Abstract: The aim of this study was to identify achievements in motor tests and dietary habits as predictors of cardiovascular endurance among Medical rehabilitation students. The sample included 159 Medical rehabilitation students from Novi Sad, Serbia (37 males, 122 females) who attended physical education classes twice a week. The battery of tests from the applicable protocol and dietary questionnaire was used. The exploratory factor analysis and multiple linear regression were applied. The multiple regression analysis determined a statistically significant relationship between specific motor tests and the Shuttle Run Test (R=0.828, p=0.000), but no significant differences between the factors obtained for dietary and the Shuttle Run Test. The findings highlight the importance of tailored exercise and nutrition plans and education on healthy lifestyles and emphasize the need for further research to support overall health.
