
  I also like Kobie Bryant and Allen Iverson! Other best NBA players include Shaquille O'Neal, Jason Kidd, Tracy McGrady,Gary Payton and Tim Duncan.
  
  Haha..Paran I doubt the rape case with Kobe is fixed. Most celebrities may do these stupid set ups for publicity so they’d be popular! Why would Kobe Bryant do something like that..the dude is pretty popular! Even if he is guilty, he should not be let off so easily just because he’s a celebrity..he should pay the price! LoL! I have this Kobe Bryant jersey…u know that purple and yellow one, so I was wearing it one day..this old guy was on the bus he’s like why are you wearing it? And I’m like...um because the Lakers are my favourite team and Kobe is my fav player! The guy says tells me i shouldn't be wearing it becuz Kobe is guilty! I’m like sure…k..but I still wear it anyways!
  Raptors suck big time!! Haha…I’ve been to some Raptors games at the A.C.C. Wow..they are terrible! They get paid so many millions of dollars..and they can’t even score using a techique like a lay-up! Pathetic..and you pay so much for a ticket to watch them loose terribly..and then there are stupid ppl in the audience that want to cheer for them when the opposite team is creamn' them! Oh ya, but the Raptors vs. Lakers!!!!!That game was so interesting to watch! Pure entertainment!!!! Incredible to watch Vince Carter and Kobe Bryant go head to head for the ball! That was one of the best NBA games i've watched.
  BTW, I guess most of the asian players suck...but not all of them. There’s this NBA team…and they have this Chinese or maybe Japanese guy playn’ for their team... ppl say he's pretty good.
  Oh yah I doubt Beckham will come back!! Why the heck would he play for Chelsea if he returns?! Are they event that good of a team? Isn’t like Arsenal and Newcastle…even Tottenham better than Chelsea ?? OMG… Zidaine’s 31???? That dude looks OLD!!!! Like he’s 50 or something!
  
  Ronaldo is a pretty popular to you know! I thought he was more popular than Beckham! Ronaldo was superb in the 1998 world cup and 2002 one! Haha..all these football players had weird hair cuts in the 2002 world cup! Like Ronaldo he cut his hair in this weird way…so his hair looks like a map of Brazil or something.Hehe..it was really funny..he did it cause he said it was good luck!I guess it was since they creamed Germany 3-0!
  
  Haha Maverick I had to do that shuttle run last year!!! It was my first time! Wow that thing is hard I tell ya!!!!! It’s like you have been running for 5 mins and your still on the second level!!!! I only went up to the fourth level!! There was only one gal that did it up to the sixth level! It’s hard..Beckham is REALLY fit if he can do those 23 levels and not look so tired! We had that radio thing to…we had thing go beep also there was thing that sounded like a whistle or something…there was this guy that announces the level.
