Summary

Moderate to vigorous physical activity can reduce symptoms of mental disorders like major depression, anxiety disorders, insomnia, and ADHD. However, in Germany there are no group therapeutical exercise programs for psychotherapy patients in an outpatient context. The current study aims to examine the effectiveness of a manualized exercise program, named ImPuls, which consists of a supervised and non-supervised endurance training in moderate to vigorous intensity and behaviour change techniques.
