- Abstract
A sedentary lifestyle is characterized by the development of automation and lack of movement that causes various ailments and diseases and thus negatively affects the health of people. This study aimed to determine the effects of recreational swimming on the psychosomatic status of middle-aged women. The subjective assessment of psychosomatic status (SPPSS) scale was used in the study to assess ailments (disorders) of certain body parts and organic systems before and after the experimental treatment. The results of the research show that there were statistically significant changes in all tested variables, and the largest changes were in the variables: back pain (Z = -5,169, p < 0.001) and leg pain (Z = -4,941, p < 0.001), while the smallest changes were in variables indigestion (Z = -3,983, p < 0.001).
