Sažetak
The aim of this study was to determine whether basic fitness parameters have the impact on the specific military activity
such as walking 18km with 25kg of load. The members of Croatian Armed Forces (30 soldiers) were tested before the
beginning of the training program. The study has included variables for the assessment of muscular endurance: push-
-ups in 2 minutes, sit-ups in 2 minutes, maximum number of pull-ups before dropping from the bar, bench press with
70% of body weight-max number of repetitions, max number of squats for 60 seconds, then the variables for the assessment
of aerobic capacity: the 3200m run and relative oxygen uptake using the direct method of measurement on a treadmill
as well as the variable for the assessment of body fat (body fat %). As the criterion variable, it was used the 18 km
walking with 25 kg of load. The results of the regression analysis have shown statistically significant relation of predictor
variables with the criterion variable. The two variables, 3200m run and RVO2 had a significant Beta coefficient.
Based on the obtained results it could be concluded that great cardio-respiratory endurance has a much larger impact on
the walking length of 18 km with a load of 25kg than other fitness parameters.
