Abstract

The norms for maximum aerobic capacity available are with respect to Western population. India is a tropical country with a diverse population with respect to several aspects such as height, weight, stature, nutritional status, socioeconomic conditions etc.as compared to Western population. The present study was carried out to determine the norms for maximum aerobic capacity in healthy young Indian male population aged 18-25 years deduced from a linear relationship between heart rate and oxygen consumption. The Queen’s College Step test was chosen for the study due to its lower height of the steps and slower cadence which are suitable for the young Indian male population as already established by earlier studies.
