What equipment is needed for the bleep test?

The bleep test, also known as the beep test or shuttle run test, requires minimal equipment. The primary items needed are a flat, non-slip surface for running, markers or cones to designate the running distance (typically 20 meters apart), and a sound source, such as a CD player or smartphone, to play the pre-recorded bleeping audio that indicates when to run. Optionally, a stopwatch can be used to track the time, though it's not essential since the audio provides the timing cues.
