i am currently an officer in my home town, and i am trying to get into better shape in order to be a bit safer. with the rise of different drugs(officers...you know exactly what i mean)people are acting like superman on them. i know i have other tools in my belt to deal with them, but trying to be in shape is key for me. Does anyone have any pointers. Come on LEOs!!

    Um... I know that it is the "new" Army and all that but, I really dont swing that way.
    I mean, if YOU do thats cool and all but, I am really not your type.
    And the last picture of me in uniform was back in 1996. That was BEFORE the black beret was standard issue.

    Actually my response was in reference to sugarbear's other post regarding pictures, so I hope you got the humor.

    As far as the uniform, I haven't been in the Army for over ten years. I too joined when you had to earn the Black Beret and you tried to "Be all You Can Be". Left just as the headgear changed and the whole "Army of One" thing came out.

    Dude..
    stop it already.
    IF you actually completed the police academy, you should be in pretty good shape already.

    You are not fooling anyone.

    Not at 25 years old.
    That is still an FNG.
    The problem a lot of police officers have is that once they leave the academy, they stop working out.
    But, in order to graduate the academy, you do have to be in pretty good shape.
