Abstract

Background: Related to work productivity, the fitness level is one of the important conditions to be able to work optimally. On the other hand, based on an analysis of the daily activities of ITB lecturers and staff, in general they lack physical activity. Such conditions are of course very concerning because if you have low physical activity for a long time can have an impact on health, bad habits have the potential to make it easier to get degenerative diseases such as metabolic disorders, heart disease, cholesterol, diabetes and others. Purpose: On that basis, mapping the fitness level and physical activity of lecturers and staff in the ITB environment is very appropriate to be done as a first step in an effort to increase work productivity. Methods: Retrieval of data through the Rocport test, which is a test to measure the ability of aerobics by constantly walking as far as 1.6 km, then the output of this test will produce predictions of VO2Max ability. The sample in this activity are lecturers and staff aged 45 years and over. Results: From this study it can be described that ITB lecturers and staff are divided into several categories, namely the 0% thin category, 40% normal, 45% fat, 10% obesity. Then the condition of fitness with a very low category of 10%, low 16%, enough 23%, good 23%, very good 2%, superior 6%. In daily activities doing physical activity in the low intensity category is 36%, moderate is 34% and high is 30%. Conclusion: Physical activity with a low category has a tendency to fall into the normal and fat category, seen from the Body Mass Index. But because of the support of nutritional intake and good rest, the fitness level tend to be in the moderate and good category.
