With the increase in the world obesity index, the interest arises if the anthropometric factors and the age exert an influence on the physical fitness of the sedentary individuals. The aim of the study was to correlate body mass, height, body mass index (BMI) and age with measures of cardiorespiratory capacity VO2max, VO2la, max pulse and HR rest. The study included 90 individuals who underwent cardiorespiratory tests on a treadmill with subsequent execution of resting electrocardiogram. The oxygen consumption (VO2), by direct measurement, was determined through a respiratory valve of oxygen and carbon dioxide interconnected to a metabolic system. Statistical analysis was performed by Spearman correlation. Age, body mass and BMI were negatively correlated with VO2max; body mass and BMI also correlated negatively with VO2la; the max pulse correlated positively with body mass, height and BMI; and HR rep correlated negatively with age. The higher the body mass and the BMI lower cardiorespiratory capacity (VO2max, VO2la, max pulse). As the age increases, there is a decrease in VO2max and resting HR. And higher the height the higher is the max heart rate.
