Why your brain needs exercise, Scientific American, January 2020 page 28

 

" Cognitively challenging exercise may benefit the brain more than physical
activity that makes fewer cognitive demands"

 

So that is why youngsters ask me why I am as good as them although I am 80
years old. I tell them I exercise doing conservation work in the woods.
There are cognitive demands in climbing over logs and down holes. Deciding
where to cut, pull, and spray etc.
