Ok so I had to go take a pre-employment physical for work today.

They had me do a "pullminary"-something test, where basically it was a measure of how much air you could suck in and exhale.

I failed this test somehow :wtf::wtf::wtf:

I tried it 6 times, and couldn't get it to peak over 8.

A guy who had been smoking for 45 years did the same test and passed it :wtf:

How in the hell could I have failed this? I run at least 2 miles 4 days a week and play hockey games twice a week on top of all that :wtf:

I couldn't for the life of me pass this breathe test.

I'm literally in awe right now sad.gif

I dunno are any of you familiar at all with this type of thing?

those tests are gay. i have to do them when i go to the dr for my asthma. even when my asthma isnt acting up, i cant pass it either. I think its gay.... so what if i cant breathe out really hard? I think you are fine. I wouldnt worry too much about it.

Try blowing up balloons and working up your diaphram. That test sounds really stupid to me.

Yep, did one of those at Sandia. Despite having allergies and asthma, I passed it just fine.

it could also be your lack of adjustment to the thin air.

i did one of those things in high school.

first in the class was a swimmer, second was an athletic trainer with shot knees.

start sitting underwater and helping bandage people up.

its sure to win.

they're supposed to let you retest anytime within a week to see if you can pass. i took my stupid breathing and cardio test less than a week after the doctors put me on a breathing machine. i was so bad brandon had to drag me to the dr's since i couldn't even drive myself.

i failed the first test because my knee popped. i took it again later that day and passed.
