 Push-ups of the applied policing skills assessment is 10 push-ups to a cadence. To a cadence means staying in time with a recorded rhythm. Push-ups are done on the toes. Hands are placed on the ground under the shoulders and a neutral spine must be maintained. On each downward movement, the applicant's chest must touch and hold on a 7 cm cone placed on the ground until the cadence signals for the applicant to move into the up position. The applicant holds the up position with arms extended until the cadence signals for them to move to the down position and the process is repeated for 10 push-ups. If the applicant fails to stay in time with the cadence, does not touch the cone or any other part of the body touches the ground, the push-up is not counted.
