E11: Train the Brain (Aerobic Exercise)

This show goes into the science behind what we need to do to train our brains through exercise. As a fitness coach I'm far from being a neuroscientist. But from the article I'm referencing, I certainly understood the benefits of using cardio/aerobic style equipment to help the brain. What does it take? A little knowledge and effort to get our minds and bodies in motion. The process starts with the why, which I go over in this show. Then we touch on the what, which are the forms of exercises you can do in a gym and if you don't have access to a gym. One of the key areas is, we all face stress throughout our lives. Our brains are stressed throughout the day. How then, can we make use of simple exercises to relieve that stress? I explain this in this show. Hopefully you all will benefit from listening to this episode of Beyond the Workout. I've also added a brief personal "commercial" with a special offer for my listeners. Then I add an interesting workout program for the few that detest exercising but know they need to.

I accept any and all suggestions for future shows. What topics are of interest to you? Those of you who are my contemporaries, over the age of 45, we have health concerns. We are constantly looking for ways to be mentally fit and sharp. As well as feeling physically fit and energized. Those concerns are areas I want to address. True, this show is Beyond the Workout, where we talk about more than just exercise, but at times we will reflect on beneficial workouts and exercises for our age group. Take your time and enjoy the show. Feel free to listen to other shows the I've presented. The topics are always helpful.

In the meantime, take care of yourselves. Live wisely, and when it comes to your fitness, do it for you, do it for health and do it for LIFE! Reach out to me through my website ericdunston.com and make an appointment for an assessment. Here is where you can gain access to the two programs I mentioned in this Train the Brain show: I DON't WANT TO WORKOUT Program & TRY VIRTUAL TRAINING.
