Most studies support the idea that regular activity may lead to prevention of mental health disorders. Exercise can be a mood elevator. But what is the optimum amount of physical activity associated with better mental health?
A new study out of Columbia University demonstrated that while those who work out 2.5-7.5 hours per week have better mental health than average, any more than that tends to have a detrimental effect.
However, more studies should be done to determine exactly the correlation between workout and mood.
This is the first study confirming that too much exercise can be related to poor mental health.
