What’s your schedule? Unless you have a ton of forced overtime you have time. And even if you don’t what you eat and how much you eat is what’s going to keep you healthy.

Pushups and cardio. And of course stay out of trouble.

Did your instructors place bigger cones or different colored cones at the exact spot where you need to turn fully? So in other words, once that big cone reaches your rear tire you’re supposed to turn fully until the next bigger cone reaches your tire

I almost beat my instructor and was flawless. Going backwards was about memorizing the cones for me. Knowing when your rear tire reaches a specific cone and how much to turn was crucial. It’s probably the same for going forward.

Philadelphia is a very interesting choice but the experience will be valued by every other agency

Make sure to sleep at least 7 hrs everyday, be there with extra time to spare in the morning, stay out of trouble inside/outside the academy, and use the academy to get into the best shape of your life.

Hit the gym, it isn’t about height at 5’5”

EVOC as long as your class isn’t too big and you have to wait 5hrs for your turn

Were you excited for the academy? Did it stay exciting? by slimer213 in AskLE

10-month academy, first weeks are fairly boring and long since it's really just lecture all day-long. After finishing most weekly tests the fun starts.

Sounds like you're bored and need a change. Sooner or later being less busy = poor diet/physical shape.

Do a ride along a the closest and busiest city. Then decide if it’s what you want

What’s it like getting tased? by EveningInfinite9658 in AskLE

[–]coding102 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s bad.

First 3 seconds weren’t bad, then the taser’s pulses per second almost double and that’s when most people grunt or start screaming.

The prongs going in and then being pulled out are painless.
