A few games can be done in water as an effort to stimulate aquatic learning activities that have a PAIKEM principle (Boyke Mulyana, 2018). Water activity is a very enjoyable activity and has a good impact on cardiorespiratory endurance if applied systematically and structured. This research aims to determaine that water activities can be increase the cardiorespiratory endurance. This research is Quasi Experimental with one group pre-post-test research design, where treatment was given treatment for 12 weeks. The population in this reaserch were students who attended the aquatic learning course. Consists of two classes; A and B totaling 74 students. The sample was taken by purposive sampling, total samples in this study were 42 students who had passed the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Inclusion: a). Male students b). Willing to follow the research process c). Age 18-20 years. Exclusion: Students in physical health. The independent variable in this reaserch is water activity carried out in before process of aquatic learning, while the dependent variable is cardiovascular ability of male students. Analysis passed the data normality test and paired T test. Be based on the results of the paired sample t test obtained a value of t = -7,634 and significance = 0,000 <0,05, it can be stated that there is a significant effect on water activity against Cardiorespiratory Endurance. The model of water activities applied with the right composition can be means of methods for increasing cardiorespiratory endurance of PJKR man students.
