Exercise doesn’t just slow brain aging, it can reverse it In a year-long trial, older adults who did aerobic exercise (~65–70% max heart rate, 3x/week for 30 minutes) increased hippocampal volume by about 2%, instead of the usual 1–2% yearly shrinkage This net gain reflects neurogenesis driven in part...

Exercise doesn’t just slow brain aging—it can reverse it Studies show that older adults who stick to a year-long aerobic exercise regimen can increase their hippocampal volume by 2%, effectively reversing the natural age-related decline of 1-2% in this critical brain region This effect is linked to lactate, a byproduct of exercise that fuels brain function and triggers BDNF, a protein that helps grow and protect neurons Regular physical activity isn’t just good for the body—it’s essential for a sharper brain

No pharmeceutical can rival exercise when it comes to slowing the aging process - particularly the aging brain. A large-scale trial investiated th effect of aerobic exercise (running, cycling) on cognition in the 20- to 67-year age range. Here’s what they found: Better thinking skills as you age: Exercise helped people’s executive function - that’s your brain’s ability to manage tasks, plan, and focus. Thicker brain cortex, regardless of age: • Higher cognitive reserve- aiding task flexability and improvisation • Resilience against brain aging and neurodegenerative disease • Improved neural plasticity, essential for lifelong learning and skill acquisition • Bolsters emotional regulation Real-world Application: The way the workouts were implemented could be a practical recommendation for improving brain health for the general public. Consistency is key: participants exercised about 40 minutes, four times a week for six months. Gradually increasing effort: they started easy (55-65% max heart rate) and slowly increased their workout intensity (65%-75% max heart rate). Monitoring progress: using heart rate monitors helped them stay in the desired exercise intensity. Flexibility: participants could choose the exercise (running or cycling) they preferred and set their schedules. #everydayoctober

Exercise doesn’t just build muscle—it rewrites how a critical hormone, IGF-1, functions in the body Instead of circulating freely in ways that could fuel harmful cell growth, exercise redirects IGF-1 to where it matters most: your muscles and brain This shift promotes muscle repair, boosts neurogenesis (the growth of new brain cells), and even strengthens your body’s defense against cancer Yet another benefit of exercise to add to the list Go lift some weights

Exercise is *remarkably* beneficial for the brain. High fitness levels in midlife delayed dementia onset by 9.5 years in women. Larger brain volumes have also been linked to increased physical activity. Maintain youthful brain volume by embracing exercise. We can transform our brain health as we age.

Brain shrinkage starts at 40. Brain volume reduces by 5% every decade after the age of 40, and at a much faster rate after 70. Various strategies such as ensuring adequate sleep, minimizing stress, meditation, regular physical activity, engaging in cognitively-stimulating activities and consuming healthy foods can slow down the age-related Brain volume reduction.

Just 6 minutes of high-intensity exercise can dramatically boost your brain’s ability to adapt, learn, and fight depression Short bursts of intense exercise trigger muscles to release lactate, which acts as a chemical messenger, rapidly increasing levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Increased BDNF is essential for neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to form new connections, adapt, and remain resilient in the face of stress and anxiety Beyond enhancing neuroplasticity, higher BDNF levels help your brain stay youthful by promoting neuron growth, improving memory, and protecting against cognitive decline

A run-of-the-mill multivitamin can measurably change how your brain ages In three large randomized controlled trials of older adults (65+), daily Centrum Silver led to about 2 years less brain aging versus placebo Even more striking, episodic memory aging (remembering experiences, people, and events) looked roughly 5 years “younger” in the multivitamin group On top of that, it acts as basic insurance, filling micronutrient gaps that most diets simply don’t cover

How and why do I use the sauna as an endurance athlete? There's some compelling evidence that using post-exercise sauna can enhance improvements in aerobic fitness, plasma volume, and exercise performance in the heat and in temperate conditions. I use it 2-3x per week after my run (or strength training session) for 20-30 minutes. The closer to the end of exercise the better. Oh - it also just feels good for the brain and body. I chatted about my protocol with Dr. Rhonda Patrick on her latest episode where we distill training and nutrition advice from previous experts she's hosted on her podcast.

A 10-minute high-intensity workout can supercharge your brain—immediately Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a crucial growth factor that strengthens neural connections, enhances memory, and supports brain plasticity The more intense your exercise, the greater the surge of BDNF, with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) delivering the most powerful cognitive boost Whether you’re prepping for a big presentation or just want sharper focus, a short burst of vigorous exercise can leave your brain firing on all cylinders

High-intensity exercise is one of the most reliable ways to sharpen your brain on demand When you push past ~80–85% of your max heart rate, your muscles pump out lactate, which shuttles into the brain and acts as both fuel and a powerful signal There, lactate boosts brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), driving neurogenesis, learning, and neuroplasticity in regions like the hippocampus The same lactate surge also raises serotonin and norepinephrine, improving mood, focus, and impulse control

For brain health in older adults, a multivitamin is no longer “optional” - it’s a high-priority basic In three large randomized trials of adults 65+, taking a standard multivitamin like Centrum Silver for one year slowed global brain aging by about 2.1 years and episodic memory aging by almost 5 years That means better retention of everyday experiences, names, faces, and events (the things families actually notice when memory starts to fade) Given how common poor diets and micronutrient gaps are, a single daily multivitamin is an easy, low-effort way to protect aging brains

Did you know your brain has its own growth hormone? BDNF is like fertilizer for your brain cells, boosting learning, memory and mood. Exercise is the fastest way to boost your brain's BDNF levels! Start with: Weight training 2-4x/week HIIT sprints 1-2x/week Daily 30-min walks Listen to your body. Make time for rest too.

Older adults need twice as much protein per meal as younger adults to get the same amount of muscle protein synthesis. That's because muscles become less sensitive to amino acids in response to protein intake, a phenomenon known as anabolic resistance. Most people think this is due to aging, but physical inactivity is the real culprit. People are less active as they get older. Only about 30% of young adults and just 20% of older adults regularly engage in some form of resistance training. Older adults who stay physically active or who engage in resistance exercise right before consuming protein don't experience anabolic resistance. Their anabolic response is identical to that of younger adults. How do I interpret this? If you're older, you might need a higher daily and per-meal protein dose (30–40 grams versus 20–30 grams for someone younger) to maximize muscle protein synthesis and increase or maintain muscle mass. But it also means that staying physically active and strength training often is the key to preventing "age-related" anabolic resistance. It's not inevitable.
