Abstract

The key objective of this investigation was to look at the association between physical activity and satisfaction with life in middle-aged adult men. The study involved 300 middle-aged men aged ranged from 40 years to 65 years (M=50.72,SD= 5.95). The physical activity data was obtained using IPAQ and life satisfaction was assessed using the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS). The simple linear regression analysis revealed a substantial positive relationship between physical activity and life satisfaction. Middle-aged adult males who engaged in regular physical exercise reported greater levels of overall life satisfaction. These findings emphasize the relevance of including physical activity into daily routines to increase life satisfaction in middle-aged adult men. More study is needed to investigate the underlying processes and to demonstrate the association between physical exercise and life happiness in this demographic.
