Abstract

During a specific time of life, aging is a natural and inevitable process which affects the decline of cognitive capacity and psychological disorders. However, a lot of people do not manage a correct quality of life due to physical fitness or psychological variables such as anxiety and depression. The aim of the present study is to analyze the relationship of anxiety and depression with quality of life related to health and physical fitness level in middle-age women. A total of 116 women aged between 41 and 79 years participated in this study. A cross-sectional study was used to assess clinical characteristics, anxiety and depression variables, health-related quality of life and physical fitness of participants. The results indicated that high levels of depression were not presented. However, higher HADS-anxiety and HADS-depression status groups showed the worst physical fitness test except thelower body muscular strength. It is necessary to highlight the relevance of engagement in physical-educative programs to decrease levels of depression and anxiety, improving subjects’ quality of life related to health and physical fitness in middle-age women.
