I’m 38, about 4 months ago I was 300lbs and struggled walking up the stairs. In that time I managed to get fit, dropped 40lbs, easily beat the pat and have just received a conditional offer of employment. I still got 30lbs to go but if you put your mind to it and really dedicate your life to being healthy, it’s totally possible. When I took the Pat in seattle I came third in my group and they were all military guys.
Absolutely inspiring and incredible!!! The effort and work is worth it, and you’re proof of that! Thanks for sharing your story about this!! If you’re good with it, keep the 10 Code Mindset community posted on your journey!
@@The10CodeMindset 100% I will. As I said I still have the medical and psych to go. I’m worried that my bmi will still be above 32 so what’s your thoughts on that? Do you think that it could be an issue? I would hate for it to be a problem considering I’ve worked my ass off 🤣
I've seen applicants who became new hires who were definitely 32+ when it came to BMI, but that's just my experience. I really do not know what the fine print is. Sorry, wish I did for you. You said you had more weight to go, and you obviously can get it down. You've got this!
@@The10CodeMindset yea I also think in todays climate they may have some discretion and that’s what I’m hoping for. Great channel by the way. I’ll keep you updated 👍👍👍
What I’ve been doing that has actually been giving me great results I’ve been starting w 1-2 miles a day Mon- Fri (only take 15-30min depending if I’m doing timed run or “just getting a run in”) this has gotten my 1.5 mile run down 5-6sec each week and has gotten my 1mile down to 9 1/2 min. Also daily workout of 100 push ups minimum, 100 squats minimum & 50 calf raises, 100 reps minimum any abs or 5min of planks, (daily workout only takes 10-20min and each week I’m adding reps per set set) I’ve gotten my push-ups from mid 20s to over 40 per min same with sit ups and the squats& calf raises have been helping w my run times
Getting after it! 👍👏💪 I typically take one day a week just to stretch and go on a walk, as recovery day. But just something to consider. Keep at it, I really like when people share their progress because it’s moto for other people
I’m 36 and looking at joining the County Police department but I definitely was struggling at how to start preparing myself for getting into shape for the academy. This really motivates me to ease into them without burning myself out and to slowly add more to my routine as I move along. I definitely want to do my best and I feel this will point me in the right direction especially with push ups/ sit ups and the running parts in the academy
Hey thanks for commenting! Yeah just going all out from the start will definitely burn you out…but going all in with the perspective of continuously showing up, that’s the game changer. I wish you the best!
I’m so glad you came up with this video as someone who is 22 had no detection in my life I’ve decided to start to work on myself to become a cop and your advice will help me greatly thank you.
Oh this is awesome. I thought HIIT training wasn’t going to help me as much and I wanted to focus more on lifting weights. This video definitely helps. 🙏🏾Thank you
When i went to do the agility test a poor chubby guy could not even get a foot over the 6 foot wall. Train hard lady's and gents on some David Goggins unbreakable mentality! 💪
I try to enroll in my country for being a cop but i start by using start to run and progressivly improve my condition stamina i want to eventualy try to do marathons easy. besides that i use rubber bands to use that to strenghten my arms, push ups, sit ups, planks,squats. I also use whey protein suplements beside the healthy food i already am eating just to suplement it and ensureing to be in top condition.
Been at PD for 12 years. I’ve gotten fattish and just pure weak and out of shape. But I’ve decided to apply for Trooper academy. I have a lot of work to do. Gonna suck but I need a lot of freakin suck right now (y’all don’t take that out of context now). I’m looking forward
@@The10CodeMindset yeah I’m hoping for the best, I currently work at a hospital as a security officer and get a lot of tips from our company police officers
Thanks a bunch mate, such a great resource. Recently passed my panel interview for the Western Australian police and I've been a bit worried about the physical portion of the academy. I will definitely keep these tips in mind and work hard on the calisthenics and especially the cardio. Might give yoga a try too!🤣🤣
I’m 6’2” and was 225lbs a couple of months ago. I’ve been eating clean 1500-2000 calories per day and nothing after 8:30pm. I am just now being consistent with my workouts and running. I am down to 197. I still can’t do more than 15 push-ups in a row, no chin-ups, 30 sit-ups, and 1 mile without my legs getting too tight to run. I do the pre-POPAT June 7 and the program begins in August. I’ll be ready with no problems for August, but a little nervous about the preliminary physical qualifying tests. And I’m 43.
Wow! You're taking action and making progress! Do you do yoga? Go to Coach Vigue's channel and look up beginner yoga and work your way up. I do not run that much anymore because unfortunately my knees are bad after the Marines, BJJ, and Policing...but when I do run, it's like I never stopped because of the endurance and agility from yoga. Can help with pushup and sit ups too, but congrats on the weight loss achievement. th-cam.com/video/ee44JJaWbIo/w-d-xo.html
@@stumpbumpers sorry to hear that man I’m 16 hopefully going to get into police academy as soon as I turn 18 I will sighn up and hopefully join at 18 1/2 anytips that got you thru for a little while before the injury? Also good luck in life wish you the best of luck
@@User_-jg9wy As in anything, stay focused on the task at hand. Remove all distractions and commit your time to study. You can get by, not studying, but you will not be the best you can be at law enforcement and a liability. If you want upward movement, you need to be educated and education takes dedication. The physical aspect of it is more about competing with yourself and progressing during the program.
Hey I'm 18 and I plan on going through the academy. I'm not usually the fitness kind of guy but I'm attempting to start now. I'm just hoping they hire me 😄. I get so parched runnin.
You're going to need it (fitness), but at least you started! If you're not the running type (like me) then follow some at home workouts on TH-cam. In addition to Sean Vigue Fitness, I follow Bully Juice and Next Workout. Stick with it! Best wishes to you applying to the academy and eventually working at a police department.
I’m really doing well on sit-ups and push-ups for my academy times but I’m struggling with my 1.5 mile run. I’m close to a 10 minute mile but I seem to gas out after a mile and slow down. I hope this video helps me with one month left of training before academy! Thank you!
Eat healthy, get good sleep, and some things that helped me during the track and Marine Corps days was to run hills as much as possible and run longer distances than the required distance. Don’t give up! You can do this!
You will be just fine as long as you are in good shape for the Academy, and I do not mean collegiate athlete shape! A friend of mine joined at age 47 or so and he is still in kicking arse and taking names! As you have questions just let me know.
@@The10CodeMindset Thank you, I am in shape. Actually my body fat was recently too low. I'm 6'5 and 200lbs. Thank you for the good words of motivation .
Hey brother . 2 years ago I went to our state police academy. I was 340lbs. I didn’t quit and went all 12 weeks, but in the end my final o course time 15 seconds over time, so I failed the academy. Since then I’m now 250+ lbs and will be attending again in a few weeks. I’m just worried that maybe the weight loss won’t make as big a difference as I’m hoping it will, any words of encouragement?
You lost almost 100 pounds! That’s awesome! I’m sure it will help. Looks like you suck at giving up, so I think you will be fine. Keep being awful at quitting and I would say do power yoga and more burpees. Just my advice. Congrats on losing the weight and then getting another chance. You can do this!! Be tenacious!
I am 20, and got some plus weight that I really wanna get rid of. In the past couple of weeks I looked into starting some kind of workout even created a plan of some sorts to start with. When I was in High school I disliked running very, very much. I am planning on starting jogging and improving the pace and distance as times go on to get in shape and create some leg muscle, I don't know if it's a good start for someone like me with a 242lbs body weight. Then the usual stuff with push ups, situps, squats, and pullups. I really need some heads-ups or confirmations from pros like you whether it would be a good start. :D Thank You, sir! God Bless
I am definitely not a pro trainer by any means, just speaking from experience. But you got this! Stay determined and just put in the work. Some fitness channels I follow (in addition to Sean Vigue) are Bully Juice and NEXT Workout. I’m sure they have weight-loss/beginner routines to start. Just don’t start out with something too intense, leading to injury and/or discouragement. Hope that helps!
HA! I don't know much about him, but in regards to yoga exercises/stretches, I'm on the same page as him (obviously). Gosh with anything else, I haven't paid attention to how he was since leaving Seattle. Hard to believe I made this video 3 years ago.
I have a question that is unrelated to this video. I am a 16 year old female and I really want to be a police officer. I have studied and watched videos for the past few months and know all the pros and cons. I am ready, as soon as I hit the age Im going to the academy. The only problem I have now is support. I have had multiple bad arguments with my mom about this, and I just want her to support me! My dad does and even he has tried to talk to my mom. She doesnt think it is a good idea because Im a girl and she thinks Im going to die. I understand completely there is a chance I can get hurt or killed, but I want her to see I really want to do this with my life! My uncle had a full rant on why I need to change my career, and I understand why they are worried, but I wish they would at least support me and be happy for me! I cant even talk to my mom about it because she gets upset and starts telling me I shouldnt do this, and its really having a toll on me emotionally. I was just wondering if you had the same problem and what I should do about it.
Thanks for sharing and please understand I’m not intending to get into the middle of a debate but this situation does remind me of when I wanted to enlist in the Marine Corps at 17 and my mom was very apprehensive about it until she met with the recruiter and had all of her questions answered. So having said that, would meeting a police hiring supervisor/recruiter at your local Police Department be possible? Is there an explorers or cadet program you can participate in? Is there a citizens police academy event the family could attend? Just brainstorming for you. I wish you the best!
Hello, I don't know if any of y'all are having this problem but I thought I'd ask. Do any of y'all get really bad foot pains after running long distance? It's like a burning sensation that goes away after you rest it for a bit. (It comes back after you start up again.) If you have, do you know how I can prevent it from happening so I can run farther distances? Thanks so much for your time!
Careful, might be plantar fasciitis. I dealt with it when I ran track in high school. Do you stretch before running? Do you have new shoes with good support to them? Roll a tennis ball under your foot, putting tolerable pressure on it. Good massage. Also, this might help, start smart: th-cam.com/video/P3Quz5jVC-w/w-d-xo.html
@@The10CodeMindset I'm gonna try stretching a lot more before I go out running. I tried the tennis ball and I think it really helped. Thanks for responding.
25 and working in teaching, and I've decided I want to change careers. My biggest issue was diet, but I've already dropped 10 pounds (190 to 180), and I've gone from barely being able to run to having a bit of trouble running 10 minutes straight. Sounds weak as hell I know, but my dumb ass never cared about my health until I was already fat as all get out.
I am 15 about 5'4 or 5'5 I weight about 118 pounds looking into law enforcement I can do 25 to 30 pushups and I do sports at my school football and basketball has helped me be really conditioned and feeling good any other things I can do
I'm not a fitness expert or trainer, but it depends on the consistency and efficiency of your new workout plan...AND...some police academies are physically grueling (which I'm not saying they shouldn't be), and then other academies it's pretty darn easy. So there is that to consider with your fitness planning. Hope that helps.
Hey Brother, for long runs (5 - 8 miles ) what is the pace you guys suggest at the Academy? Jogg or run or right in the middle? Thanks Btw awesome video. 🙌🏽
Thank you! Now when it comes to an 8 mile run, I wouldn’t have been able to do that in the academy! Haha! If this reference helps, I would suggest being to run 1.5 miles in less than 12 minutes and if you have to maintain a pace for 5 miles then be able to run the total 5 in less than an hour.
@@The10CodeMindset Yeah. I actually do match 1.5 in 12 min and running 5 M with in an hour. For the 5 Mile, I actually Jog 10-11 min per mile. I was just concerned about that if i have to run 5 mile with the same pace for the 1.5 miles run? Because that would be tough lol Any information on that brother? Thank you
Hi brother next month have to do 1.5 in 15 minutes 55 seconds. 15 inch vertical which im so worried about since the 3 meniscus surgeries. 24 push-ups in minute which I can do and situps 28 in min and 300 meter. Any tips on vertical
Hello good sir! I really have no idea how to jump higher from a stand still, but what has helped my knees is stretching my itBand, having turmeric and Relief Factor vitamins. Power yoga and stretching. Also reducing diary and refined sugars. This is what has helped me, but since I'm not a doc by any means I really can't give direction.
Don’t quote me on this, as I never worked in hiring…but if it doesn’t inhibit the ability to perform the physical requirements of the job, then I don’t see a problem.
Hi there! I could give a lot of information, but in addition to the content in the video, I would focus on good sleep, running a little bit further each week at your pace, and then maintain an overall healthy eating style. I know it can be intimidating, but to get better at running, fuel your body and just keep practicing the running. I wish you the best!
Anytime! Get after it. 💪 I know I’m not a formal fitness instructor, but when I needed to get better at running, I just ran longer than what was expected and up as many hills as possible:

@@liftedcandy9146 Good! Glad it is helping! Stay well!
@@The10CodeMindset You too!
I am 15 and I want to be a cop. I’m 5’10 200lb and I can’t do more than 10 push ups in a row. What should I do ?
Got ya covered, never too early to start preparing. Watch: th-cam.com/video/Dw6nlQsQWkw/w-d-xo.html
@@The10CodeMindset thanks!!
25 and working in teaching, and I've decided I want to change careers. My biggest issue was diet, but I've already dropped 10 pounds (190 to 180), and I've gone from barely being able to run to having a bit of trouble running 10 minutes straight.
Sounds weak as hell I know, but my dumb ass never cared about my health until I was already fat as all get out.
It is NEVER too late to get back into shape, and I have no doubt that you can, as you know you must. Keep showing up and dominate!
I am 15 about 5'4 or 5'5 I weight about 118 pounds looking into law enforcement I can do 25 to 30 pushups and I do sports at my school football and basketball has helped me be really conditioned and feeling good any other things I can do
Stay active! 💪
And you will get stronger as you hit 16-18.
Well, you should 👍
@@The10CodeMindset Thanks brother god bless you🙏
We call burpees 8ct body builders in the Navy
Heck yeah! Same in my beloved Marine Corps and is it just me or does counting it out make the burpee feel longer and tougher? 😄
They work, for sure!
I hate burpeeees
@@jerurenteria325 I second that, but will continue to do them 😄
How long would it take to be prepared if you never worked out before?
I'm not a fitness expert or trainer, but it depends on the consistency and efficiency of your new workout plan...AND...some police academies are physically grueling (which I'm not saying they shouldn't be), and then other academies it's pretty darn easy. So there is that to consider with your fitness planning. Hope that helps.
Hey Brother, for long runs (5 - 8 miles ) what is the pace you guys suggest at the Academy? Jogg or run or right in the middle? Thanks
Btw awesome video. 🙌🏽
Thank you! Now when it comes to an 8 mile run, I wouldn’t have been able to do that in the academy! Haha! If this reference helps, I would suggest being to run 1.5 miles in less than 12 minutes and if you have to maintain a pace for 5 miles then be able to run the total 5 in less than an hour.
@@The10CodeMindset Yeah. I actually do match 1.5 in 12 min and running 5 M with in an hour.
For the 5 Mile, I actually Jog 10-11 min per mile. I was just concerned about that if i have to run 5 mile with the same pace for the 1.5 miles run? Because that would be tough lol
Any information on that brother?
Thank you
I can’t remember if we ever had to run 5 miles. If we did it was not expected to be a timed and graded run.
@@The10CodeMindset Thank you for the information brother. Appreciated
Anytime.
Hi brother next month have to do 1.5 in 15 minutes 55 seconds. 15 inch vertical which im so worried about since the 3 meniscus surgeries. 24 push-ups in minute which I can do and situps 28 in min and 300 meter. Any tips on vertical
Hello good sir! I really have no idea how to jump higher from a stand still, but what has helped my knees is stretching my itBand, having turmeric and Relief Factor vitamins. Power yoga and stretching. Also reducing diary and refined sugars. This is what has helped me, but since I'm not a doc by any means I really can't give direction.
How about joining police while acl graft i am totally recovered could police disqualify😢
Don’t quote me on this, as I never worked in hiring…but if it doesn’t inhibit the ability to perform the physical requirements of the job, then I don’t see a problem.
Hello Sir.... I want to join police force but i can't run i always get tired ... What should i do?
Hi there! I could give a lot of information, but in addition to the content in the video, I would focus on good sleep, running a little bit further each week at your pace, and then maintain an overall healthy eating style. I know it can be intimidating, but to get better at running, fuel your body and just keep practicing the running. I wish you the best!
@@The10CodeMindset Thank you so much Sir🙏😊
Anytime! Get after it. 💪
I know I’m not a formal fitness instructor, but when I needed to get better at running, I just ran longer than what was expected and up as many hills as possible:
DDP yoga
Wall sits wall sits wall sits wall sits wall sits.. all I gotta say. People failing out cause they cant do 1:30 of wall sits.
Since that’s apparently the case at some places, I’m glad you brought that up! Get those wall sit reps in!
Think this guy ever seen Police academy?
Zero chance
Nahhhh what
