摘要：Physical activity, as a very important factor conditioning ontogenesis and state of health, is the key element of a health promoting life style. Physically able individuals manifest a considerably higher motivation for work and life satisfaction, while those with low physical activity are more frequently exposed to higher mortality.In recent relevant literature, the important role of physical activity of society is emphasized in concern for its health [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].Adequate physical activ ity decreases the risk of many diseases, especially cardiovascular diseases, obesity and diabetes [6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14].It is worth bearing in mind that the attitudes towards the evaluation of physical effic acy or activity has changed over the years. As early as in the AAHPERD (American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance) test, elements were introduced intended to provide information about health, including cardiopulmonary fitness, which are consistent with the tendencies in the report by Bouchard et a l.
