Hey /fit/, I'm going for my physical ability examination for an entry level Police position. What kind of shape should I be in? I have a month to prepare.
You better work on cardio, you'll be running a lot. Also, it would help if you're not skinny as hell, so try and get a bit of muscle.
Read some documentation from the police force you are trying to join. I know our Police include the physical requirements in their recruitment stuff.
>>108396I'm going for Hartford, and I can't find shit on the requirements.
>>108399I just checked the site, and it's pretty poorly constructed. Also, are you already accepted, or just waiting? I don't see any positions open.
Well, Just start running twice a day and do a shitload of pushups.
I see there's a physical agility and endurance examination. What exactly that entails, I have no clue. Just work on cardio.
watch police academy, that should give you a fair idea of whats required
>>108399I live in hartford. what's your last name so i can get out of tickets
>>108414lol no>>108424Jon. Also, if I see you, I'll probably write you up for everything I can find. Anon should not meet IRL.
>>108427can we have sex in the back of your patrol car?
I would become a cop just for all the extra things you can get. Abuse of power can easily turn a lousy 40k salary into a six digit yearly income. Find some drugs? Don't turn them in. Accept bribes. Just make sure you aren't stupid enough to tape yourself doing it.
cops are filthy pig slime. they hire only people who look like stupid selfish jackasses with ego problems who want the license to push people around. cops are bad for society. if you get accepted as a cop, you're not a good enough person to be in my company.
>>10843440k if you're high in the ranks...when you start its more like 30k, less if you work in a smaller town
>>108462You must be a nigger.
>>108472you must never have been pushed around for no reason by a cop. look up the stanford prison experiment.
30k for a police officer wow. Here in chicago they pay 58 k after 18 months on the job. 51k starting and 39k while in the academy. Im still a year away until I can apply I turn 20 on the 16th of this month.
>>108476umm....the guys in the Stanford prison experiment weren't cops, it was an experiment you know...normal people put in a prison environment....etc
>>108476>look up the stanford prison experiment.I'm laughing right now, because you're a gullible fucking idiot.
nothing too amazing. just running. i mean comeon your gonna be a cop. join an armed force and show what you got
>>1084623/10
You should be in Crossfit shape. Anything less and you'll bring shame and dishonor to the uniform.
