[1] Physical activity encompasses all activities, at any intensity, performed during any time of day or night. [2] It includes both voluntary exercise and incidental activity integrated into the daily routine. [3]

Choose types of physical activity that are appropriate for their current fitness level and health goals, because some activities are safer than others.
[50] [54] [55] Physical activity is associated with increased levels of IGF-1 in blood serum, which is known to contribute to neuroplasticity in the brain due to its capacity to cross the blood–brain barrier and blood–cerebrospinal fluid barrier; [5] [50] [53] [54] consequently, one review noted that IGF-1 is a key mediator of exercise ...
