One of the most important factors in the success of an intervention/rescue operation in toxic/ flammable / explosive environments is appropriate training process for rescue personnel taking part in these interventions. Intervention can take place in small (confined) spaces, in high temperature / humidity areas, with low visibility conditions, which would make rescuer’s activity even more difficult, during interventions. Training is a process of psychophysiological preparation, which produces a high (maximum) return in professional activity of rescuers. The maximum yield is obtained by increasing the body’s functional capacity to highest degree. For this purpose, it is necessary to use systematic and methodical exercise according to pedagogical rules. The current paper presents a mobile workout training facility equipped with an area of enclosed spaces with different training routes, on various degrees of difficulty, allowing for simulation of some interventions in such spaces, having the possibility of creating high temperature and humidity, low visibility, etc. environments within the training facility, with the purpose of preparing intervention and rescue teams for situations close to real ones.
