Effect of combined aerobic and resistance training with self-selected intensity on clinical parameters and fitness in a patient with mixed anxiety and depressive disorder: a case report
Combined aerobic and resistance exercise with self-selected exercise intensity is a promising tool for improving clinical and fitness outcomes in patients with mixed anxiety and depressive disorder. While this case report offers valuable preliminary insights, further research featuring larger samples, control groups, robust study designs, extended intervention durations, and comprehensive follow-up assessments is essential to substantiate these findings.
