Engaging in exercises such as cycling, aerobics and gymming for more than 90 minutes a day can worsen mental health than not exercising at all, a new research suggests.
In fact, people who exercised between three and five times a week had better mental health than people who exercised less or more each week.
The study, published in journal The Lancet Psychiatry, found that people who exercised between three and five times a week had better mental health than people who exercised less or more each week.
Adam Chekroud, Assistant Professor at Yale University in the US, said, “Previously, people have believed that the more exercise you do, the better your mental health, but our study suggests that this is not the case.”
