Summary: New research reveals that the cognitive boost from moderate to vigorous exercise lasts up to the next day, enhancing memory performance in adults aged 50 to 83. The study also found that adequate sleep—particularly deep, slow-wave sleep—adds to these benefits.
Conversely, prolonged sedentary time was linked to poorer working memory the following day. These findings highlight the importance of daily physical activity and quality sleep for maintaining cognitive health, especially in older adults.
