But what few people know is that exercise is also good for your brain! We have highlighted a number of positive effects that are particularly applicable in the workplace.

Higher productivity

The long days at the office or remote workstation do not exactly improve the creative mind. So go out into the fresh air and work out or run for half an hour or take a nice walk. Moving around stimulates “out-of-the-box” thinking. In addition, it increases your ability to interpret and think more creatively. A real boost for your creativity!

Your ability to concentrate increases

Moving ensures better focus and concentration. A study with school children, who received half an hour of sports classes in the middle of the day, shows that the children were much less distracted after sports. They had a better focus and were even able to multitask. So it’s handy to do a workout in the morning because you will notice that it does your concentration well.

A greater learning capacity

The hippocampus is the part of your brain where the memory and ability to learn are located. This part of the brain grows when you exercise regularly, which results in a positive effect on your brain.

You’ll be sharp longer

Regular exercise protects your mental condition and ensures that you keep your cognitive ability better. Because you move more, you ensure that your brain becomes more resilient and can be active for longer. This gives you the effect of being sharp for longer and getting through your day better.

It reduces stress

The fastest acting anti-stress hormone is endorphins and your body creates exactly this during exercise. Besides intensive sports, you can also work on mindfulness by taking a yoga class. Controlled breathing and movement have a stress-reducing effect.
