(1)With 100 support, we divided it into two groups
(2)First, one group was asked to walk fast for 40 minutes three times a week
(3)Other groups were asked to stretch for 40 minutes three times a week
(4)It lasted for 12 months
(5)I measured the size of the hippocampus before and after the experiment
(6)What was the result of the experiment
(7)Looking at the group that did stretching
(8)The seahorse has shrunk by 14 in a year It’s reduced in size
(9)It was expected because it gets smaller by 1 every year
(10)But what was really interesting was the walking group
(11)This group did not decrease in hippocampus size, but rather increased by 2 sizes
(12)I’m a year older, but I’m two years younger
(13)The yellow part is the seahorse
(14)The red line indicates a stretching group, with the hippocampus constricted
(15)The blue line indicates a walking group, and you can see that the hippocampus is enlarged
(16)Both the left and right brains have the same reaction
(17)10,000 years ago, we lived like this
(18)We were hunters and gatherers in Savannah
(19)He was constantly moving, constantly seeking food
(20)I didn’t settle in one place
(21)He didn’t even farm to get food for his life
(22)Then, 10,000 years ago, I started farming
(23)Industrialization was achieved only 200 years ago
(24)And in just 20 or 30 years, we’re building a digital society
(25)If you think about human history 24 hours a day, it’s easier to understand
(26)That way, humans lived as gatherers from 00:00 to 23:40
(27)From 23:40 to 23:59:40, I was a farmer
(28)Because industrialization took place first, digital society is a big part of the world
(29)I woke up at 123:59:59
(30)You can think of it as a second that a digital society was built
(31)Then I can ask you a question
(32)Why does exercising make you feel good
(33)Our ancestors didn’t run to run a marathon
(34)Our ancestors ran to hunt for food or to avoid predators
(35)I ran to go to a new land where I could settle down
(36)All of this meant increased chances of survival
(37)● The brain “thinks we are literature running for our time, so our brains don’t know if we’re going to be able to survive
(38)When
(39)It compensates us by releasing more dopamine that gives us a pleasant feeling
(40)The brain thinks that when we’re running, we’re actually running for survival
(41)The reason why my memory is improving is because
(42)Our ancestors hunted, discovered the New World, and ran
(43)You go to a new environment and see and experience new things while hunting
(44)New information keeps coming in
(45)The brain improves memory to store it
(46)If we’re staying in one place
(47)Our brains think that nothing new is happening
(48)I often get asked what exercise means to you
(49)Here’s what I think.
(50)We’re just going to take a step back from our advanced lifestyle
(51)You don’t have to think about sports
(52)Exercise is much more fundamental
(53)It’s a way to optimize the body, and at the same time, it’s a way to optimize our brains
