*'''[[Health]]''' - Health indicates | *'''[[Health]]''' - Health indicates the player's condition, and as such, is reduced by sustaining injuries. When the player's health is depleted, they are [[Wasted]], which results in mission failure, and the player being sent to hospital to be revived. Health can be regained by eating food, saving, or picking up a health "power-up" or first-aid kit. | ||
*'''[[Armor]]''' - Armor counts as an extra layer of health | *'''[[Armor]]''' - Armor counts as an extra "layer" of health; it can be acquired via an Armor [[pickup]], purchased at an [[Ammu-Nation]] store, or, in some games, acquired by entering the Police [[Enforcer]]. The exact abilities of Armor vary from game to game -- generally, Armor will absorb all gunfire and explosive damage until it is entirely depleted; damage from falls and vehicle impacts may deplete Armor, or may leave Armor intact and deplete Health. In Vice City, shotgun attacks can reduce health as well as depleting armor. | ||
*'''[[Wanted Level]]''' - | *'''[[Wanted Level]]''' - The Wanted Level indicates the level of police interest in the player. If the player commits serious crimes (and the police are aware of them), it will indicate the extent of the crimes, and how much force [[Police]] will employ in capturing (or killing) the player. If the police catch the player, he or she will be [[Busted]]. | ||

These reflect CJ's physique, physical abilities and expertise; unlike in other GTA games, these change according to the player's actions. | ||
*'''Fat''' - This statistic measures [[CJ]]'s body fat. Fat is increased by eating [[food]]. Fat is decreased by exercising, either at a [[gym]] or in the world at large. Being overweight naturally changes CJ's appearance, and eventually lessens most physical capabilities (including health), but CJ is required to have at least a small amount of fat -- without it, exercising will reduce CJ's health instead of his fat. | *'''Fat''' - This statistic measures [[CJ]]'s body fat.

At a gym, this is much faster - on the treadmill or stationary bike, CJ will shed 2.5% fat every 14 seconds. When lifting weights, CJ will shed 2.5% fat for each repetition. Also, if the player waits 48 [[time|ingame hours]] without eating, CJ will shed fat at a rate of 2.5% per hour. | ||
*'''Muscle''' - This indicates CJ's muscular development. Muscle influences the [[Respect]] and [[Sex Appeal]] stats. Muscle is increased by working out at a gym, or otherwise exercising (running, riding bikes, swimming). A 100% muscle statistic is detrimental to Sex appeal and will prevent [[CJ]] from initiating contact with some [[girlfriends]] | *'''Muscle''' - This indicates CJ's muscular development.

*'''Respect''' - Respect indicates | *'''Respect''' - Respect indicates CJ's level of influence in the [[Grove Street Families]]. Having high enough Respect allows CJ to recruit gang members. Many [[missions]] increase Respect when completed, as do successful [[Gang Wars]]. Respect is lost by not wearing [[clothing|gang colors]] in gang territory. CJ will also lose respect if he kills members of his gang, or loses territory to other gangs. | ||

It is influenced by the CJ's [[Vehicles in GTA San Andreas|Vehicle]], [[Barbers|Hairstyle]], [[Clothing in GTA San Andreas|Clothing]], Fat, and [[Muscle]]. Collecting all 50 [[Oysters]] can prevent some of the pitfalls of low Sex Appeal (girlfriends being dissatisfied with CJ's appearance, or potential girlfriends not wanting to talk to CJ) | ||
*'''Stamina''' - The Stamina statistic indicates endurance with regards to running, swimming, and cycling. Low stamina means CJ will grow fatigued easily and stop sprinting after short distances. Stamina has to be built up over the course of the entire game by exercising. In [[GTA: Vice City Stories]], a stamina bar also exists whenever the player is in the water. If it runs out, the player will drown. | *'''Stamina''' - The Stamina statistic indicates endurance with regards to running, swimming, and cycling.

*'''Oxygen''' - Oxygen represents how long CJ can hold his breath underwater. An oxygen meter is displayed whenever CJ [[Swimming|dives]] underwater. Lung capacity is increased by swimming underwater for extended periods, and by collecting [[Oysters]]. | *'''Oxygen''' - Oxygen represents how long CJ can hold his breath underwater.
