Štefan, L, Kasović, M, and Culej, M. Normative values for health-related physical fitness in first-year police officers. J Strength Cond Res 36(9): 2530-2535, 2022-The main aim of the study was to develop normative values for health-related physical fitness tests in first-year police officers. In this cross-sectional study, we recruited 773 police officers aged 19-28 years old (mean age ± SD = 22 ± 3 years, 34% women). Health-related physical fitness included: (a) polygon backwards (agility), (b) standing broad jump (explosive power of lower extremities), (c) sit-and-reach test (flexibility), and (d) 2.4 km run (aerobic capacity). In addition, maximal oxygen uptake (V̇ o2 max) was calculated. Sex- and age-specific centile smoothed curves for the 20th, 40th, 60 th , and 80th percentiles using Cole's LMS method were created. The results showed that men performed better in all health-related physical fitness tests ( p < 0.001), compared with women. The median values for polygon backwards, standing broad jump, sit-and-reach test, 2.4 km run and V̇ o2 max were 8 seconds, 210, 15 cm, 721 seconds and 49 mlO 2 ·kg -1 ·min -1 in men and 10 seconds, 165, 10 cm, 915 seconds and 39 mlO 2 ·kg -1 ·min -1 in women. No significant interaction between age and health-related physical fitness was observed. This study provides sex- and age-specific normative values for health-related physical fitness in police officers. Findings from this study may be used in detecting a group of police officers who have lower levels of physical fitness. Thus, policies aiming to enhance the level of physical fitness could be implemented within the system.
斯特凡、L、卡索维奇、M 和库里耶、M. 第一年警察健康相关体能的正常值。J 强能力研究 36(9)：2530-2535，2022- 本研究的主要目的是为第一年警察的健康相关体能测试制定正常值。在这项横断面研究中，我们招募了 773 名年龄在 19-28 岁的警察（平均年龄 ± SD = 22 ± 3 岁，34%为女性）。健康相关体能包括：(a) 多边形后退（敏捷性），(b) 站立跳远（下肢爆发力），(c) 坐式伸展测试（柔韧性）和 (d) 2.4 公里跑（有氧能力）。此外，还计算了最大摄氧量（V̇o2 max）。使用 Cole 的 LMS 方法为 20%、40%、60%和 80%百分位数创建了性别和年龄特异性百分位平滑曲线。结果显示，与女性相比，男性在所有健康相关体能测试中表现更好（p < 0.001）。男性的多边形后退、站立跳远、坐式伸展测试、2.4 公里跑和 V̇o2 max 的中位数值分别为 8 秒、210、15 厘米、721 秒和 49 mlO 2·kg -1·min -1，女性的中位数值分别为 10 秒、165、10 厘米、915 秒和 39 mlO 2·kg -1·min -1。年龄与健康相关体能之间没有显著的相互作用。本研究提供了警察健康相关体能的性别和年龄特异性正常值。这些研究结果可用于检测身体适应能力较低的警察群体。因此，可以在系统内实施旨在提高身体适应能力水平的政策。
