Transcript of Neuroscientist reveals shocking link between exercise & change in your brain | Mel Robbins #Shorts

This comes from studies that I've done in my lab. First, we did studies in people that are low fit. They move their bodies less than 20 minutes a week for the last three months. Then we put them on an exercise regimen. Aerobic exercise, 45 minutes, three times a week. And what we found is that three times a week, 45 minutes aerobic activity would improve their mood, improve their focus, and improve certain forms of hippocampal function. And so we did the next study in mid-fit people already working out 2-3 times a week. So we had people staying at 2-3 times a week and those that went up to seven times a week. The take home from that study is that the more you worked out, the more brain changes you got. Just find a way to get it into your life, importantly, in a way that you enjoy.
