haha, yeah you need a gym or some weights for that test.
I tried it and came out very much in the fast-twitch group. I did barbell curls as I don't have enough weight for my max squat at home, though I assume my legs have a similar leaning to fast-twitch as my arms. This comes as no particular surprise as I've never had any amount of stamina for endurance based events, even as a youngster when i was fittest, 200metres running and 100 metres swimming were my best. I couldn't even complete the 1500 metres IIRC.
