How hard or physically demanding is the Police Academy?
The training you will receive in the academy is very physically demanding. You work out 5 days a week and run 3 to 4 miles a day on the days you are not doing grass drills or calisthenics. If you are not in excellent physical condition when you enter the academy, you may experience delays or disruptions in your training or may be dismissed from the academy. Physical Preparation Assistance is available for candidates who want to improve their fitness and strength.
