Exercise Leads to Improved Concentration

Doctor Karen Postal has conducted research on the cognitive benefits of exercise. Her results show that exercise, especially aerobic activity, directly improves concentration and focus. According to Doctor Postal, “following a half-hour of strenuous exercise, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex works harder to resist distracters and performance on tests of attention improves.” Regular exercise is incredibly beneficial for students to improve their productivity in their studies and increase their memory and attention span.
