    It is a systematic review that included 11 articles, no older than 10 years, published in English and Spanish, extracted from the PubMed, Scielo, Journal Medical, Cochrane Plus, and BVS databases. The main topic of these articles was the effectiveness of physical exercise to improve the quality of life of people on hemodialysis. 66.6% of the articles are from Spain, 8.3% from Chile, Brazil, Korea, and Taiwan, respectively. Results: 66.6% of the articles demonstrate that physical exercise improves muscle strength, while 41.6% reveal an improvement in functional capacity. 100% of the articles showed improvements in the quality of life of people on hemodialysis, mainly in the physical (75%) and mental (41.6%) dimensions. Other dimensions were also observed, including emotional state, social functioning, general health perception, and bodily pain. Conclusions: Physical exercise is effective in improving the quality of life of people on hemodialysis, as it has a positive impact on the physical, mental, emotional, social functioning, general health perception, and bodily pain dimensions.
