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.

Effects of Aerobic Exercise, Cognitive and Combined Training on Cognition in Physically Inactive Healthy Late-Middle-Aged Adults: The Projecte Moviment Randomized Controlled Trial.

Francesca Roig-Coll, +15 more
- 29 Oct 2020 - 
TL;DR: A 12-week AE program improved Executive Function and Attention-Speed in healthy late-middle-aged adults and adds support to the clinical relevance of even short-term AE as an intervention to enhance cognition and highlight the mediating role of change in S-PA in these benefits.

- 07 Oct 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of baseline cardiovascular risk on cognitive function was investigated in adults with SIVCI by modifying cardiovascular risk factors, and a significant interaction was found between cardiovascular risk group and intervention group (AT or CON) for digit span backward and the Trail Making Test.

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.
