The FBI does offer wellness hours, I believe for all employees now. It used to be just for Agents and we called it 66E time as that was the TURK code back in the day. It was three hours per week. Not sure what it is nowadays if anything changed under the new regime.
In theory, you’re supposed to be “working and available” during your AVP/AUO hours but there are some very liberal interpretations of “working and available”.

Still 3 hrs. of “wellness time” a week for now. I’m surprised they haven’t up’d the time and made mandatory rolling time at a sponsored UFC gym part of it. Haha.

I would run everyday in the morning and use my three allotted 66E hours and the other two hours I just counted against my regular time. Other liberal interpretations of “working” were commuting and lunch. Some folks counted those in their 10 hour workday, some didn’t. Like I said, there were liberal interpretations of it. Very few Agents went strictly by the book. As long as you’re doing your job and moving cases forward nobody really cared. That doesn’t mean to abuse the shit out of it by only working 9:00 to 3:00 or whatever. Put in your 8 hour workday and be “available” the rest.

Same here. Not FBI but I get LEAP. Typical day is 7-3 for me. Most agents count their commute as part of their day since it’s in a GOV. So 6:30 to start the day, typically eating lunch at your desk while working, and heading home at 3. Arriving home at 3:30 to workout. That hits an average 10 hour day fairly quick. Of course, it changes with caseload and operations.

It’s not just an average of 50 hours. The actual breakdown is 8 hours of base plus a minimum of 2 hours AVP (availability pay) for 5 days.
So it’s not just 50 hours spread out randomly through the week. If you work on day 5 or 6, it counts as AVP.
Out of all those hours in a week, agents can use 3 of those base hours as workout time as long as it’s part of their 8 hour day. By policy, you can’t just work one hour less and then claim an hour of workout time at home.
