It is so dynamic and resilient that it only takes 10 minutes of training and activity to boost your brain performance, a Forbes Article by Robert Glatter, MD reported.
The research group studied was reported to have an increase in cognitive performance (including motor control and reaction time) of 14% after only 10 minutes of riding a stationary bike.
