When you go into the Police Academy you have to be able to pass their Fitness Test or whatever. What are some basic things you have to do in this test, and how many push ups, pull ups, and sit ups and whatever.

    Minimum standards in my state are:

    Run 1.5 miles in 15.28 minutes

    25 push-ups in 90 seconds

    25 sit-ups in 90 seconds

    and run an obstacle course consisting of pushing a vehicle 15 feet, run 50 yards and cross a 6 foot fence, run 50 more yards and go through a 2′ x 2′ window, run another 50 yards and drag a 165 lb. mannequin for 25 feet in 90 seconds

    This is not that hard unless you’re extremely out of shape.

    it varies greatly from state to state, and even academy to academy within a state.

    normally running 2 miles wthing certain times, so many push ups and sit ups within a number of minutes.
    Getting over a 6 ft and a 8 ft wall, pulling a dummy a certain distance and so on.
