Benefits for mental health, too
Fitness at a young age is already a prevention of neurodegenerative diseases - those caused by the death of nerve cells; this often occurs in the process of age-related changes. Improving memory, increasing attention and control - scientists have found that these and other aspects of the "operational" activity of the brain can be supported through fitness among other things, given that physical activity is the creation of new neural connections, the enrichment of brain tissue with oxygen and not only. Being active also helps with severe mental conditions, such as depression.
