This paper reviews RCTs on exercise's cognitive effects, finding small benefits that diminish with bias correction and methodological issues.

This study examines brain oscillatory activity during acute aerobic exercise and finds increased power across frequencies and specific changes in theta, alpha, and beta power during moderate-to-high intensity cycling.

This study examines how acute physical exercise affects brain oscillatory activity and inhibitory control in young adults, finding increased oscillatory activity during exercise that dissipates quickly, with no impact on inhibitory control.

This study compares neural responses to heartbeats between physically trained and sedentary young adults, finding differences in pre-stimulus processing that correlate with behavioral performance in the trained group.
