The test is measured to the quarter inch.Bench Press – This test measures the officer’s upper body strength for one repetition. The test is conducted on a single fulcrum bench for safety purposes. The officer is to press the weight straight up until they have locked out their arms. The test is measured in 5 pound increments. Officers are weighed at the time of the test (in PT gear) and the appropriate percentage of the officer’s weight is used to determine the percentage to be bench pressed.1.5 Mile Run – This test measures the cardio-respiratory fitness of the officer. It is conducted on a flat surface track or pre-measured (flat) course. The test is measured in minutes and seconds.PEB AREAS
