Sit Up Standards

This event measures the muscular endurance of the abdominal area, which is important in the prevention of injuries while doing Police work. 

The candidate lies on their back, knees bent, heels flat on the floor.  With a partner holding their feet down, the candidate does as many sit-ups in correct form as possible in one minute.  In the "up" position, candidates must touch their elbows to their knees, and both shoulders should touch the floor in the "down" position.

Score is the number of correct sit-ups in one minute.
