people in their 60s, 70s, and early 80s who did my program, and we coached them for 12 weeks to improve components of brain health.

improved their cognitive functions.

They all did better in objective, computer-based cognitive test results, cognitive testing, and they increased the size of the canvas between 1% to 3%.

Incredible.

I think the most important component of exercise should be fun.

You should do exercises that you enjoy doing because that will make you keep doing it.

For example, I love cycling.

I love tennis.

I love skiing.

And I don't do those things because I know they're good for me.

I do them because I love them.

So I think people should do what they enjoy doing, whether it's rowing, taking classes in gyms, or swimming, or whatever else they enjoy, as long as you get to a point of huffing and puffing.

I think gentle walking is good.

Anything is better than nothing.

So people who don't exercise at all and start walking 10 minutes a day can see improvements in their brain functions, even 10 minutes of walking.

Of course, if you walk 45 minutes and it's a brisk walk, it's even better.

If you walk one hour, great.

If you go for a hiking trip with your friends for two hours, even better.

So the bottom line is this.

Do it.
