Objective

To investigate the association and dose–response relationship between leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) and the risk of incident common mental disorders.

Methods

This study included 388 559 participants without a history of mental disorders at baseline from the UK Biobank cohort. Weekly total energy expenditure from LTPA was calculated and categorized into four groups: inactive (0MET-h/week), insufficiently active (>0–7.49MET-h/week), sufficiently active (7.5–14.9MET-h/week), and highly active (≥15MET-h/week). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios ( HR), and restricted cubic splines were applied to explore the dose–response patterns.

Results

During a median follow-up of 12.71 years, 27 875 incident cases of mental disorders were documented. Compared with the inactive group, the risk of mental disorders was significantly reduced in the below recommended, meeting recommended, and above recommended groups, with HR of 0.84 (95% CI: 0.81–0.87), 0.76 (95% CI: 0.72–0.79), and 0.73 (95% CI: 0.70–0.76), respectively. Restricted cubic spline analysis demonstrated an L-shaped nonlinear association. LTPA was inversely associated with the risk of depression, anxiety disorders, and schizophrenia, while no significant associations were found for bipolar disorder or eating disorders.

Conclusion

LTPA is significantly inversely associated with the risk of developing mental disorders. Protective effects were observed even at activity levels below current recommendations, and a clear dose–response relationship was evident.
