• Paste quoted text from the Methods section of the article on the next line. Do not include quotation marks or a bullet mark:

We employed a randomised controlled design with three different groups: green walking (outdoor walking in connection to Nature), urban walking (outdoor walking in an urbanised area), or control (regular class time without any physical activity). Randomisation was computer-generated through permuted blocks in a 1:1:1 ratio.

• Write your translation on the next line:

Researchers randomly placed participants into 3 different groups, which included walking in a natural environment, walking in an urban environment and staying indoors with no activity. The groups were randomised by a computer.

Introduction:

• Paste quoted text from the Introduction of the article on the next line. Do not include quotation marks:

Thus, the purpose of the present study was to more rigorously evaluate the hypothesis that Nature exposure has the possibility to enhance the affective benefits of outdoor physical activity. In this aim, we conducted a large randomized controlled trial comparing emotional changes following a 30-min outdoor exercise bout performed at a controlled and standardized level of intensity in either a natural countryside setting or an urban surrounding.

• Write your translation on the next line:

The purpose of the researchers was to figure out if walking outdoors in nature added to the emotional benefits of exercise. They compared how people felt after walking 30 minutes in nature or an urban environment in the same intensity.

Results:

• Paste quoted text from the Results section in the article on the next line. Do not include quotation marks:

Results for Negative Affect were quite different. More specifically, follow-up pairwise comparisons demonstrated that, regardless of the environment conditions, walking for 30 min at moderate intensity significantly reduced NA (GW: t₍₄₉₎ = −6.54, p < 0.001; UW: t₍₄₉₎ = −5.91, p < 0.001). On the other hand, NA remained statistically unchanged for participants in the control group, t₍₄₉₎ = −1.83, p = 0.995.

• Write your translation on the next line:

Negative effects after walking regardless if it was in nature or an urban environment decreased. Whereas negative effects remain unchanged in the control.

• Paste quoted text from the Discussion section of the article on the next line. Do not include quotation marks:

By showing that green exercise has especially positive effects on emotional well-being that go beyond the benefits of being physically active, the present study identifies the various opportunities that outdoor sports can offer in order to help prevent or alleviate mental health problems.

• Write your translation on the next line:

Exercising in nature can improve mental health in addition to the physical benefits. Mental health problems can be prevented or reduced by engaging in physical activity outdoors.

Future directions should use different age groups and different times of the day to see which age ranges  outdoor physical activity affects the most and what time of day could be ideal for exercising outdoors

The most challenging part of the paper was interpreting the statistical results, I would need further help or education to understand these tables.
