Police officers face immense physical and mental demands on the job. Strength, endurance and overall fitness aren’t just optional — they’re essential for peak performance and long-term health.
In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, host Jim Dudley talks physical fitness with Dru Mejico, a 13-year law enforcement veteran with the Orange County (California) Sheriff’s Department and the founder of 911 Strong and the Fit for Duty Academy.
With a background in strength and conditioning coaching, Dru has helped more than 1,000 first responders improve their fitness, lose fat and build muscle — ensuring they are ready for anything. Dru’s insights offer a roadmap for police officers looking to stay fit and perform at their best on and off duty. Connect with Dru on Instagram.
