Background: Characteristics of the metabolic syndrome include the co-occurrence of a number of cardiovascular risk factors, such as insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, visceral obesity, and hypertension, which are improved by baduanjin exercise. Purpose: Determining the impact of Baduanjin workouts on quality of life in patients with metabolic syndrome. Methods: A randomized prospective clinical study included 60 patients with metabolic syndrome. They were recruited from an outpatient clinic for internal diseases at Qalioup General Hospital. Two equal groups were randomly assigned to the patients. For twelve weeks, Group A engaged in daily baduanjin exercises plus medical treatment, and Group B was given only medical treatment. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), waist circumference (WC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL), fasting plasma glucose (FGL), the short form 12 mental component score (SF12MCS), and the short form 12 physical component score (SF12PCS) were compared before interventions and after 12 weeks. Results: According to analysis conducted within groups, all variables evaluated between pre- and post-treatment indicated a statistically significant difference in the group A, while the group B did not experience any statistically significant difference. Upon analyzing the group differences, it was found that, in all measure variables, no statistically significant difference was seen (p-value > 0.05) between the two groups prior to treatment. while, there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups for all variables after the treatment (P
