The facts are undeniable: aerobic exercise programs your mind for peak performance! Inspired by a revolutionary physical education program in Illinois, USA, where 19,000 students who exercised every morning excelled in international physics competitions, Harvard psychiatry professor John J. Ratey presents the impressive results of multi-year research. All converge on the fact that exercise is truly our best defense against depression, attention deficit, addictions, the effects of menopause, and Alzheimer's disease.
How Exercise Boosts Your Life is the first book to thoroughly explore the relationship between exercise and the brain. The research presented by Ratey leaves no room for doubt: exercise reduces stress, lifts mood, improves memory, sharpens thinking, and skyrockets your performance!
This book will change the way you think about morning exercise, and that will change the way you think about everything.
