please can anyone help me - im a bit desperate!

Today i did a practice push/pull test, ive got a fitness test i HAVE to pass next week. it entails a the bleep test, and a push/pull test.

todays practice was slightly disheartening, (although it was just me on my own with the machine in a cupboard!)

i have to be able to push 34kg and pull 35kg

i could do the pull part. i did 36kg.

the push part of the test i could only do 29kg. its a strange machine that measures what you can push, no weights on it.

i got home and immediately went to the gym where i managed to push 35kg on the chest press machine. im terrified im going to fail my test next week and everything hinges on it - my new job, my new life is dependent on passing it.

what can i do in the space of 7 days to help ensure i pass this thing? im planning on going to the gym daily, using the bench press first (lifting about 22kg in free weights on a bench bar) then using the chest press machine, and going straight for 35kg.

does anyone have any tips? does anyone body build or have a partner who does?

to say im panic stricken at this point would be an understatement and i could really really use some advice please!

Phew, glad you haven't just bought a huge tub of something that you will never use! How long until your test now?

not quite sure. i asked for some time to train so said it would be sometime in June, so i guess it could be anytime this month.

ive got hypnotherapy for the next 2 weeks so im hoping it will be after that.

i have a tri mag aswell as my cycling one and there is an article about post training food stuffs - milk comes out really well as protien, then also that orange fizzy drink and the coach state that people look odd at him when he gives his team fanta.. but apparently is has a lot of minerals in for after a hard training session and will put them back -no more than 300mls though.
