TLDR
It is suggested that women's executive processes may benefit more from exercise than men, and aerobic training led to greater benefits than resistance training in global cognitive function and executive functions, while multimodal combinedTraining led togreat benefits than aerobic training for global Cognitive function, episodic memory, and word fluency.

Estrogen-dependent hippocampal wiring as a risk factor for age-related dementia in women.

Giulia Torromino, +2 more
- 01 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: To explain why women rely less on hippocampus-dependent strategies, a "computational hypothesis" is proposed that the direct effects of estrogens on hippocampal synaptic and structural plasticity during the estrous-cycle confers instability to the memory-dependent hippocampal network.

Acute aerobic exercise improves memory across intensity and fitness levels.

Krystle E. Zuniga, +3 more
- 28 May 2019 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exercise can improve recall at both light and high intensities, and that the benefit can be obtained by individuals regardless of their fitness level.

Effects and Mechanisms of Cognitive, Aerobic Exercise, and Combined Training on Cognition, Health, and Brain Outcomes in Physically Inactive Older Adults: The Projecte Moviment Protocol

Alba Castells-Sánchez, +27 more
- 14 Aug 2019 - 
TL;DR: Projecte Moviment as mentioned in this paper is a multi-domain randomized trial examining the effect of these interventions applied 5 days per week for 3 months compared to a passive control group, where 140 healthy physically inactive older adults will be randomly assigned to computerized cognitive training (CCT), aerobic exercise (AE), combined training (COMB), or a control group.

Exercise training increases size of hippocampus and improves memory

Kirk I. Erickson, +17 more
- 15 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that aerobic exercise training increases the size of the anterior hippocampus, leading to improvements in spatial memory, and that increased hippocampal volume is associated with greater serum levels of BDNF, a mediator of neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus.
