Abstract in brief

  • This study systematically reviewed and analyzed various exercise interventions and their effects on sperm quality in men, finding that activities like indoor/outdoor aerobic exercise, resistance training, and competitive sports can significantly improve sperm parameters such as volume, motility, and total sperm count.
  • The research compiled data from 14 randomized clinical trials involving 1079 men, demonstrating that most exercise types, especially aerobic and resistance workouts, tend to reduce sperm density and necrotic sperm but can enhance overall sperm quality in various aspects.
  • The results suggest that specific physical activities, notably outdoor aerobic, resistance training, and competitive sports, are effective in improving sperm health, offering potential non-pharmacological options for treating male infertility related to sperm quality.]
