Exercise Makes You Smarter – This Is Why (animated)
Exercise Makes You Smarter – This Is Why (animated)
Back when I was in still in school there was this stereotype going around.
Kids who were nerdy and never did any kind of sports were considered the most intelligent and bright.
The jocks who were sporty and fit, were often branded as simple-minded and empty-headed.
So by following this stereotype you had two groups: Smart and weak. Dumb and fit.
However in the recent years, there’s a new stereotype that’s gained popularity: A smart jock.
An individual who is both intellectually gifted and is physically fit.
Did they win the genetic lottery or is it possible that exercise could make you smarter?
Today we’ll look at the body-brain connection and how moving our body can benefit the brain.
Some of the studies mentioned in the video:

Neuroplasticity is key!
A defect of this video is mention of evolution fairy tale…no need of faulty theory…
i like how you portray asian students
I love this!
Thanks
Jesus is the answer. Matthew 6:9-14, Isaiah 53:5, Psalm 91
So it doesn’t make you smarter, unless you learn or study something after it. 🙂
It also helps on productivity, focus, and motivation. When I work out in the morning, my work day is more productive and successful. 🙂
Anyone book suggestions? Thanks
Let me remain dumb then 😂😂😂 if my 35 years of living i have been dumb
Then athletes at my school must be geniuses then. Gotta befriend them, brb.
But why aren’t all the greatest scientists (Albert Einstein, Nichola Tesla, Sir Isaac Newton, etc.) were not found working out to be smarter?
I’m a nerd but I’m also fit af.
Thanks a lot for sharing this inspiring and useful info😍❤. Loved the Naperville School Example !!!
Thank you for sharing…
it’s connected with neuroplasticity
general facts are right, but the explanation for why it happens is not. it’s nice to educate others on different topics but first you should make sure that none of your words are wrong
how about boxing?
It is not exact science but cardio or any form if exercise can boost your mood and fills you with a positive energy, now thats really a good start to do anything be it learning or cooking
I remember back in high school, my best friend who was the ace of the volleyball team was one of the smartest people at my school.
My smart classmates got lucky. I didn’t know this when I was a kid.
Thanks, this helps so much🥺
I love your vidoes; they are very motivating. But i just need to point out that the image of Asian you put there is so damn racist
Imagine a mega boomer.
Now imagine the opposite.
That would be you.
Exercising also makes you sleep better which improves everything else

Very useful information, thank you so much❤️❤️❤️💪💪
Thanks.
thank you
Great!
Seems like you are always reaching out to some kind of modern norm in society.
How much would simply hiking a few miles most days be reasonably adequate for the brain and the whole body?
All of this passion with today’s norm of coming up to par regarding the "rat race / dog eat dog" competition to have a really large bank balance – is this reasonable?
Passion, Passion, Passion °°°°°°°°°
Competition in Academics is a "conform to the norm" to a great extent.
The urban sprawl and suburban sprawl all starts to necessitate tremendous concentration upon specialization which has its advantages & disadvantages.
People can become very expert regarding their specialization, but what about preparedness?
Thank you
Good advices.
high intensity aerobics, you got it boss
Very interesting topic, I will try impellent some advice to me life.
I am 51 years old and I am doing workout till 3 hours, although I am a music teacher. I doing 3000 jumping rope.
مرام
It could be the reason why ideas come up after a pleasant, leisurely walk or fascinating activities such as after spending considerable time in one’s hobby.
I like your video, but unfortunately, there is no such thing as evolution (around 11:.26) If you cross out the part your video will make sense. Thank you. You always do a brilliant job. I like it very much.
Why no more videos? Please upload more videos.
there is an update about squats and neurons relationship, how neurons perform way better by having squats sessions regularly
10:20 that comparison seems manipualtive when all the other countries are averaged out between all schools.
Velcro shoes r good too….. Atleast for people like me who don’t know how to tie the laces!
10:04, asian stereotype caricature haha
Please make more videos…
Also exercise everyday makes you have a good sleep at night.
I just got done eating after hitting the gym. Feed and walked the dog. I feel ready for the day and energize. Thank you for this lesson. Chao!
It’s maths, not "math"
Your video ia a great thought process ….thanks for sharing
Thank’s for (great information💡)👍
Imagine learning this as a kid. And growing smart with a body of bradpit. u will dominate college in every aspect
"however once safely attached , the sea squirt simply digests its own brain for extra energy" damn it! why did i let myself get so hungry
My friend is a gym freak but not good in studies. Why so?
