Four Weeks for a Healthier Brain: Resistance Training Can Prevent or Delay Alzheimer’s Disease

Brain Enhancement Healing Concept

One study has found that regular endurance exercise can prevent or delay the onset of Alzheimer’s disease symptoms. In experiments with transgenic mice, it was found that resistance training decreased the formation of beta-amyloid plaques and normalized levels of corticosterone, the stress hormone associated with Alzheimer’s. Researchers believe that the anti-inflammatory effect of resistance training … Read more

Resistance Training: A Valuable Ally Against Alzheimer’s Disease – Neuroscience News

It shows an older man lifting weights.

Summary: Regular physical exercise, especially resistance training, can delay the onset of Alzheimer’s disease. Using a mouse model, the team showed reductions in Alzheimer’s indicators, such as beta-amyloid plaques, and normalized stress hormone levels, after resistance training training. Resistance training not only offers physical benefits, it also appears to reduce Alzheimer’s-related behavioral problems. This study … Read more
