Effects of acute exercise on mood and well being in patients with major depressive disorder
Article Abstract:
A study is conducted to determine if a single bout of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise would improve mood and well being in individuals, who are receiving treatment for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The results indicate that although 30 minutes of either moderate-intensity treadmill exercise or quite rest is sufficient to improve the mood and well being of patients with MDD, exercise appears to have a greater effect on the positively valenced states measured.
