How to Get Smarter this Weekend

Scenario: We’re all on a mission to be the smartest people in the world. That means we have to stop playing basketball. We can’t run any more 5Ks, play football on Sundays, or go for those fun bike rides. We can’t do anything else but read, study and work!

Conventional wisdom thinks so.

Stereotypical nerds and jocks are worlds apart, aren’t they?

Those smart nerds do something shocking.

When you study the smartest people in the world: the Nobel Prize winners, the Pulitzers’, the Fields Medals’, the Rhodes Scholars, you’ll see that most make physical activity one of their top priorities.

Why?

It’s because exercising makes you smarter.

Exercising helps build your brain cells, making you one smart person. Says Psyched for Success’s Layla Merritt:

Physical activity is as much a workout for your brain as for your body. Exercise actually stimulates growth in brain cells.

Schoolchildren who exercise three or four times a week get higher than average exam scores.

Senior citizens who walk regularly perform better on memory tests than their sedentary peers. In fact, as they age, walkers show far less cognitive decline than that of non-walkers.

And that’s backed by University of San Francisco’s Christin Anderson MS, who says that when you exercise, “you can think more clearly, perform better, and your morale is better. This is pure science — stimulate your nervous system and function at a higher level.”

A side benefit of exercise?

It makes you happier. Says Harvard’s John Ratley MD, exercise “affects mood, vitality, alertness, and feelings of well-being.”

So when you’re just lounging around this weekend, remind yourself:

When I exercise, I become smarter. And, happier.

Ding. Ding. Ding.

We'll light that fire!

We all need someone to tell us like it is. To help us cut through those excuses. To inspire you to be the person you want to be. We’ll ignite that flame alright!

Find out how!

supermanLife is a show

Every interaction is a chance to make an impression.

What kind of impression do you want to leave?

What kind of show do you want to put on for people?
