  Abstract:  Background. Progressive loading is one of the basic principles of training, along with a proper nutrition. Hemp seed oil obtained by cold pressing is a source of polyunsaturated fatty acids omega 3 and omega 6 required for a balanced diet. Aims. The study investigated the effects of dietary supplementation with hemp seed oil on aerobe effort capacity in experimental conditions. Methods. The research was conducted in two groups (n = 10 animals / group) of male Wistar adult rats. Group I comprised rats trained to exercise with progressive loading, group II included rats trained with progressive loading and supplemented with hemp oil. In both groups aerobic exercise capacity was determined daily for 27 days using the swimming test. Results. Compared with control grup (I) we found significant increases of the aerobic capacity in the group supplemented with oil (II) throughout the study. Conclusions. Our study shows a favorable effect of polyunsaturated fatty acids on aerobic capacity considering progressive loading.
