LCC Police Chief Daryl Gaines sits down with Jim Owens to discuss the positive impact that physical health has on mental health.
Chief Gaines talks about how physical fitness is required to be able to perform competent policing, and it helps manage the high amount of stress that comes with the job. There are inherent physical risks in doing the work of policing, and police departments are providing better support and resources for officers to stay in shape not only to do the job, but also to manage stress.
There are many ways to approach developing aerobic (power) and anaerobic (endurance) fitness. Jim and Daryl, both avid cyclists, talk about the mental fortitude that is developed during endurance training and events. Cycling is a low-impact form of exercise and can be a way of achieving new levels of physical as well as mental fitness.
