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.

Examining the relationships among adolescent health behaviours, prefrontal function, and academic achievement using fNIRS.

Mia Papasideris, +4 more
- 01 Jul 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the association between lifestyle behaviours and academic performance in a sample of adolescents, and examined the extent to which activity within the prefrontal cortex and behavioural indices of inhibition may mediate this relationship.

Non-Modifiable Factors as Moderators of the Relationship Between Physical Activity and Brain Volume: A Cross-Sectional UK Biobank Study

Qatar
- 02 Aug 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the relationship between objectively-measured physical activity and brain volume was examined and whether this relationship is moderated by age, sex, or a priori candidate genetic factors, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Val66Met, or apolipoprotein (APOE) ǫ4 allele carriage.

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.
