We address two aims: Aim 1 (Fitness Review) compares the effect of higher
cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF)(eg, endurance athletes) with lower CRF (eg, sedentary …

Aerobic and resistance exercise (acute and chronic) independently and collectively induce
beneficial responses in the brain that may influence memory function, including an increase …

The global population is aging at an unprecedented rate giving rise to a greater prevalence
of age-related illnesses such as dementia and vascular disease. Dementia affects …

There is a positive association between cardiorespiratory fitness and cognitive health, but
the interaction between cardiorespiratory fitness and aging on cerebral hemodynamics is …

The aim of this systematic review was to examine the effects of physical exercise training on
cerebral blood flow (CBF), which is a physiological marker of cerebrovascular function …

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) and arterial transit time (ATT), markers of brain vascular health,
worsen with age. The primary aim of this cross-sectional study was to identify modifiable …

In order to determine the impact of a four-week cycle of Nordic Walking (NW) training on the
physical fitness of people with chronic non-specific lower back pain and the impact of this …

Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) to a physiological stimulus is a commonly used surrogate
of cerebrovascular health. Cross-sectional studies using blood oxygen level dependent …

The brain's low resistance ensures a robust blood flow throughout systole and diastole and
is susceptible to flow pulsatility. Increased cerebral pulsatility contributes to the progression …

As the older population grows, there is an increasing interest in understanding how physical
exercise can counteract the changes seen with aging. The benefits of exercise to general …
