Introduction: Low levels of physical activity (PA) and high levels of obesity have been reported in individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID), associated with the multiple barriers they face in accessing sports facilities or exercise programs, placing them in a situation of vulnerability and increased risk of possible cardiovascular disease (CVD). Objective: to analyze the risk factors for developing CVD in individuals with ID who attend an occupational training center. Methods: A sample of 11 men and 7 women aged 18 to 60 years was formed. Data on PA levels were obtained from their caregivers, as well as measurements of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHR) and blood pressure. Results: Women obtained higher results in adiposity indicators while men obtained higher blood pressure, all variables without significant differences, however, women presented values considered at risk for CC, BMI and BFI, while men in CC and BFI, and both women and men presented low levels of PA. Conclusion: Most of the individuals showed alterations in the adiposity markers studied, especially at the central level and even more so in women, as well as a very poor level of PA, so that both risk factors could contribute to the development of CVD.
