Well I can honestly say that I paid for it, HUGE. I received a last minute phone call from the Law Enforcement Agency I am in the process of joining with my date for the physical aptitude test. I completed it an hour and a half ago and I am extremely humbled. There was one other female there, and she had taken the test three times previously. This was her fourth attempt, and I can see why now.
The test consists of a circuit like this
Station one needs to be done 6 times, with an alternating fall to push up/sit up position after the hurdle before starting a new lap. Station two is a 70 pound push/pull, consisting of completing 6, 180 degree arcs pushing the weight followed by four additional controlled falls, finished by 6 additional 180 arcs pulling the weight.
These two stations are to be completed within 4 minutes and 45 seconds. After resting for a minute you then move on to station three which is a controlled carry of 70 pounds 25 metres to a cone and back.
So.... if that doesn't make you want to hurl I don't know what does.
I can honestly say that never in doing all of Jillians videos have I ever felt my throat burn like it did then. When I was finished ( and for the recored I didn't pass) my throat burned so much that I thought it was bleeding.
I have a lot of work to do before I try again, and I WILL try again.
