Not only the body but the brain
From physical exercise can gain.
Gray matter can linger longer;
Synapses can get stronger
And attention more slowly wane.
It's the AARP who says
It helps in numerous ways.
Even if you're past your prime,
Exercise is worth the time
And big dividends it pays.
The last paragraph of a short article posted on a bulletin board in the Altavista YMCA Fitness Center:
"According to previous studies and the AARP, exercise can help the brain in a number of ways, including improving concentration and attention, reducing gray-matter loss, promoting neurogenesis, enhancing blood flow and strengthening synapses."
