The Effects of Aerobic and Resistance Exercise on Depression and Anxiety: Systematic Review With Meta-Analysis
H. Banyard, K. Edward, et al.
Exercise markedly improves symptoms of depression and anxiety: a systematic review and meta-analysis of 32 randomized controlled trials found large benefits for depressive symptoms (SMD −0.97) and moderate benefits for anxiety (SMD −0.66). Aerobic, resistance, or combined training were all beneficial. This research was conducted by Harry Banyard, Karen-Leigh Edward, Loretta Garvey, John Stephenson, Liane Azevedo, and Amanda Clare Benson.
