How can I prepare for the Physical Fitness Test?

If a Police Officer applicant receives a passing score of 70% or higher on the written exam, they will advance to the physical fitness assessment test.  This physical fitness assessment test is given consistent with the 35th percentile of the Cooper Standards, which is a requirement for entry to the New Hampshire Police Standards and Training Academy.  The battery of tests consists of; situps, pushups, and a 1.5 mile timed run.  It is suggested to practice these in order with limited recess in between.
