Interesting. 20+ years ago, I always noticed that a set of squats was better than a cup of espresso. The wakefulness lasted longer and the quality of it was better. I wish that I could have a squat rack by my desk all these years. I'm glad that my observation agrees with scientific studies.

Please provide subtitles in the big languages (Chinese, Arabic, Spanish etc) I would like to share this video with my parents and elders, they never trully listen when I give them advice regarding exercise. So it would be better to hear/read this from you.

Well explained.Thank you.

Great channel! Very informative.

Not sure if this is relevant or not but every single time I have a good intense workout (after 1 hour) , when I am by myself, I start to open up emotionally and cry. I think and cry about my loved ones that have passed away, my failed relationships, childhood trauma, issues with my father, etc. Everything I keep inside, deep-down and bottled up, it all releases and comes to the surface when I workout intensely. It is very therapeutic for me. After every workout, I feel more healed, more at peace, and better mentally. Exercise is my form of therapy. Our minds are amazing, I 100% agree that exercise holds many mental health benefits as well.

As a PT for the middle aged population, compound movements as squats ( and resistance training ) have all excelled their health markers both in physical performance outside of the gym walls ,as well as day to day life. But above all, it's the mental cognition that has remained either stable or elevated . I've heard reports of more sharpness at work/school, more alert with quick decision making, better attention skills, etc. Positive lists all around 😀 With that said, no matter the age , squat and remain active 💪😎

In older days in school there was a punishment given for students. It's called ഏത്തമിടീക്കൽ in Malayalam (India). It's like a sqating with your hands clipped to your ears. I think we had an ancient wisdom of exercising brain by ear balance and squating. It's also done when praying Hindu god Ganesha. Also the yoga has Malasana which is a squating position good for your digestion.

I think the squats thing is true. I notice a similar thing when I started squatting more during the day - my mental focus improved.

2:15 What does “3 minutes on, 3 minutes off” mean?

Stand up every half hour for 7 or 8 minutes. Stand, walk, light stretching, touch your toes, stair walk, but get up. It works. Do it all day every day as much as possible and if driving, pull over safely every half hour and stand. It reduces eye strain too, for computer use or driving. Good circulation, good chances for health/immune function and of course, brain function as well. Deadlifts (even with no weight, just going through the motion with good form or very light weight to moderate weight), all good ideas to work into your routine. Squats seem good but I wonder if over time they may be hard on the knees.

Static squats good for all you said but video focused on effect of up/down of stand to squats incl blood flow to brain and rebalancing of it. Later talks about limiting O2. For static squats try holding breath every 10 sec on out breath (no forcing), then breathe in and breathe normally for 10 sec. Repeat 10x (I do on daily walks and around house.) Patrick McKeown/Oxygen Advantage has great videos on this. ✌️ Edit: going up stairs 2 steps at a time great for booty. Trust. Careful of knees.

3 minutes of continuous squats 4-5 times a day!? That’s intense! Unless you go very slow. That’s 500 squats a day at steady pace. Maybe I misunderstood that… I did 100 squats a day for 2 years- that took around 2 minutes a day but was a brutal practice. I’d say 25-50 squats a day for the average person will repeat benefits.

I wonder if many of the cases of supposed or so to speak confirmed instances of ADD and other types of ADHD syndrome, are actually cases of metabolic syndrome (obesity, prediabetes / diabetes, hypertension, poor oxygen / carbondioxide exchange) and malnutrition, and often various degrees of sleep apnea / hypopnea. Sedentary lifestyle and poor overall management. If these metabolic factors - as a consequence of poor lifestyle choices - are not the primary causes of such cognitive malfunctions / imperfections, they surely are contributing. The same goes for a huge array of diseases, ailments and shortened lifespans.
