Abstract in brief

Green exercise, which combines physical activity with exposure to nature, significantly improves mental and physical health indicators like blood pressure, self-esteem, and mood.
Pleasant scenes, whether rural or urban, enhance the positive effects of exercise, demonstrating a synergistic benefit, while unpleasant scenes diminish these benefits, especially rural ones.
The study suggests that integrating nature into exercise routines can be beneficial for health, but negative or threatening environmental images can reduce these positive outcomes.]
