Between the two tests I think that the Bruce Treadmill Protocol was more of a challenge for me because it was non-stop while going uphill, something that I am not used to, while the Beep Test had short breaks early on in the running. However very slight, I am not sure why there was a difference in my heartrate between the two tests. It would probably be the environment I was in and the way I was feeling for the day. The Step Test did not prove anything for me as it said I was in the "poor" classification for reaching a heartrate of only 126 bpm however that is lower than what I started with, a heartreate of 130 bpm.
