Summary
This study looked at how different exercise levels (low, moderate, high) affect brain chemicals like BDNF and thinking skills in 12 healthy young adults aged 18-25. Participants did four sessions: high-intensity intervals, moderate or low continuous exercise, or rest. The goal was to understand the link between exercise intensity, brain chemicals, and mental performance, not to treat any disease.
