a HEALTHY home gym SHOCK and awe
What is so SHOCKING?
For the past
decade or so, scientists have pondered how exercising can boost brain function. Anything else you ask?
Working up a sweat can help manage physical and mental stress.
Exercise also increases concentrations of nor-epinephrine, a chemical that can moderate the brain’s response to stress. So
go ahead and get sweaty—working out can reduce stress and boost the body’s
ability to deal with existing mental tension. Win-win!
Do you need motivation?
Exercise releases endorphins, which create feelings of happiness and
euphoria. Studies have shown that exercise can even alleviate symptoms among
the clinically depressed. For this reason, docs recommend that people suffering
from depression or anxiety (or those who are just feeling blue) pencil in
plenty of gym time.
Regardless of weight, size, gender, or age, exercise can quickly
elevate a person's perception of his or her attractiveness, that is, self-worth. How’s
that for feeling the (self) love?
While exercise and a healthy diet can’t “cure” Alzheimer’s, they can
help shore up the brain against cognitive decline that begins after age 45.
Working out, especially between age 25 and 45, boosts the chemicals in the
brain that support and prevent degeneration of the hippocampus, an important
part of the brain for memory and learning.
Learn a Motivation Trick
The warm and fuzzy chemicals that are released during and after
exercise can help people with anxiety disorders calm down.
Hopping on the track or treadmill for some moderate-to-high intensity aerobic
exercise (intervals, anyone?) can reduce anxiety sensitivity. And we thought
intervals were just a good way to burn calories!
