Abstract

There are numerous widely accepted short-term and longitudinal benefits of exercise. Established health benefits include the prevention of several diseases and illnesses, lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and certain kinds of cancers (Clague and Bernstein, 2012; Chapman et al., 2013). Exercise also positively impacts mental health by reducing likelihoods of developing depression and anxiety, and generally improving overall quality of life. These positive effects of exercise make it a rich, constructive area of study in the fields of psychology and neuroscience (Mandolesi et. al., 2018).
