Background
Workplace Health Promotion (WHP) is becoming increasingly important. Individualized exercise counselling provides a person-oriented measure of WHP which sets out to increase the level of sport activity. The aim of the present study was to check the efficacy of individualized exercise counselling in workplace.

Method
86 employees received counselling in 60–90-min sessions. Their level of sport activity was ascertained both during the intervention and 6 weeks later. At T2, the perceived impulse to change their personal behaviour was also determined. The data were analysed by calculating Spearman’s rank correlation and conducting t-tests.

Results
Overall, the level of sport activity increased from 173 to 228 min/week (ES = 0.34). Particularly those people who had been inactive (ES = 0.76), < 90 min/week (ES = 0.63) or 90–180 min/week active (ES = 0.53) at T1, report a higher level of sport activities at T2.

Discussion
The findings speak in favour of integrating individualized exercise counselling into WHP, whereby the person-oriented measure should be supplemented by environmental strategies.
