Story at-a-glance
  • Cognitive decline is on the rise among Americans of all ages, leading to memory loss, trouble focusing, and poor decision-making. Regular physical activity significantly improves brain function, memory, and attention at any age
  • Engaging in moderate-intensity exercises like yoga, dancing, or even exercise-based video games enhances memory and decision-making skills, without the need for intense workouts
  • Brief, daily sessions of lighter exercise have shown greater cognitive benefits than longer, more strenuous routines, especially for children, adolescents, and individuals diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
