The purpose of this study was to determine the maximal cardiopulmonary response of healthy male college students in treadmill forward walking Subjects were composed of fifteen healthy male college students. Maximal heart rate and VO₂max Were determined for each subjects by administering a Bruce treadmill exercise test of the before and after forward walking training for eight weeks, Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to evaluate the changes of the forward walk training, The study showed that maximal heart rate were 170.4 beat/min in pre-training, and 177.0 beats/min in post-training respectively resting heart rate was 71.7 beat/min in pretraining and 68.3beat in post. The maximal oxygen consumption were 2283.3㎖/min, 45.6％ in pre-training, and 2736.9㎖/min, 57.3％ in post-training. There were significant differences (P＜0.05) in maximal heart rate, heart rate ratio of maximal heart rate(％ HR), oxygen consumption and oxygen consumption ratio of maximal oxygen consumption(％ VO₂max) between the pre and post-training, The total lipid and HDL cholesterol, Triglyceride level were 633.3㎎/㎗, 40.8㎎/㎗, 99.3㎎/㎗ in pre-training, and 510.1㎎/㎗, 57.8㎎/㎗, 85.6㎎/㎗ in post-training and there were significant increased of HDL cholesterol in post-training. We concluded that 7km/hr forward walk training for eight weeks was more effective exercise program to promote health in the college male students.
