| dc.description | The connection between physical exercise and psychological well-being is undeniable. Physical activity releases endorphins, which are neurotransmitters that act as natural pain relievers and generators of well-being, this translates into an instant improvement in mood. When performing physical exercise, the brain also benefits greatly since the growth of new brain cells is stimulated through neurogenesis. In addition, there is an increase in brain capacity, what we know as neuroplasticity. When you incorporate enjoyable physical exercise routines; whether walking, jumping, using resistance bands, or practicing yoga, it not only has positive effects on physical health but also directly influences psychological well-being. In fact, these types of practices almost automatically contribute to reducing levels of anxiety and depression, thus improving emotional quality of life. The main objective of this investigation is to compare people who engage in regular physical exercise with people who do not engage in regular physical exercise, and to analyze the impact this has on their psychological well-being. This was possible through a quantitative, comparative and cross-sectional type of study. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Es innegable la conexión que existe entre el ejercicio físico y el bienestar psicológico. La actividad física libera endorfinas, neurotransmisores que actúan como analgésicos naturales que generan bienestar; esto se traduce en una mejora instantánea del estado de ánimo. Al realizar ejercicio físico, también se ve muy beneficiado el cerebro, ya que se estimula el crecimiento de nuevas células cerebrales mediante la neurogénesis. Además, se produce un aumento en la capacidad cerebral, lo que se conoce como neuroplasticidad. Cuando se integran rutinas de ejercicio físico que se disfrutan, ya sea caminar, saltar, usar bandas elásticas o practicar yoga, esto no solo tiene efectos positivos sobre la salud corporal, sino que también influye de manera directa en el bienestar psicológico. De hecho, este tipo de prácticas contribuyen a disminuir, casi de forma automática, los niveles de ansiedad y depresión, mejorando así la calidad de vida emocional. Como objetivo principal de esta investigación está el comparar individuos que realizan ejercicio físico regularmente con individuos que no realizan ejercicio físico regularmente, y analizar el impacto que tiene esto sobre su bienestar psicológico. Esto fue posible mediante un tipo de estudio cuantitativo, comparativo y transversal. | |
