Abstract

Background: Health is a state of physical, mental and social well-being and not only the absence of disease. Physical activities are framed and performed purposefully to improve well-being. There are certain factors that influence a person’s physical and mental health, including age, types of physical activity, intensity of physical activity, and detection of chronic diseases in the body. Exercise shows effects after a minimum of 2 months and has been chosen on the basis of its exceptional benefits. There is a great relationship between physical activity and improved quality of life among gym-goers. 
Objective: The objective of the following research is to identify the correlation between physical activity levels and quality of life in gym-goers. 
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in Delhi. A total of 171 gym-goers of the age group 18-25 years were recruited to find out the correlation between physical activity and quality of life assessed through SF-12 and IPAQ. 
Result: As per findings, there was no significant correlation between physical activity levels as measured by IPAQ and quality of life measured by SF-12 among gym-goers, as the r-value is -0. 0854 (p = 0. 2668). 
Conclusion: The findings of the present study suggested that there were no significant changes observed in physical activity levels and quality of life in gym-goers. More studies are required in the field of this research to identify the most promising results.
