maybe kids get smarter with exercise

Hey kids! 

It may be that you can make yourself smarter by exercising. Scientists have known that exercise maybe good for your brain and now there are signs that what you should do is aerobic exercise.  This means exercise that makes your heart and lungs work harder.  You can feel yourself breathing harder and your heart is beating faster. 

Training for volleyball uses different types of exercise, and a lot of it is aerobic.  You need to build your endurance to play all of those matches. There are a lot of benefits besides being able to think better. You'll feel better and will get stronger and your body is going to look better for it.  Find something that you like and keep doing it.  

Maybe you can bike to school.  You may have to ride fast to get your heart rate up but that can be a lot of fun too.  There are so many other ways.  Daisy Mae and Zula are crazy runners and chasing  them makes your heart beat faster.  

Just find something fun and do it! And don't worry if you're not a kid.  You'll get the same benefits. 

A big goal of the  Green Team project  is getting people more physically active. If you ride your bike rather than take a car you'll be doing yourself and the planet a favor.  The Green Team is all about doing things that are fun, healthy and good for the Earth.  And getting a better looking body while you're at it is pretty awesome.

I have a brother since I was 6 years running with me, now 10 years and is the best in the classroom, so I support the theory that the practice helps them mentally.

Exercise may be good for your brain since it stimulates the blood flow, but not as good as actually using your brain. Didn't see many sport stars saying or doing smart things.
