Today, in our country, the health of students is one of the most important criteria for the development of the young generation, and rational approaches to assessing the level of health of students remain relevant in modern society. Using the standard method of the PWC170 step test, the influence of tobacco Smoking on physical performance in Smoking and non-Smoking students of youth universities in Tyumen was studied. The survey was conducted in 118 Smoking and non-Smoking youth students (18±0.72 years) enrolled in three specialized universities in Tyumen. Physical performance of 18-year-old students studying at specialized universities in Tyumen is significantly lower than the standard values, which is associated with a number of combined factors: passing final exams in a secondary school and related emotional and mental stress; passing a competitive selection for admission to the University; hypokinesia and hypodynamia that preceded admission to the University. It is shown that non-Smoking students ' physical performance on the PWC 170 step test is significantly higher than that of tobacco-Smoking students. There are significant differences in the maximum oxygen consumption between Smoking and non-Smoking students, which should be taken into account when planning the dosage of physical activity in physical education classes.
