Behind the Badge: The Making of a Police Officer

Before our recruits even step foot in the Arizona POST Police Academy, they go through a 7-week pre-academy to get mentally and physically ready for what’s ahead. One key part of that prep? Rucking. For two hours at a time, Officer Mike Gamez leads recruits on rucking walks, carrying weight and building endurance to prepare them for the physical challenges of the academy. These early mornings aren’t just about fitness. They build grit, teamwork, and the mindset needed to serve and protect Tucson
