According to Tate (1999), research has shown “that individuals who maintain physical fitness standards have displayed the discipline and mental toughness to maintain a strenuous regimen are apt to be more focused on achieving tactical goals under adverse conditions” (p. 4). Currently, most part-time SWAT teams are not required to maintain minimum physical fitness standards, and the officer maintains his own physical fitness. The purpose of this research is to discuss the importance of implementing a minimum physical fitness standard to improve the officers’ overall health and safety. Requiring officers to maintain a physical fitness standard will help improve the officers’ health. Oldham (2001) stated “Every year more officer’s die from heart attacks or diseases related to the degradation of the body than all those who die from violent attacks and traffic accidents combined” (p. 74). A recommendation was made to have all part-time SWAT teams implement a minimum physical fitness standard.Item Physical readiness assessments in law enforcement(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2014) Dowell, BobbyItem The Benefits of Implementing a Fitness Program at the Hillsboro Police Department(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2002) Cain Jr., Carl A.Item The Legality and Feasibility of Implementing a Mandatory Physical Fitness Program for the Seminole Police Department(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2002) Hallum, Ronnie C.Item The need for physical fitness training in law enforcement and the standards that should be implemented.(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2005) Duncan, Gary
