"Enhancing Brain Function through Groove Rhythm in Exercise"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Neuroscience News
Combining aerobic exercise with groove rhythm (GR) music can enhance executive function in the brain, according to a study conducted with 48 healthy participants. Exercising to GR not only increased enjoyment but also activated the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) more than standard exercise. Participants who felt their bodies resonate with the GR experienced an elevated sense of excitement and demonstrated improved attention, concentration, and judgment. This research suggests that GR-enhanced exercise could offer a more enjoyable and cognitively beneficial approach to fitness, particularly in countries with low exercise rates like Japan.
