Physical inactivity is considered a risk factor for depressive manifestations. These variables can be measured with easily accessible tools such as the Yesavage Scale for depressive state and the IPAQ for physical activity. This study aimed to determine the effect of physical training on the distance walked by post-COVID patients at the Respirando2 respiratory therapy center. A physical training program was designed, and the 6-minute walk test was used to measure the effects on the distance covered. The conclusion is that physical training can lead to significant changes in the distance walked and its cardiac, respiratory, and functional physical components, improving the quality of life of post-COVID patients.El 20% de los adultos mayores padecen de trastornos mentales donde el estado depresivo es la primera causa de minusvalía, la inactividad física es considerada como factor de riesgo para las manifestaciones depresivas.
