POLICE FITNESS | Combined with demands of shift work & dealing with stressful scenarios a good level of fitness can support officers’ recovery between shifts, long term health & operational performance. I hope this 🧵 provides tools for an informed & pragmatic approach 💙⬇️

Please note this advice. Drownings increase when air temperature goes above 30C. It is a very dangerous time of year; the water is still cold enough to produce cold shock. Spread the word, lifesaving through education. #physiology
The @metoffice have issued an alert for this weekend as England is set to see its first heatwave of the year. After a number of recent drownings we want to encourage everyone to take care whilst in or near the water this weekend. Please share our advice:

If you use Dashboards in Sport, I WROTE THIS PAPER FOR YOU in @SportsMedicineJ! Doesn't matter if you use @MovellaHS, @Smartabase @Teamworks, @KitmanLabs or @catapultsports, if you handle missing data by 'doing nothing', your interpretations are wrong. https://t.co/THSJHMFvOJ
