About Police Fitness Test Score Calculator

Police entry tests typically combine an endurance shuttle run with strength measures. The widely used UK job-related fitness test requires level 5 shuttle 4 on the bleep test, and many forces add a grip and push or pull standard around 32 kg. This composite weights endurance most heavily because it is the usual limiting event.

Formulas

Composite score

score = 45% shuttle run + 30% push-ups + 25% grip strength

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the hardest part for most candidates?

The shuttle run, because it demands genuine aerobic fitness that cannot be built in a few weeks.

Do standards vary between forces?

Yes, and specialist roles such as firearms or public order require considerably higher levels. Always check the specific requirement.
