Vigorous exercise causes muscles to produce lactate - which crosses the blood-brain barrier and is a messenger for the brain to produce neurotrophic factors like BDNF.
BDNF is like a youth elixir for the brain and the signal that activates it is lactate from high-intensity exercise.
If you want to bathe your brain in BDNF - vigorous-intensity exercise is one of the best ways to do it.

The Palos Verdes fault zone previously was thought to be a segmented network of smaller faults, but a new study suggests it’s a system of interconnected, closely spaced planar fractures from the Santa Monica Bay to Dana Point, capable of a M7.8 earthquake: https://t.co/8boVEQGCTC
This algorithm can reconstruct an audio by analyzing minute vibrations of objects depicted in a video. In this experiment, intelligible speech was recovered from the vibrations of a potato-chip bag photographed from 15 feet away through soundproof glass https://t.co/oPf4GVchfg
What looks like an awful dispute between neighbors underwater is actually a behavior that many fish show, especially gobies. They dig burrows, sift sand and they're territorial. So, this.
