This month I’ve been talking a lot about your muscles … and how strength training is great for your bones, metabolism, heart, stress level, confidence, and so much more.

 

But check this out!  Your BRAIN benefits from regular training too.

 

The fact is, your brain can absolutely learn and grow as you get older – but you have to train it to maintain its “plasticity.”

 

The best way to do it?

 

DO SOMETHING NEW and DIFFERENT.

 

Experts say there are 3 guidelines for training to improve brain plasticity:

 

3 Guidelines for Training Brain Plasticity
  • Do challenging activities
Choose things that are out of your comfort zone and give your brain the chance to learn something new and improve.
  • Make sure they are complex enough
Your brain will jump into creative and problem-solving mode more easily when it's often exposed to more complex activities.
  • Choose activities that take some practice!
The goal isn’t to be perfect – instead, it’s about working towards gradual improvement.

 

For example, you might learn how to strength train, sign up for a beginner tennis class, learn to paddle a dragon boat, or make it a point to learn and make a new healthy recipe every week!

 

 

Make it an amazing day,
