Our highly qualified exercise physiologists assist police and fire departments in developing,  implementing and managing health and fitness programs to meet departmental demands and safety guidelines. Our custom approach through initial assessments and re-evaluations will ensure an excellent course of action to help you maintain a high performing team long-term. 

The following is an example of the fitness components that are frequently used in the field  for testing police and fire departments. We are not limited to these tests and can employ other measurements dependent upon specific departmental goals. Standard tests are compared to medical norms allowing us to set the standards at a level appropriate for your needs and requirements. Most of the testing can be  administered in-house, if either a treadmill or a bicycle is available for use.
