A new study indicates that HIIT may help delay or even reverse age-related declines in memory and learning.
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

high intensity interval training is probably the only thing that can move the needle in terms of certain aspects of cognitive function and people with the apoe4 variant
The best way to improve fitness? Exercise, particularly high-intensity interval training or HIIT. We know it’s good for the body, and accumulating evidence suggests that it’s indispensable for brain health too.
The unique BDNF benefits of HIIT
However, I'm increasingly convinced when it comes to intensity of exercise, there may be very unique benefits on the brain, and that is where I think, you know, high-intensity interval training or any type of high-intensity training has a special role.
exercise intensity like high-intensity interval training has been shown to have unique benefits for brain health um obviously all types of exercise are beneficial for the brain but high intensity exercise may have additional neuroprotective and cognitive benefits
how it improves brain Drive neurotropic Factor
so I really do think there's like nothing like hit to to improve brain health and obviously long-term brain health through exercise training but just to use it acutely as well just as like this kind of stimulant almost right
