Abstract
Introduction. This work aimed to assess the influence of systematic physical activity on changes in the blood pressure parameters, and thus on metabolism, distribution of fat, percentage of muscle, water, bone mass in students’ bodies and their BMI.
Material and methods. The study comprised 98 students who do not regularly undertake physical activity, as well as 98 students who undertake sport at least 3-4 times per week. Patients were examined individually as per the established pattern: tissue bioimpedance analysis, waist and hip circumference measurement, Martinet endurance test. The ending contains an anonymous lifestyle survey.
Results. Lower mean values of BMI, WHR and fat percentages were recorded among students who regularly practice sports. Those same students also displayed better endurance.
Conclusions. The conducted research clearly prove that systematic physical activity has a beneficial effect on the human body. It guarantees maximum endurance of the body, protects against many metabolic diseases, affects the proportions of body composition and constitutes an inseparable element of well-being.

Key words:
physical activity, metabolism, bioimpedance, BMI, metabolic diseases
