I recently did this. What they do is they have a rope hanging accross the wall that's about 4 ft high. This is supposed to simulate the height of your trailer. They have you squat down and take 6 to 7 steps and if your head hits the rope, you're done. They gave me 2 chances, not sure if anyone else got 2 but I did. I was more worried about that than anything. I heard about it before I went and practiced and got through it.
I sat with a few guys that didn't get hired because of the duck walk..make sure you practice.
Good luck

FYI, you can put your hand down during the test. Just make sure the examiner knows what you plan to do to "Stabilize" yourself. FYI, Planet Fitness 20 a month, locations everywhere in the US. Showers, open 24/7, massage chairs and tanning included.

And many of you are good with this??
