Abstract
In a group of 68 middle-aged sedentary men participating for 2 months in hard physical training, 5 were initially advised against participation for medical reasons; 54 subjects completed the training program. The frequency of orthopaedic complications was high. A slight decrease of the number of abnormal ECG findings at rest and at work (premature beats and ST-changes) was found after training. The blood pressure reaction during work in relation to the heart rate response was not changed. A significant reduction of the iron and cholesterol levels in the serum occurred.
