Childhood fitness reduces adult depression

A recent Australian study revealed that children with higher physical fitness in childhood are less likely to develop depression in adulthood. Children who underwent tests of cardiovascular, respiratory, and muscular fitness and performed well in them were less likely to develop depression later on, regardless of the type of sport they practiced. The findings confirmed that improving physical fitness during childhood can contribute to enhancing mental health in the future, although the study did not establish that not engaging in sports necessarily leads to depression, but rather shows a clear relationship between childhood fitness and mental health in adults.
