Abstract

This research was carried out with 30 people between 18 and 30 years of age who attend a gymnasium in the city of Quito. The objective was to compare whether the physical exercise they do each week affects their psychological well-being, through the application of a psychological well-being scale, to observe and compare the responses and establish whether there is a relationship between exercise and well-being. Psychological well-being is the search for the balance of mental faculties for the optimal functioning of the human being. This is why, to achieve this benefit, people look for ways in which they perceive that they can obtain and achieve them. To achieve this, people generate both personal and social changes, and this is the part on which the study is focused. In this research it will be demonstrated whether there is a relationship that, if the person who trains manages to obtain the psychological well-being that the psychologist Carol Ryff talks about, which, through six dimensions, scientifically established, the human being avoids psychopathological illnesses and obtains a better quality of life.
