Abstract
Aerobic physical working capacity (PWC) or aerobic fitness is one of the health indicators that characterize the cardiovascular, respiratory and other systems of the body functional state. Youth and student physical activity levels are very low. 254 students participated in aerobic fitness activities test to find improvement opportunities in aerobic fitness using precisely dosed workloads. The research results show that aerobic fitness is not dependant from physical activities with low intensity. Training program with gradually increasing and varying workload and intensity increases aerobic fitness much more than the program with the same volume, average intensity but homogeny workload. KEYWORDS: Maximal oxygen consumption, aerobic fitness, precisely dosed workloads
