A big indicator if you will have problems is your blood pressure. If you are questionable high you may exceed the heart rate. If you smoke don't do it 48 hours before the test, no caffine 48 hours before. Both of these can constrict your arteries. A couple good thngs to do is drink plenty of water prior as this will keep your blood and body more hydrated and a baby aspirin the day of the test will help thin your blood. Now if you do have a blood pressure problem as I do the medcation they will give you also help keep your pulse rate down. Most people that fail this have a blood pressure problem and that cause the heart rate to exceed your maxuimum rate. Just remember no caffine or nicotine. Good luck.

Let me know how you do...I am sure you will be okay!

Thanks for the info ETCH and the encouragement Corky. I am on BP meds. I am on a weight loss program and I've lost 82 lbs! which helped the knees but I was taking a supplement that I just read can cause a rapid heart beat so out the window with them. I plan on asking Schneider if I can go for the testing at the end of this month which will give me time to get everything under control. (Keep fingers crossed). I am waiting for the phone interview. I hope that my experience with the previous company will not be a road block.

Ok I got off the phone with the recruiter and I am conditionally hired. Going to Edwardsville for March 28th and hope that all goes well with the agility testing. Does anyone know if they still do the step step knee knee deal?

They still show it on their video, you can watch the physical on their web site. It doesn't look very difficult.
