Currently, the concept of health involves not only a psychological and physical well being of the individual and community, but also a certain ability for physical effort, and regaining your strength after effort, of resistance against the unfavorable environmental factors, against diseases, and a certain longevity, in concordance with the socio-economic and geographical conditions in which a person performs his/her activity. Thus, a person cannot be considered healthy if they do not have a good work capacity and/or a certain nonspecific general resistance to the unfavorable environmental factors and to diseases. This study aimed to assess the work capacity in a group of untrained subjects.
