Proposal for a Fitness Program for Police Officers
摘要
The National Police require adequate physical fitness to perform their functions effectively. However, studies show that many agents do not have it. This research designed a fitness plan to improve performance, prevent injury and promote health. A mixed approach was applied: qualitative (documentary review and interviews) and quantitative (surveys). Only 36% of agents are in good physical condition, more than 60% exercise less than three times a week, 51% have difficulties with their tasks and 33% have not received advice. There is also evidence of needs such as time optimization, adequate spaces and greater institutional support. Results reflect sedentary lifestyle, overweight and low participation in programs. In response to this, a structured plan with technical, pedagogical and technological components was proposed as a key strategy for strengthening the health and performance of police personnel.
