Exercise is a non-negotiable part of good health, but that doesn’t have to mean logging hours at the gym or forcing yourself to go on a run.
There are so many benefits of movement that go far beyond the cardiovascular effects and weight management that are so often the focus of exercise. It’s actually an essential piece to maintaining prime cognitive function throughout life.
On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, I talk to Ryan Glatt about the benefits of exercise for brain health. We discuss why enjoyment is key when it comes to exercise, and how to create a brain-healthy exercise program.
