Biysk launches GTO fitness tests for all ages this June

Residents of Biysk can now put their physical fitness to the test by taking part in the GTO standards event. The programme invites people of all ages and abilities to earn the GTO badge through a series of exercises. Registration has opened for the upcoming sessions in June. The GTO tests will run on multiple dates: June 9, 11, 16, 18, 23, 25, and 30. All events take place at Yubileiny Stadium on 60 Nikolaya Lipovogo Street. Registration starts at 9:30 AM each day, with activities beginning at 10:00 AM.

To earn the GTO badge, participants must complete four to five mandatory exercises. They must also choose two to three optional tests from a set list. The programme includes 18 age categories, allowing anyone from 6 years old to over 70 to take part. Before joining, each person needs a medical examination and a copy of their passport. Children can provide a birth certificate instead. Organisers have also made it clear that people with disabilities are welcome to participate. Those interested must register in advance through the official website. No on-site sign-ups will be available.

The GTO tests offer a structured way for Biysk residents to assess their fitness across different age groups. Successful participants will receive the GTO badge after meeting the required standards. The event aims to encourage physical activity while ensuring accessibility for all.
