What kind of exercise can exercise the brain?

The part of the brain is a very important body part in the human body. There are many important organs such as nerve centers in the brain. Once symptoms of disease appear in the brain, it will directly threaten the normal life safety of the body. Therefore, we must ensure the health and safety of our brain in normal times. There are many ways to exercise your brain. So what kind of exercise can exercise the brain? Today we will give you a detailed introduction.

"Regular aerobic exercise combined with complex exercises that require certain skills can best train the brain." Researchers said that regular aerobic exercise includes brisk walking, jogging, swimming, cycling, yoga, etc. These exercises can make our mood peaceful and happy and keep us away from the trouble of insomnia. If you can stick to low-intensity aerobic exercise for 30-40 minutes four times a week, after 16 weeks, the time it takes for people who never exercised before to fall asleep will be shortened by half, and the total sleep time will be extended by 1 hour. This can increase the levels of brain chemicals related to cognitive functions such as memory and attention, thereby improving cognitive function. Sticking to regular aerobic exercise can give you flashes of inspiration while you’re working, and good ideas will flow in endlessly.

Complex sports that require certain skills, including ball games, jazz dance, Latin dance, etc., require coordination of multiple parts of the body and help exercise the brain's control. When doing these sports, you often need to use your brain to think. For example, when pitching, a baseball player needs to think about how to use subtle arm movements to throw a variety of unpredictable balls. Dancers not only need to move their bodies, but also inject emotions, and every look and expression must be designed. In darts, the left and right hemispheres of the brain work closely together, and the eyes, heart, and hands are coordinated.

Exercise can also increase blood flow, continuously supply oxygen and glucose to the brain, and ensure that brain cells are in good working condition. People who do mental work often overuse their brains, which is like a rubber band that stays taut for a long time. Most people therefore need more oxygen and glucose to improve brain efficiency, so exercise becomes even more important for them.

The question of what kind of exercise can exercise the brain has been introduced very clearly above. In normal times, as long as you pay attention to exercising according to the methods introduced above, you can achieve very good exercise results. When exercising, be sure to control the amount of exercise. If the amount of exercise is too large, it will be unhealthy for your body.
