Intelligent Exercises

In this episode, Michael reveals the best exercises you can do –
to help your heart and your brain. He now does press ups every
morning – having discovered research that shows being able to do
10 could help you live longer, and doing 40 nearly doubles your
protection against heart disease. But strength exercises can do
more than just improve your muscle tone and heart. Michael speaks
to Professor Damian Bailey at University of South Wales who’s
been researching the effects of exercise on your brain. He’s
discovered that one of the best exercises you can do to boost
your brain power is the simple squat. Michael discovers how many
and how long you need to do them for to get the best benefit –
and it’s surprisingly little!
