Abstract

The level of physical fitness and participation in exercise is a part of an indicator of successes in sports development. Therefore, the measurement of those aspects is salient to support the government program. This study investigated intangible assets of Indonesian people using Sport Development Index (SDI) in 2017. Participants (n = 3400) from 34 provinces in Indonesia were tested their maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max). In addition, they filled out the participation dimension questionnaire. Result revealed that Indonesian people had low levels of physical fitness and their participation in exercise were insufficient. Additionally, Central Java residents had the highest score both in physical fitness and participation, while West Sulawesi and West Nusa Tenggara, and Papua residents were the lowest in both dimensions. Collectively, these findings suggest that SDI of Indonesia is relatively low.
