This study is testing whether supervised physical exercise can help improve thinking, memory, and concentration problems in people with bipolar disorder. Some people with bipolar disorder experience difficulties with focus and mental clarity, even when their mood is stable. This trial will see if adding regular aerobic and strength training to standard treatment makes a real difference.
Many people with bipolar disorder struggle with thinking and memory problems that can get in the way of work, school, and relationships — even when their mood is well-controlled with medication. Researchers want to know if exercise might help improve these cognitive difficulties and overall quality of life.

If you join the exercise group, you would attend supervised exercise sessions three times per week for 12 weeks, doing aerobic activities and strength training. You would also continue your regular bipolar disorder treatment. All participants will have thinking and memory tests, mood check-ins, and quality-of-life assessments at the start and after 12 weeks. The control group continues regular treatment without the added exercise program, so researchers can compare how much the exercise helped.
