What Can Exercise Do To Your Brain? (Infograph)

Exercise has many benefits for your brain—here are 6!

Laura Lurns Last updated March 5, 2025

Exercise has many benefits to the brain as well as overall body health. You can achieve these benefits in as little as 20 minutes a day. These changes can be attributed to chemical changes in the brain caused by physical activity. Just one session of exercise can improve the brain’s ability to retain physical skills by enhancing your brain’s “muscle memory”. Exercise can also improve long term memory too. One session can improve long term memory by 10%! You can reduce the risk of depression thru exercise as well. Physical activity also has shown to cause the brain’s white matter to become more fibrous and compact. This allows your brain to think faster and more efficient. Research has shown that activities like walking can increase creativity. Another benefit of exercise is good cardiovascular health, which also contributes to healthy brain functions. One would conclude that there is no reason to wait; get up and get moving today!

Is your child struggling in school?

Get your free personalized learning roadmap

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.

  • Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
  • Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
  • You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly

Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.

Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.

Get my free assessment & 7-day trial Cancel anytime during your trial.

Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.

A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
