Have you ever wondered whether exercise could do more than just help you stay in shape or improve your physical health? Research shows that exercising for about 20 minutes a day can help boost mental performance.
More specifically, engaging in an aerobic exercise, such as cycling, swimming, or walking, at a moderate intensity followed by a cool down session has been shown to improve cognitive functions. Concentration, memory, and functional capacity, which refers to the ability to effectively complete activities, can all improve with exercise.
