The purpose of a police physical fitness program is to bridge the gap created by the common sedentary lifestyle of modern living and the need for explosive bursts of physical activity which characterize police work. An assessment of the physical fitness of personnel in the No. 29 Division found that with a few exceptions exercise was not conducted regularly. The physical exercise program selected for the division is to be conducted at the Narrabeen National Fitness Camp, which has complete exercise facilities. The exercise program for the men is the 5BX 11 minute-a-day plan and the XBX 12 minute-a-day plan for women. The exercises require a minimal amount of time, use no equipment, are well-balanced, and can be done anywhere. For probationary constables, who are required to maintain a set standard of physical fitness for the first 12 months of service, physical fitness classes will be held three times a week on departmental time, with each session lasting 1 hour. Upon confirmation to the rank of constable, personnel will be required to attend the classes twice a week for the ensuing 12 months while maintaining a physical exercise program on the constables' own time. Thereafter, personnel are required to attend an exercise class once a week. The progress of persons in each group is monitored through individual records. Twelve references are provided.
