The influence of purposeful physical loads on physical fitness
of the individuals exercising in fitness centres
The increase of general physical activity and interest
in personal health in population demands attractive
and effective training programs, new methods, new
knowledge, ergonomic therapy equipment and safe
environment from sport specialists. It’s also required that
training programs should not be just safe and effective
but also the result should be evident and measurable.
The aim of the research was to explore the influence of
different types of physical load on physical fitness in groups
of males and females. The healthy 25-50 years old women
(n=16) and men (n=20) who attended sport club „Linija“
took part in the research. We divided the participants into
two groups according to the training character, in order to
evaluate the effect of applied programs. 8 women and 10
men participated in A group and had dominantly aerobic
training sessions. Other 8 women and 10 men participated
in B group and had dominantly strength endurance training
sessions. The program lasted for two months and the
training sessions were held two times per weeks for 90 min.
The participants were assessed before training sessions.
Retest was made after the period of entire program.
Such parameters of body composition were assessed:
the body weight, body mass index, body fat percentage,
the proportion of waist and pelvis. Physical fitness was
determined by maximum oxygen intake, aerobic capacity

Summary
and strength of different groups of muscles.
After 2 months training sessions the weight and body
mass index haven’t changed significantly. Body mass
index has slightly increased (0,3 kg/ m 2 ) for men in A
group and decreased (0,2 kg/m 2 ) in B group. Body mass
index hasn’t changed for women. Body fat percentage
has decreased after 2 months training program
significantly (p
