摘 要：The purpose of this study was to find out the type of relationship between VO2 max and percentage of body fat in male secondary school students. The research sample consisted of 30 male students studying at Al-Khawarizmi High School in Tlemcen. Their average age was 16.56 ± 0.69. We based our research on books and scientific journals, site visits, and personal meeting. We used the descriptive approach. The test was carried out and the measurements were taken at the institution＇s yard and the doctor＇s office respectively. We used the running test for one mile to measure the maximum oxygen consumption. The skin folds were taken in three areas： the chest, abdomen and mid-thigh, to estimate the proportion of fat in the body. The results showed that the relationship between maximum oxygen consumption and body fat percentage was strongly reversed at a significant level of 0.01, with Pearson correlation coefficient -0.597.
