Exercise is great for the brain, but recent advances in the neurosciences have clearly shown that some types of movement – such as dual-task exercises - are more effective than others for improving cognitive performance. This understanding has given rise to innovative technologies that can effectively challenge specific brain functions while simultaneously improving balance, agility, strength and endurance (aka, dual-tasking). In this session, we will explain dual-task exercise and why it is one of the most effective ways to train the brain for maximal performance. We will also introduce some of the best dual-tasking technologies available that can be easily utilized in fitness facilities of all types.
