Introduction: According to studies, a low physical capacity before surgery is linked with smaller weigh loss after surgery and increases risks of peri-surgical complications. Practice of regular physical activity in obese individuals improves their physical capacity. No specific recommendation on physical activity prescription is currently available for this reduced fitness population. This project aims to evaluate if a Pre-Surgical Physical Activity Training (PreSPAT) improves physical capacity, surgery effectiveness and decreases peri-surgical complications in morbidly obese individuals.
