The brain is broadly and unequivocally affected by physical activity. Despite existing gaps in the literature, we have the opportunity to improve brain health in older adults through evidence-based practice. This course will describe realistic and meaningful strategies for promoting the adoption of lifestyle behaviors in older adults, ultimately aimed at maintaining and improve aspects of brain health across the lifespan.
