Sažetak
The aim of this study was to determine predictive values of body mass index, motor abilities, level of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior on cardiorespiratory fitness of pupils. The sample consisted of fourth grade pupils (N=74) of the city elementary school aged 10 to 11 years. The predictor set of variables consisted of body mass index, two motor tests for the assessment of agility and repetitive strength as also daily time spent in sedentary activities and high, medium and low intensities calculated on the basis of the Youth Physical Activity Questionnaire (YPAQ). The criterion variable was the result in 3 min running test. The relationship was calculated by the regression analysis. The results of this sample show a high percentage of physically active children, 60 (81%) who meet the WHO recommendations of ≥60 min/day of moderate to vigorous PA. The highest partial effect on cardiorespiratory fitness shows test for the assessment of coordination, agility and explosive strength (BETA=-.507 ; p=.000) and body mass index (BETA=-.306 ; p=.000), followed by high-intensity PA (BETA=.184 ; p=.004), moderate (BETA=.132 ; p=.037), and the negative impact of sedentary activities (BETA=-.136 ; p=.026). The obtained results and the characteristics of this sample indicate that organized PA in school have an important role in promoting and increasing of a daily high to moderate intensity physical activity.
