Exercise IMMEDIATELY boosts your energy, improves reaction time, and improves your ability to shift and focus attention — an effect that lasts at least two hours.
Exercise also helps protect against depression, dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease; changes the brain’s anatomy, physiology, and function; and actually creates NEW brain cells in the hippocampus, increasing brain volume and long-term memory. It may be the most transformative thing you can do for your brain today.
But as a wise mentor pointed out: “So what? Who cares?” And another: “Knowledge is not power — taking action on that knowledge is power.”
Down for taking action but don’t know where to start? I’d love to help — helping people feel better, stronger, and more confident in their body is my “why.” Start here.
