Training programme was realised twice a week for 60 minutes over 3 months. Most of the participants had higher education and a sedentary job. Results: Study results revealed a significant decrease of body weight, circumference, body fat and BMI. Greater reduction of mean values of the measured parameters was observed in subjects participating in aerobic workouts. Conclusions: Training programmes in a fitness clubs, led to a significant reduction in body weight, circumferences, body fat and BMI. Greater reduction of mean values of the measured parameters was observed in subjects participating in aerobic workouts.References
