Physical exercise (PE) affects **brain plasticity**, influencing cognition and wellbeing. (Weinberg and Gould, 2015; Fernandes et al., 2017)2. PE induces structural and functional changes in the brain, leading to biological and psychological benefits.3. PE improves cognitive functioning, including memory abilities, attentional processes, and executive control processes. (Kramer et al., 1999; Colcombe and Kramer, 2003; Grego et al., 2005; Pereira et al., 2007; Winter et al., 2007; Chieffi et al., 2017)4. PE **enhances spatial abilities** and other cognitive domains, such as executive functions. (van Praag et al., 2005; Langdon and Corbett, 2012)5. PE **prevents cognitive decline** associated with aging and reduces the risk of developing dementia. (Yaffe et al., 2009; Colberg et al., 2008; Mandolesi et al., 2017)6. PE improves quality of life and reduces the deterioration of executive functions. (Pedrinolla et al., 2017; Hollamby et al., 2017)7. PE **increases gray matter volume** in frontal and hippocampal regions, leading to improved cognitive functioning. (Colcombe et al., 2006; Erickson et al., 2011)8. PE s**timulates the release of neurotrophic factors,** improves cerebrovascular health, and benefits glucose and lipid metabolism, supporting brain function. (Hötting et al., 2016; Mandolesi et al., 2017)9. PE influences **network topology and functional connectivity** in the brain, enhancing cognitive functions. (Foster, 2015; Huang et al., 2016)10. PE has psychological benefits, including improved psychological wellbeing and quality of life. (Zubala et al., 2017; Penedo and Dahn, 2005)11. PE is associated with **better mood, self-concept, and mental health in youth and adulthood**. (Berger and Motl, 2001; Landers and Arent, 2001)12. PE helps maintain independence, favors social relations, and improves mental health in the aging population. (Stessman et al., 2009)13. Biological mechanisms of the beneficial effects of PE include **increased cerebral blood flow, delivery of oxygen to the brain, reduction in muscle tension,** and increased serum concentrations of endocannabinoid receptors. (Thomas et al., 1989; Dietrich and McDaniel, 2004; Querido and Sheel, 2007; Gomes da Silva et al., 2010; Ferreira-Vieira et al., 2014)14. PE **increases the levels of serotonin and beta-endorphins**, which contribute to improved wellbeing. (Young, 2007; Korb et al., 2010; Fuss et al., 2015)
