ADHD in the Gym

This week we're going to be jumping - yeah, jumping because we're talking about exercise. I hope you're ready for some Jazzercise - but if that's not your groove I've got some other options for you as well. Somewhere in our heads, we all know that exercising more is something we "should" do, but it feels like the easiest thing in the world to put off. I mean just because when I look out my window and I can see it's raining doesn't mean I need to stay on my couch right now.

In today's episode, we're going to be learning some of the reasons exercise is great for our ADHD brain. How we can work on making it easier to fit exercise into our schedules so that we actually do it, some different ways we can get our blood flowing and our hearts beating. And finally a few things we can do to make sure that we are keeping up with our routines.

Today's Top Tips

  1. Exercise is great for our ADHD brains by increasing our levels of the neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine.
  2. You want to try to get in 20-30 minutes of exercise a day, but if you're just starting out make sure that you're easing into it to avoid burning out.
  3. Find a type of exercise that you find fun and switch it up sometimes. A great way to do this is through sports and classes.
  4. Build-in some accountability for your exercise routines to make sure that you keep them going.
