    The aims of research were to determine the Police University students’ level of physical activity as well as to determine the differences in relation to gender. The total sample consisted of 60 subjects (30 male and 30 female). For assessing the levels of physical activity International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used. Based on IPAQ scores (MET), the level of physical activity is classified as high, moderate and low. Results of descriptive statistics showed that the average value for a male student was 8157.63 ± 3365.00 MET, while for a female one it was 3793.57 ± 3152.80 MET. ANOVA results showed that there is a statistically significant difference between genders at the general level (F = 26.870, p = 0.000), as well as at the partial level for high (F = 21.229, p = 0.000) and moderate (F = 31.898, p = 0.000) level of physical activity in favor of males

    The aims of the research were to determine initial state of Police University students swimming skills and effect of swimming course on swimming performance. Research consisted of initial and final testing with 10 swimming classes between. The sample consisted of 255 subjects (160 males; 95 females). Initial testing showed for males: 25 (15.63%) belonged to non-swimmers, 78 (48.75%) to semi-swimmer (MSS) and 57 (35.62%) to good-swimmer group (MGS); for females: 14 (14.74%) belonged to non-swimmers, 72 (75.79%) to semi-swimmer (FSS) and 9 (9.47%) to good-swimmer group (FGS). ANOVA showed statistically significant differences between good-swimmer and semi-swimmer groups (F=27.505, p=0.000 for males; F=27.657, p=0.000 for females). The t-test results after swimming course showed that all groups achieved statistically significant better swimming times: MSS-F=3.444, p=0.001; MGS-F=3.594, p=0.001; FSS-F=12.373 and FGS-F=4.054, p=0.004, p=0.000, while ANOVA showed remaining of statistically significant differences between good-swimmer and semi-swimmer groups (F=51.508, p=0.000 for males; F=24.764, p=0.000 for females)

    The aim of this research is to determine the changes in aerobic endurance of students achieved after taking part in Special Physical Education 1, general part - SPE 1 program activities realization. The initial and final measurements of aerobic endurance (Cooper’s test of running for 12 minutes) in 119 of students (39 female and 80 male students, aged 19 to 21) of the University of Criminal Investigation and Police Studies in Belgrade-CPU students were carried out during the freshmen year of undergraduate studies at the beginning and the end of the summer semester, i.e., at the entrance exam and after SPE 1 realization. The Student’s t-test for dependent samples was used to determine the significance of the differences between the variables monitored at the initial and the final measurement. The results for the sample of female students (N=39) showed that after teaching SPE 1, a statistically significant change (p<0.018) in the aerobic endurance occurred (M=2288.2±218.27m, Mean±SD; t=-2.473 at the final measurement vs M=2226.8±277.07m, Mean±SD at the initial measurement). The results obtained for the sample of male students (N=80) showed also that after realized teaching SPE 1, a statistically significant change (p<0.021) in the above mentioned variable occurred, also (M=2847.7±185.77m, Mean±SD; t=-2.512 at the final measurement vs M=2747.8 ±237.03m, Mean±SD at the initial measurement). It can be concluded that after the SPE 1 course taught during the freshmen year of undergraduate studies aerobic endurance significantly improved in students of both genders.Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je da se utvrde promene u aerobnoj izdržljivosti nakon realizovane nastave iz predmeta Specijalno fizičko obrazovanje 1, opšti deo-SPE 1. Inicijalno i finalno merenje aerobne izdržljivosti (Cooper-ov test trčanja u trajanju od 12 minuta) 119 studenata (39 devojaka i 80 muškaraca, starosti od 19 do 21 godine), studenata Kriminalističko-Policijskog Univerziteta (CPU) u Beogradu realizovana su u okviru prve godine osnovnih akademskih studija, na prijemnom ispitu i na kraju letnjeg semestra, odnosno pre i posle realizacije SPE 1. Za utvrđivanje značajnosti razlika između posmatranih varijabli na inicijalnom i finalnom merenju korišćen je Studentov t-test za zavisne uzorke. Rezultati u ovom istraživanju na uzorku studentkinja (N=39) pokazali su da je nakon realizovane nastave iz predmeta SPE 1, došlo do statistički značajne promene apsolutne vrednosti pomenute varijable na finalnom merenju (p<0.018) aerobne izdržljivosti (M=2288.2±218.27m, srednja vrednost±SD; t=-2.473 na finalnom merenju vs M=2226.8±277.07m, srednja vrednost±SD na inicijalnom merenju). Rezultati dobijeni na uzorku muškaraca (N=80) takođe su pokazali da je nakon realizovane nastave iz predmeta SPE 1, došlo do statistički značajne promene apsolutne vrednosti pomenute varijable na finalnom merenju (M=2847.7±185,77m, srednja vrednost±SD; t=-2,512 na završnom merenju nasuprot M=2747,8±237.03 m, srednja vrednost±SD na početnom merenju). Može se zaključiti da se nakon realizovane nastave SPE 1 na prvoj godini osnovnih studija aerobna izdržljivost značajno poboljšala kod učenika oba pola
