Popis: This study compared health-related physical fitness (HRPF) between military policemen (MP) from the Special Police Operations Battalion (BOPE) and from the Traffic Police Battalion (BPTRAN) and related the military time of service with the variables of HRPF. The sample was composed of 47 MPs from the city of Patos, state of Paraíba, Brazil, aged between 26 and 49 years old and who had served for 3 to 30 years (BOPE, n=25; BPTRAN, n=22). A battery of tests was performed: anthropometric assessment, Wells sit-and-reach test, 1 min sit-up test, elbow flexion and 20 m shuttle run test. The BOPE and the BPTRAN did not differ regarding HRPF, except for flexibility, which was higher for the BOPE (p=0.026). In addition, the findings showed that the time of service negatively affected the morphological, neuromuscular and cardiorespiratory fitness of the MP officers. RESUMO O estudo comparou a aptidão física relacionada à saúde (AFRS) entre policiais militares (PM's) do Batalhão de Operações Policiais Especiais (BOPE) e do Batalhão de Policiamento de Trânsito (BPTRAN) e relacionou o tempo de serviço dos militares com as variáveis da AFRS. A amostra foi composta por 47 MPs da cidade de Patos-PB, com idade de 26 a 49 anos e tempo de serviço de 3 a 30 anos (BOPE, n= 25; BPTRAN, n= 22). Foi realizada uma bateria de testes: medidas antropométricas, teste de sentar-e-alcançar no banco de Wells, de abdominal de 1 min, de flexão dos cotovelos e o teste vai-e-vem de 20 m. Constatou-se que o BOPE e o BPTRAN não são diferentes em relação à AFRS, exceto na flexibilidade que foi maior no BOPE (p= 0,026). Adicionalmente, os achados demonstraram que o tempo de serviço interfere negativamente na aptidão morfológica, neuromuscular e cardiorrespiratória dos militares.
