What is physical fitness?
Physical fitness is a status pertaining to the individual officer having the
physiological readiness to perform maximum physical effort when required.
Physical fitness consists of three areas:
 Aerobic capacity or cardiovascular endurance pertaining to the heart
and vascular system’s capacity to transport oxygen. It is also a key
area of heart disease in that low aerobic capacity is a risk factor.
 Strength pertains to the ability of muscles to generate force. Upper
body strength and abdominal strength are important areas in that low
strength levels have a bearing on upper torso and lower back
disorders.
 Flexibility pertains to the range of motion of the joints and muscles.
Lack of lower back flexibility is a major risk area of lower back
disorders.
Why is fitness important as a job related element for law
enforcement officers?
 It has been well documented that law enforcement personnel (as an
occupational class) have serious health risk problems in terms of
cardiovascular disease, lower back disorders and obesity. Law
enforcement agencies have the responsibility of minimizing known
risk. Physical fitness is a health domain which can minimize the
“known” health risk for law enforcement officers.
 Physical fitness has been demonstrated to be a bona fide occupational
qualification (BFOQ). Job analysis that account for physical fitness
have demonstrated that the fitness areas are underlying factors
determining the physiological readiness to perform a variety of critical
physical tasks. These three fitness areas have also been shown to be
predictive of job performance ratings, sick time and number of
commendations of police officers. Data also shows that fitness level
is predictive of trainability and academy performance.
 Physical fitness can be an important area for minimizing liability. The
unfit officer is less able to respond fully to strenuous physical activity.
Consequently, the risk of not performing physical duties is in
increased.
How will physical fitness be measured?
The Physical Fitness Test Battery consists of four basic tests. Each test is a
scientifically valid test. The tests will be given in sequence with a rest
period between each test.
1. SIT AND REACH TEST
This is a measure of the flexibility of the lower back and upper leg
area. It is an important area of performing police tasks involving range of
motion and is important in minimizing lower back problems. The test
involves stretching out to touch the toes or beyond with extended arms from
a sitting position. The score is in inches reached on a yard stick fastened to
an apparatus with 15 inches being at the toes and the one inch mark closest
the body. Knees must be locked and the hands together as the person
stretches down the measuring apparatus.
2. 1 MINUTE SIT UP TEST
This is a measure of the muscular endurance of the abdominal
muscles. It is an important area of performing police tasks that may involve
the use of force and is an important area for maintaining good posture and
lower back problems. The score is in number of bent leg sit ups performed
in 1 minute. Hands must remain on or about the head, in the up position,
elbows should touch the knees or upper portion of the thigh, in the down
position, the back must come down so that shoulder blades touch the floor.
Legs may be held for assistance.
3. 1 MINUTE PUSH UP TEST
This test requires pushing one’s own weight off the floor. This
measures the amount of force the upper body can generate and is an
important area of performing police tasks requiring upper body strength. The
score is calculated by the number of push ups performed in one minute. The
body is supported by the hands and feet touching the ground, with legs
straight and off the ground. The chest must come down and touch a fist
placed under the individual’s chest, then the arms must go to full extension

Normative data for these age groups have not been established.
How does one prepare for the test?
1. Preparing for the sit and reach test.
Performing sitting types of stretching exercises daily will increase this area.
There are two recommended exercises.
Sit and Reach. Do 5 repetitions of the exercise. Sit on the ground with legs
straight. Slowly extend forward at the waist and extend the fingertips
toward the toes (keeping legs straight). Hold for 10 seconds.
Towel Stretch. Sit on the ground with legs straight. Wrap a towel around
the feet holding each end with each hand. Lean forward and pull gently on
the towel extending the torso toward the toes.
2. Preparing for the sit up test.
The progressive routine is to do as many bent leg sit ups (hand behind the
head) as possible in 1 minute. At least 3 times a week do 3 sets (3 groups
of the number of repetitions one did in 1 minute.)
3. Preparing for the push up test.
If one has access to weights, determine the maximum weight one can bench
press one time. Take 60% of that poundage. This will be the training
weight. One should be able to do 8-10 repetitions of that weight. Do 3 sets
of 8-10 repetitions adding 2.5 pounds every week.
If one does not have weight equipment, then the push up exercise can be
utilized. Determine how many push ups one can do in one minute. At least
3 times a week do 3 sets of the amount one can do in one minute.
4. Preparing for the 1.5 mile run.
Following is a graduated schedule that would enable one to perform a
maximum effort for e 1.5 mile run. If one can advance the schedule on a
weekly basis, then proceed to the next level. If one can do the distance in
less time, then that should be encouraged.
Week Activity Distance Time in Min. Frequency
1 Walk 1 mile 20-17 5/week
2 Walk 1.5 mile 20-25 5/week
3 Walk 2 miles 35-32 5/week
