A new study in the Archives of Neurology suggests that high-intensity exercise could improve cognitive performance in older adults who have mild cognitive impairment.
In the study, 33 adults with mild cognitive impairment were sorted into high-intensity aerobic exercise and stretching control groups. At the end of the six-month trial period, those in the exercise group displayed markedly improved cognitive performance. Interestingly, the effects were more pronounced in women, although both sexes experienced gains in cardiorespiratory fitness and body fat reduction.
