Physical activity supports the same brain systems targeted in clinical treatment”— Dr. Stanford Owen GULFPORT, LA, ...

Exercise does more than strengthen muscles; it also rewires the brain. In a study published in Neuron, researchers reveal ...

The work reveals that the brain — in mice and, presumably, in humans — is actively involved in the development of endurance, the ability to get better at a physical activity with repeated practice, ...

Adults who did regular aerobic exercise for a year had brains that appeared about one year younger on MRI scans than people ...

The effects of exercise would not be nearly as powerful without the input of the brain, according to new research. A study on ...

The activity of certain neurons may influence our endurance for exercise, and these could be targeted to help us run faster ...

How far you can run might be down to brain not brawn, study finds - Brain cells found to help body recover faster after exercise ...

It turns out we might be building up our brain when we exercise.” Betley is corresponding author of the researchers’ published paper in Neuron, titled “ Exercise-induced activation of ventromedial ...

A long-running study following thousands of older adults suggests that a relatively brief period of targeted brain training ...

Studies on the neurons of mice suggest our own human endurance may have more to do with the brain than our physique.

The connection between physical movement and brain function has emerged as one of neuroscience’s most significant discoveries. The human brain, despite representing only 2% of body weight, consumes ...

Nationwide, only about 30% of people meet the federal guidelines for physical activity, and even in famously outdoorsy ...
