Resistance Training Neurological Benefits

Meaning

Resistance training neurological benefits refer to the specific, measurable positive effects that strength-building exercise has on the central and peripheral nervous systems, independent of its musculoskeletal effects. These benefits include enhanced cognitive function, improved motor control, increased neurotrophic factor expression, and reduced risk of age-related cognitive decline. This modality is now recognized as a potent, systemic intervention for brain health.
