Abstract:
Physical and mental health play an important role in managing and characterizing a person's quality of life (QOL) and physical activity is proposed as one of the ways to improve QOL and well-being. This study aimed to quantify the effect of different fitness training programs and frequency on health-related quality of life (HRQOL). The percentage of participants with high levels of fitness is higher among men than women. There is an association between the level of PF activity and age. Аs expected, PF activity is lower in the elderly compared to the younger and middle-aged participants. From the HRQOL domains, low general health and mental health scores. High and medium-frequency training can presumably help improve the total quality of life scores, as well as scores for Physical and Mental components, significantly affecting domains PF, GH, VT, RE and MH. To improve the SF domain, high-frequency training is preferable. These results can become important for the implementation of programs aimed at improving the HRQOL of the population.

Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
Exercise and Muscle Performance
Endurance exercises
Endurance exercises involve running, swimming, or cycling, which require repetitive movements with low force output. When a person engages in endurance exercise, a few noticeable changes occur in their skeletal muscles. For instance, the number of capillaries...
