Physical activity is one of the modifiable factors of cognitive decline and dementia with the
strongest evidence. Although many influential reviews have illustrated the neurobiological …

Background The holistic concept of physical literacy assumes that individuals require
adequate cognitive (knowledge and understanding), affective (motivation and confidence) …

Objective To determine the effects of low-vs. high-intensity aerobic and resistance training
on motor and cognitive function, brain activation, brain structure, and neurochemical …

Physical exercise may improve cognitive function by modulating molecular and cellular
mechanisms within the brain. We propose that the facilitation of long-term synaptic …

Repetitive, monotonic, and effortful voluntary muscle contractions performed for just a few
weeks, ie, resistance training, can substantially increase maximal voluntary force in the …

Evidence continues to accumulate that acute aerobic exercise (AAE) impacts
neurophysiological excitability as measured by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Yet …

Exercise is a promising, cost-effective intervention to augment successful aging and
neurorehabilitation. Decline of gray and white matter accompanies physiological aging and …

Healthy aging is associated with changes in motor sequence learning, with some studies
indicating decline in motor skill learning in older age. Acute cardiorespiratory exercise has …

We revisit an agenda that was outlined in a previous paper in this journal focusing on the
importance of skill acquisition research in enhancing practice and instruction in sport. In this …

There is limited research on optimal exercise programs that effectively decrease falls and fall-
related injuries in older populations. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed to explore …
