Abstract

Obesity or being overweight is a factor in health that greatly lowers one's confidence. A lot of prevailing causes of death has been linked to obesity. The Body mass index (BMI), abdominal circumference, and hip circumference are anthropometric indicators commonly used to measure fat tissues in the body. An overweight or obese person feels heavy and stiff when exercising. However, regular and precise exercise routines can improve fitness. Cardiorespiratory endurance is a component of fitness. This study aims to determine the relations between body mass index, abdominal circumference and hip circumference, and cardiorespiratory endurance using the Rockport method. Body Mass Index can be obtained from comparing the body weight in kilogram with height in square meter. During the study, the measurement of abdominal circumference and hip circumference was performed using the measurement tape with centimeter accuracy level and the measurement was recorded in standing position. The Physical fitness test was performed by jogging at constant speed for 1600 meters and the time was recorded. The Non parametric Spearman test was used for the data analysis to determine the inter-variable correlation. The Body mass index, abdominal circumference and hip circumference weren't related to cardiorespiratory endurance. However, it is important to maintain a normal BMI
