A recent study published in Menopause aimed to, “compare the long-term effects of outdoor and indoor training on affective outcomes and adherence to exercise training in postmenopausal women.” The authors conducted a 12-week randomized trial study and enrolled 23 older women ages 52-69 years old who were assigned to either outdoor training or indoor training. The authors assessed depression symptoms and physical activity levels before and after the intervention. The study found that, “exercise-induced changes in affective valence and adherence to training were significantly higher for the outdoor training group.” The authors concluded that, “outdoor training enhances affective responses to exercise and leads to greater exercise adherence than indoor training.”
