---

The purpose of this analysis was to provide information on the relationship between and several variables incluing sex, body mass index (BMI), physical exercise, age, hemoglobin (Hb) among Senior High School students in Jakarta. A linear regression model was applied to demonstrate such relationship using data collected by the Physical Fitness Study on Senior High School Students in Jakarta. A total 1016 students (95 percent were 12-19 years of age) consisting of 54 percent boys and 46 percent girls were involved in the study, and the VO2 max was measured through the cicloergometry test; among those tested, the cardiorespiratory endurance of 52 percent of samples was considered as bad. The VO2 of boys was 7 ml/kg body weight/minute greater than of girls. The average VO2 max of boys was 38.01 ml/body weight/minute, while the average of girls was 30.82 ml/body weight/ minute. VO2 max was significantly influenced by sex, age, BMI, physical exercise and Hb. An increase of 1 kg/m2 MBI was followed by a reduction of 1.05 ml/kg body weight/minute VO2 max. A monthly increase of physical exercise by 1 hour was followed by an increase of 0.02 ml/kg body weight/minute VO2 max. A one year increase of age was followed by a 0.47 ml/kg body weight/minute reduction of VO2 max. The reduction of VO2 max was occured earlier than of the general cases. An increase of 1 g/100 ml Hb was followed by the reduction of 0.31 ml/kg body weight/minute VO2 max. These five variables explained the 25 percent variations of VO2 max.
