With the aim to develop the standards of aerobic capacity as one of the basic elements of physical fitness of the military personnel, the authors worked out an original method, based on determination of energy requirements for different military activities, and on WHO principle for estimation of working capacity. According to the data on application of these standards in the group of 176 officers in the Yugoslav Armed forces, shown in the paper, even 53.4% og the officers have the aerobic capacity less than required for the duties they perform. Comparing their standards to those used in some other armies, the authors point out the validity of the same and an imperative to be introduced into Yugoslav Armed forces.
