Hello, I would like to share the experience I have got during 2 weeks volunteering on one of our local schools in my first report.  Not only important for students but for others too. We must understand why we should exercise regularly and how this influence our brains experts recommend 2 hours of sweaty exercise per day for the young brain.  

According to Dr. John Medina, author of Brain Rules, "The three requirements for human life are food, drink and oxygen.  But their effects on survival have very different time lines.  You can live for about 30 days without food, about 7 days without water.  Your brain however, is so active that it cannot go without oxygen for more than 5 minutes without risking serious and permanent damage."  

He goes on to say, "Exercise does not provide oxygen and food.  It provides greater access to oxygen and food via stimulated blood vessels...that penetrate deeper into the tissues of the body.  The more you exercise, the more tissues you can feed and the more toxic waste you can remove.  That's why exercise improves the performance of all functions."

We should know the benefit of exercise it actually makes us smarter.  If you spend time with colleagues, incorporate energizing brain breaks into your activities so you can see and feel how oxygenated blood flow helps you to concentrate and learn more.
