Physical and mental health symptoms can reduce participation in physical activity. The current study assessed the impact of a bout of exercise on mood state in depressed participants with and without current physical pain. We enrolled a community sample of 147 participants ( = 45.5; = 11.98; 87.1% female) with elevated depressive symptoms. Individuals rated their mood state, completed a 1-mile walk test on a treadmill, and rated their mood state again. Pairwise comparisons between pre- and post-exercise mood ratings were statistically significant (p < .001) and showed improved mood state. People with at least moderate pain showed greater decreases in sadness and irritability from pre- to post- exercise bout. A single bout of exercise was associated with decreased sadness, anxiety, and irritability, and increased energy in a sample of adults with depression. The changes in sadness and irritability were greatest in those who reported at least moderate physical pain.
身体和心理健康症状会降低人们参与体育活动的积极性。本研究评估了一次性锻炼对伴有或不伴有当前身体疼痛的抑郁参与者情绪状态的影响。我们招募了 147 名有抑郁症状的社区样本参与者（平均年龄 45.5 岁，标准差 11.98，87.1%为女性）。参与者评估他们的情绪状态，在跑步机上完成 1 英里步行测试，然后再次评估他们的情绪状态。锻炼前后的情绪评分的两两比较具有统计学意义（p<.001），显示出情绪状态的改善。至少有中度疼痛的人在锻炼前后的悲伤和易怒程度上有更大的下降。在有抑郁的成年人样本中，单次锻炼与悲伤、焦虑和易怒的减少以及精力的增加有关。在报告至少有中度身体疼痛的人群中，悲伤和易怒的变化最大。
