Subjects participated in treadmill exercise programs for 12 weeks according to the exercise prescriptions. Statistical analysis was performed using analysis of one-way Anova. Result of this study were as follows.

1. Physical characteristics of subjects and cardiopulmonary function significantly(p<.05) increased after 12weeks aerobic exercise programs.
2. Rate pressure product was significantly(p<.05) decreased after 12weeks aerobic exercise programs. also, Exercise capacity significantly(p<.05) increased after 12weeks aerobic exercise programs.

In this study, the treadmill exercise programs suitable for the obese was developed and applying this programs weight, percent body fat and RPP were reduced. thus Conclusionally, cardiopulmonary functions were improved.
