While it might seem like working out drains energy and would make self-control harder, the reality is that the increased blood and oxygen flow to the pre-frontal cortex resulting from spurts of exercise may actually increase self-control. The studies show many positive effects of physical exercise on inhibition/interference control, which, as important components of our day to day lives, means that you could have even more motivation to get to the gym.
We’ve also got interesting news on whether it’s okay to exercise before going to sleep and whether it’s bad for you to exercise in the rain, along with some cool nutrition app suggestions for National Nutrition month. On top of all that, we’ve got an article on 20 indoor workouts you should give a try during these winter-spring months when the weather might not cooperate with an outdoor routine.
Please Note: The articles and videos listed below are informative, popular, newsworthy, or a combination of all three. Just because we have included an article within FitLinks does not necessarily mean that BuiltLean supports, or agrees with its contents or views.
