The Role Of Pulmonary Vital Capacity, Hemoglobin Levels And Body Mass Index In Determining Maximum Oxygen Volume In Non-Athlete Students
Abstract
This study aims to examine the relationship between lung vital capacity, haemoglobin levels, and body mass index (BMI) in determining the maximum capacity of oxygen volume (VO2Max) in non-athlete students. The study used a correlational method involving 103 non-athlete students who attended exercise physiology courses, with an average age of ± 20 years. VO2Max was measured using the Multistage Fitness Test, lung vital capacity was measured using a spirometer, while BMI was calculated based on height and weight. Measurement of haemoglobin level was done using Easy Touch Omron device. Data analysis was conducted using the regression method. The results showed a weak correlation between lung vital capacity and VO2Max (R = 0.378). Haemoglobin levels also showed a weak correlation with VO2Max (R = 0.248), while the relationship between BMI and VO2Max was very low (R = 0.127). This study shows that lung vital capacity has a positive but weak relationship with VO2Max in non-athlete students. Haemoglobin levels also showed a weak association, while BMI had very little influence on cardiorespiratory fitness. These findings indicate that other factors may have a more dominant role in determining fitness levels in this population. The implications of this study may provide further insight into the factors that influence cardiorespiratory fitness in non-athlete university students
