Franklin Police gym makeover helps with fitness efforts

"The year was 1991. The Franklin Police Department was dedicated and with it came a state-of-the-art gym. As the years passed many components of the gym were frozen in time. More time passed and we realized that the gym equipment was probably older than most of our newer officers.

This fall the FPD started making a push in addressing a major factor in officer wellness, physical fitness. As they say, out with the old and in with the new. The gym was given a facelift and outfitted with new modern gym equipment that allows officers to have a great workout in a short time if needed. 
We replaced old equipment with box jumps, new flooring, kettlebells, an assault bike, a rower, new bumper plates, and bars, with more equipment to come. In addition to the equipment, we’ve also implemented a new officer fitness policy and a new officer-run workout
program for the entire department. 
A big thank you to Chief Lynch, Sgt. Bob MacQuarrie, Officer Eric Cusson, Officer Andressa Rosa, and everyone"
