Wikipedia: Green exercise
Encyclopedia article on physical activity performed in natural environments—parks, woodland, coastlines—often overlapping popular “nature and health” discourse; useful orientation next to shinrin-yoku trials, not a substitute for PubMed effect sizes.
Scope
Summarises deliberate movement outdoors in green or blue natural settings as a research and public-health theme—adjacent to shinrin-yoku (often slower, sensory-first) and broader greenspace exposure syntheses.
Evidence discipline
Wikipedia may cite mood, self-esteem, and small physiological study threads; pooled SBP/DBP, salivary cortisol, HF-HRV, and GRADE judgments belong to PubMed-linked meta-analyses on Forest bathing (forest-bathing), Daily sunlight (daily-sunlight), and Twohig-Bennett greenspace rows—not article prose alone.

Outcomes
- Heart Rate VariabilityTertiary article: no primary quantitative outcomes; use linked PubMed forest-bathing, greenspace, and walking trials for pooled biomarker and mood endpoints.
