NYPD makes fitness test easier after increased retirements
I'm sure I could have passed the physical tests as far as performance based activity stuff, but may well have been rejected on stuff found in the medical exam, such as my atril fib heart condition, back in my early fifties, but I know I could never pass those performance tests after my late 50s. Are they talking about stuff you need to pass just to become a cop, or about stuff you have to keep passing on a regular basis even after you are on the job? I bet most cops in their fifties probably couldn't pass those tests in their later years on the job. I used to play full court basketball until my late forties, so I know I could have run a mile and half in under 12 min. or less back then.
