Stanley J. Colcombe,Kirk I. Erickson,Paige E. Scalf,Jenny S. Kim,Ruchika Shaurya Prakash,Edward McAuley,Steriani Elavsky,David X. Marquez,Liang Hu,Arthur F. Kramer +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that cardiovascular fitness is associated with the sparing of brain tissue in aging humans, and suggest a strong biological basis for the role of aerobic fitness in maintaining and enhancing central nervous system health and cognitive functioning in older adults.
Exercise: An Active Route to Healthy Aging Aerobic Exercise Training Increases Brain Volume in Aging Humans

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined whether aerobic fitness training of older humans can increase brain volume in regions associated with age-related decline in both brain structure and cognition, and found significant increases in brain volume, in both gray and white matter regions, were found as a function of fitness training for the older adults who participated in the aerobic fitness intervention, but not for those who participated on the stretching and toning (nonaerobic) control group.
