The present study aims to analyze the occurrence and characteristics of chronic pain on State Policemen in training, evaluating possible preventive and/or corrective effects of self-regulated attitudes. It uses quantitative techniques of exploratory and descriptive nature. As instrument for collection of data, it applied a pain inventory with participants from the Centro de Formação de Praças (CFAP) in Belém, Pará. The sample consisted of 32 privates in training. It verifies that almost all the policemen indicated the construction and maintenance of an exercise routine, but it is necessary to investigate more closely the related factors to evaluate the level of self-regulation of these individuals and its effects on the health of the policemen.
