wow that sounds kinda cool, I wish I had stuff like that back when I was taking gym class. We had a written final for gym, yes I said written. I know its crap, I wanted to workout but instead i had a test that asked questions like how many people can be on at one time during a game of volleyball and shit like that.

Anyway, I think a good way of training is to do the same thing but at home, but have something like this. Take a deck of cards 2-10 (of every suit) no face cards, then pull 10 of them, say you pull a 5 then you run to 1 side rest 5 seconds then run to the next. Pull all 10 cards at once. so if you pull 7 2 4 then you can run then rest the 7 run again rest 2 and run again instead of taking the extra time to pull another card. Granted its not as good as random beeps but its close and good practice.

The deck of cards thing is a variation of another exercise but it can be used for a whole lot of different things. like sets, reps, seconds of rest, min of rest, seconds to do a single rep etc.

Good luck on the test
