I looked up the test standards. Laughable. If you can't pass this test, you aren't physically capable of watching TV.

22 pushups (not pull ups, as indicated in the article)
25 situps in 1 minute
300-meter run in 66 seconds
1.5-mile run in 15:37

I’m almost 60 and in the process of losing 40 pounds; and I could meet those standards with two weeks of working out.

I am not in great shape but I could easily pass this test. I/can do the push up and situps and sprint, and I can jog 6 miles an hour no problem.

My grandmother could pass that. Seriously, if you cannot pass that, please find some other way to protect and serve your community.

A dog could do better for protecting the public.
