Hi, I have recently applied to be a Police Officer and have already Passed the written Exam. The next phase is the Physical Performance Test on July 26 2008. The test consists of the following...
Dragging a 175-lb weight a distance of 12 feet
Running up and down a flight of 7 stairs (Twice)
Climbing through a window about 3 feet off the ground
Sprinting 42 yards in a straight line
Climbing over a 5 foot fence
Sprinting 70 yards in a zig zag line
Climbing over a 4 foot high hollow tile wall
I know I can do all of these things but they Need to be done in 70 seconds without stopping. I'll just come out and say it, My cardio is straight garbage But I'm willing to do what it takes to build it up enough to pass this test with relative ease. I only have about 2 months. Anyone have any suggestions or tips that I can use for weight loss and/or cardio excersizes. Oh...I own a bowflex (Don't know if that's a good or bad thing) Can't really afford to go to the gym or buy fancy diet food. Anything basic would be a HUGE help. Thank you so much for reading this and Thanks a lot for the help.
