I love being a cop, looking back, I loved my time in the academy. Now, 4 years in I still love it…but I will say this, I don’t know that I can recommend it anymore. I’m in the northeast where bail “reform” is a thing and people hate us. This summer has been worse than ever since laws were signed restricting us even more and letting criminals do what they want. We have an AG and Gov who hate us. Anyone reading this considering entering law enforcement, make sure you’re made of the right stuff. Make sure you know what you’re getting into.
I’m from the northeast as well. What state are u from?
Interesting how every major city is having issues with these ‘bail reforms’ at the same exact time, very fishy I might say
U must be in jersey?
Seems like it's becoming the norm everywhere esp mid west from what I see regularly on Code Blue Cam on here (youtube). Repeat offenders getting out with a slap on the wrist only to get out and do the same again. Very frustrating for LEO's. Being in Virginia, I can only hope it's less widespread in the south as I'm in the process of becoming a Cop myself.
He’s definitely in NY. I start my Police academy in January would love your advice
For myself I notice that if I'm more consistent with any type of PT my body will actually start craving healthier foods. Our bodies adapt to so much. Thank you Officer 401 for the continuous motivation. I'm trying to become a police officer on the west coast. Also, good luck to anybody on their way to the academy!
You make it yet?
Already a week into the series and I'm already loving it
I'm not even interested in going to the Academy but I still watch your videos. You always have great stories.
Jiu Jitsu keeps me in fairly decent shape and it’s something both beneficial and actually exciting to do.
Skipped over a huge part of PT in the academy, a person's overall health. You have to know yourself and what you can handle. For myself I have a spine injury with extenuating issues. Disabled without paperwork I pushed through several years of hitting the gym hard. I went from 116 lbs soaking wet to 170. I went from being barely able to lift my eyelids to being able to deadlift 300. Than everything came to screeching stop. I noticed weakness in my left side started walking with a limp. My right knee popped at the physical and I failed my mile and a half. 4 years later surgery. Didn't help I'm 5ft7, was 5ft8 at the time. Early thirties wasn't too much of a hindrance. Ultimately my new goal is possibly corrections before I'm 40 but ultimately I forsee myself in private security until retirement
As someone who plans to joiner Georgia state patrol in the near future this is super helpful!!!
Been a while. Glad to see your video again. But why da hell you gonna be the police these days? Glad to see people still have the desire but holy hell, they have a long tough road ahead of them. Good luck to anyone getting into police work these days.
Trick is to become a cop somewhere that isn’t a shit hole 😂
@@9770G AMEN!!!!
@@rsv4pilot114 where I live in my state I can name u so many towns that don’t have a single officer death and the cops get paid well too. It’s sad but true. Become a cop in a nice town with a smaller closer community. Not a major city like LA, Houston, Chicago etc.
@@9770G That's the way to go. Sad that big cities are not the same.
@@rsv4pilot114 yup. Police in major cities are so under appreciated. U gotta be a navy seal with a death wish to be a cop in Chicago.
Just passed the PELLETB. Getting prepped for the next steps now. Thanks for all your info 401!!
Hey what's up 401 good seeing another video. I'm currently in the process of joining Western Australia Police, the passed episodes have helped me a lot with the certain assesments and physical requirements. Keep up the good!
In the army right now, getting out in 2025 and going straight into the police force. I can’t wait!! Already in good physical condition!!
Thanks for your service 🙏
Just got out last month & starting my journey into police force now:) hooah
I just started doing 8 intervals for practicing for the academy. It’s amazing to see the progress. From an athletic perspective I’m not doing amazing but I’m someone that use to hate running. It feels good to prepare though and know I will be ready.
definitely my favorite youtuber of all time. takes my mind off my aggravating grocery store job and let's me relax in peace since my goal is to become a police officer myself. just so entertaining to watch him and I take mental notes every video I watch from him as well. great videos, can't wait for episode 3!
Much respect! I work in grocery retail too and it’s so draining, so many entitled Karens, like why tf they wanna break down someone trying to fuckin help, the nice customers just don’t make up for the ones who just take their insecurities out on you. Best of luck to you on your journey into law enforcement! I have full confidence you will succeed and do the absolute best for your community, I for one, have your 6!
@@duditon1best wishes for you to into law enforcement. hopefully you'll be my partner lol. very understanding. and yes, retail sucks, so many people calling out and just a dickhead behavior
@@cartermouton4461 I won’t be getting into the business myself, if I knew I could I would’ve, just always been one to appreciate the work that so many put in for their respective communities and I wish less people would fear them solely cause news makes money off of bad stories
@@duditon1 there's always going to be those few bad police officers out there making the job harder for the great ones. which kinda sucks. however, majority of law enforcement officers are nice and treat people equally. I know I for sure will. and also, social media as a whole just makes law enforcement looks bad. which is why I deleted mine.
Wish you had these videos when I was in academy!
You should do a video on scenario training. What to expect from role-players and how to get the most out of them (ie. This is where you want to learn from the mistakes you make and not on the street).
Thank you so much for the training info. you're putting out there. My daughter is getting ready to start the academy, and this will give her a heads-up on what to expect.
Maybe defensive tactics is a subject you want to talk about. I started patrol in the early 70s. Defensive tactics were a nightstick, a blackjack, or a 5 D cell flashlight. Back then the only thing that was off limits was hitting someone on the head. Knees, collar bones, etc were all fair game. Obviously, things have changed hugely. It seems like no one uses an impact weapon anymore.
That's a great topic in itself. My local police force carries pepper spray, tazer, baton and sidearm. They're pretty clear that they seek to avoid escalation of force where possible. More use of force also correlates to officer injuries.
You made it onto the Last Week Tonight show with John Oliver!!!! ‼️‼️
Not going to lie my federal academy was a lot different. Almost all my training was in the afternoon (right after lunch most of the time), the advice on food definitely helped.
Been a while, I see you’ve grown out the beard. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there.
Somebody is about to get a little more popular. You got mentioned on Last Week Tonight.
Good topic idea would be officer presence, as well as the same series for “how to survive FTO” to give the new officers on the road tips, lots of subjects to cover, geography, officer safety, officer presence, being pro active with field contacts, report writing:time expectations, on going issues, answering up to calls before senior officers, etc
Mma keeps me in shape pretty well!! Can’t wait for the physical conditioning!!
Just seen one of your previous videos on Last Week Tonight! You’ve made it to HBO foo!
By the way John Oliver used one of your videos in a segment on "Crime Reporting"
The PT is no joke key: love running and lots of traditional body weight workouts and ooooo burpees
Our PT was a joke! They reprioritized a lot of our academy into mental health training and we just had physical tests we had to meet on record but had to prevent for on our own time. Otherwise it was just a little bit of jogging and weight lifting.
What academy did you go to ? And what state ? @crossw4lk
Great advice , spicialy when cop get out of his car into scene
I did what I had to do to pass the academy, PT sucked I hated it, but I still try to watch what eat during the work week and get some cardio in. 17 yr TX LEO here.
I run 3-5 miles 3x day, sometimes more than that for preparation.
I recommend starting with a 1 mile run daily, learning to control your breathing. Then up your distance weekly. Start slow on the sit-ups and push-ups as well
Love the videos!! I start the academy at UNG Forsyth tomorrow! It’s supposed to be a first of its kind academy and Governor Kemp will be there for the opening day! These videos will really help!
So how's it going?
Well coming out of the military going into law enforcement this seems like a typical morning 😂
Whoa @officer401, I just saw you on John Oliver Last Week Tonight! the episode is titled "Crime Reporting" and yes it is on youtube....
Nothing like some arugula and tomato on a good sandwich. Team no iceberg lettuce 🤣🤣 thanks for the good advice! Love the new series
Reminder. Round is a shape, too. Denial is a warm tortilla blanket that I like to wrap myself in. :)
But really. Good eating habits are awesome. Stay safe.
Definitely look up academy standards before hand. A lot of CA academies want sub 8 miles. And when i looked into Texas, they were even faster running times.
401 is correct. Your presence must command authority to deescalte a situation
Thanks @Officer401
You are my favorite police UA-camr!! I’m trying to join next year!
Well this is good knowledge to know. I'll admit I'm completely out of shape and weighing as much as a feather anyone could kick my ass just by pushing me off balance and I'm no expert when it comes to physical fitness so at least now I have a straight to the point no BS answer on what I could do for my fitness
Thanks for the video. Going in January to the academy.
Dude you were on Last Week Tonight last night 😂😂😂
Officer401 man good to see ya
At the gym listening to this 💪🏽
As somebody who lost weight and gained it back, and lost it again, now going to lost it again after gaining it again, it's kinda true that there is no excuse. At the same time, the hardest part about weight lost is starting from scratch.
I’ve heard that they have actually cut down on the cardio side of things in our academy. Lots of legit defensive tactics but the cardio is way less than than what i thought there would be.
You are a great teacher and mentor.
Bro!! They have you on Last Week Tonight: With John Oliver!!!
Thank u never thought to think of food this way...
👍
I decided to get my health back and this video helped a lot. We eat to live… not live to eat. Our bodies need quality fuel. I also do think a cop in good shape with a well kept uniform coming up to a car will be taken much more seriously than an over weight cop with a sloppy uniform.
Officer 401 did you see you where on last week tonight!!!!!!
I love power walking and walking to electronic music or funky soul. Walking keeps you young. I live right on the Pacific Ocean and I swim in the salt water Olympic baths, I have the nature tracks and the mountains and lakes. Golf corses , fishing , boating. I love Australia. 🇦🇺⭐️😇
hahahaha 401 made it to LWT lol
Great video! it would be cool to see a video covering the personal history statement. I think it’s intimidating having to provide all kinds of information and details.
Just an idea, maybe you should put your previous academy related videos in the playlist as well
In my state of New York you have to pass an agility test before you even can get an interview.
Please keep ‘em comin.
THANK YOU!
Thank you 🙏
You need to do a video on report writing
I just graduated the police academy. Being someone who is 31 years old, and all throughout my twenties, I would work out everyday... it was still very hard. Partly because it was so early in the morning. Plus, most of the academy we had to work out in masks. Yeah... I know. For me PT was not the hardest part of the academy. It was dealing with a room full of recruits (a very large group of them) with huge personalities. I will just leave it at that.
Congratulations!
How long did you usually run?
Holy shit I’m early early, I’ve loved your vids ever since you started posting on here!!!
A quick question for you. Is it appropriate for a non LEO to wear a thin blue line as a show of support, or is it laughed at or frowned upon? I appreciate you and what you do. Looking forward to your next video. Thanks!
Yeah absolutely
Can you do a video on what we should have on our resume? Like a checklist type of video, must haves to get (like certificates, volunteer work, etc)
Thank you so much. This is a Big help
U got a doppelganger on the Charleston wv lip sync challenge bro.
1:15 THIS BRO ITS GENUINELY SO ANNOYING LIKE WHY 😭😭
I hate running but looks like i have to force myself
Put down the burgers, pick up water, eat clean and run. It's not too hard. Once the academy is over you can celebrate however you want lol
Mr. 401 could you do a show on how police know how to get to a call. Do they use GPS, or they just know where to go. I just always wonder. Oh and I'm going to try out for georgia state patrol. Thank you sir
I’m pretty sure most agencies these days have a GPS system in their cars, while I always believe it’s better to know your district because you shouldn’t rely on technology too much, but it does help a ton
John Oliver used a clip of yours in his most recent video lmao
Please, also encourage people to stop consuming sugar.
I've lost, no ish, 13lbs in two weeks (while yes doing cardio) by not eating sugar. It makes running and all physical activity 50% easier.
LOVE PT 👍🏽
Question. When you get a suspect into handcuffs is he in custody and is it your primary task once in custody to keep that person safe from others and themselves. Meaning once in custody win loose or draw it's your responsibility?
Man the PT is rough. Just finished the second day and I did not prepare at all. Gonna push through and get better but man it’s tough for sure.
Good luck cadet. I just started the academy 3 days ago. 19 weeks to go✊🏽
Maybe how to pass firearms qualifications ?
Just saw you on John Oliver's Last Week Tonight. I spat out my drink lol
Great video man💪
great video sir
Man I use to be a stud in PT during JROTC, doing a mile sub 6 and sit-ups push-ups both above 30 and today I started my PT training to prepare for the academy and I barely did 1.5 miles at 13:41 with stoping once at 1 mile… could just do 15 pushups in 1 minute and did 25 sit-ups at 1 minute… reality just hit me lol
Hello Officer 401 can You Please post night time shift ride alongs whenever you can thank you and thanks for sharing your great videos
Did you go to gpstc? I go to the Columbus one on Tuesday and I am not in shape like I needed to be but I got in fast. Gonna be a blast.
I agree spinach is a delicious vegetable
I’m halfway through my city’s application process and my metabolism is ridiculous. I’m 34 (will be 35 by the time I get into our academy) 5’10” and 160lbs. Every time I try to get up to 180-200 I get up there start to cut and immediately drop back down to 160. Any suggestions? I eat right and workout but nothing seems to help.
Fellow CO in GDC in GA went to mandate and he only ran the 1st day of each week, his brother attended the next mandate class at the same GPSTC academy at a different time and they ran everyday so don't rely on people saying"oh blah blah blah qe did this" just prepare for anything also anyone can run 5 miles and lift 700 pounds,please take some foam of hand to hand training like BJJ and don't just focus on firearms and cardio none of that matters unless you can fight
GREAT
Running be the easy part for me, how about 6 miles? Lol , rest of it be hard
Hey was wondering if u were gonna do an update on the status of what’s been going on in your job, if u still have the same position or if u moved department?
Can you go over the specialized detail and fire arm training?
Hey brother can you make a video or do you have one about a diet that would be fuel burner? I'm trying shed some weight the healthy way weight... Workouts outside the gym as well?
Im 36 and have bad hips. I've wanted to be a cop since I was a little kid. Just not sure I'd be able to make it though the pt running part..esp if there is running everyday! I thought it was only 1 time you run. Ughhh
Do more car vids
So you can push through shin splints. Good to know. I was always afraid that pushing shin splints would result in a more serious, and debilitating problem.
It can, my shin splints come back still and its been 6 months
Hop on a treadmill I ran at 6 miles per hour for 15 minutes for about 2 weeks and cut my physical test time in half.
Note taking and reports
I passed my civil test with an 87 but my town only hires people with 99 , now I have to wait 2 years
Go to a different city
Hey, I am somewhat in shape but I need to BUILD body weight. I am a light guy, I'm not terrible but I still would like to grow. For reference, I am around 6'2 114-120lbs...it's terrible visually lol, I don't think I give the image of a police officer unless I am wearing my uniform and my body is mostly covered. I am hoping to gain fats, whether good or bad, I just want my weight to be at least 130-140ish in just mass, and then I will look into the whole muscle growth/healthy fat thing
Hey brother I’m In the current process of getting hired through my sheriffs department in Georgetown SC I was invited to a hiring event and I passed my written test had the highest score in my group at 123 outta 125 , I had my board interview next idk if I passed it yet but they had us do the PAT test ( physical agility test) next and required time was 2:06 I ran it in 1:53 and afterwards the SGT said she would be in contact with me regarding the next phase of the process so does that mean that there’s a good chance I passed my board interview? The supervisor who is helping me get hired said that it’s all looking good for me but I’m just waiting for the phone call to take the psych test which is the next phase of the process but until then I’m just left waiting to find out if I passed the board interview or not 🤷♂️
Is a row machine good cardio? I am wanting to get back in shape since I hurt my back, doctor says I'm good but to watch out
Rowing machines are great for cardio and work capacity. You know your body, if you feel like it's going to re-injure your back then stop for a bit and keep on the path to recovery until you're confident you can start without issues.
@@shadowrider6052 okay thank you my doctor recommend I get one but can't afford
Hey officer401, I would like to see a video from you about how police view drugs. We all know that things like meth, heroin, crack, cocaine, alprazolam are top of the line for destroying families and communities. But what about other drugs that are punished the same as those but cause much less harm and have no addiction potential like mushrooms, lsd or the like. Do officers view these as different than the other, what drugs are the worst? What drugs are cops more likely to let slide? I haven't seen any drug video on your channel and have been watching for a few years I imagine for police they are something alot of you deal with daily. Thanks for taking the time to consider my suggestion!
Any tips to overcome shin splints in the academy? Hopefully going soon and want to be prepared for the worst-case scenario if I do get them
Train your tibs and run slower and walk when it hurts overtime your muscles will adapt to the impact of running
