<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p> Aim: The paper aims to demonstrate the efficiency of an individualized exercise training protocol on preventing cardiovascular complications, by improving hemodynamic parameters and body composition of young obese patiens. Material and method: The group included 35 subjects from which 21 female and 14 male with age between 18 and 25 years and the period of the study was 9 months of which 6 of training. At the beginning and at the end of training, subjects were assessed in regard to body composition and hemodynamic parameters. To design an individualized exercise training program, testing and monitoring protocol was based on using of some modern methods among which: cardiopulmonary exercise testing and bioimedance body composition analyses. Statistical analysis was performed by using paired t test. Value of the coefficient p under 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Training programs performed during 6 months have brought significant improvements in the following parameters: body mass index, resting heart rate, systolic blood presure and dyastolic blood pressure, allong with maximal blood presure in effort. Conclusions: The concept of individual intervals training brought improvements of targeted parameters, causing weight loss but also improvements of cardiovascular risk.</p></abstract>
