Exercise for health benefits are undeniable. If done regularly , exercise can prevent the arrival denegeratif diseases . In addition, exercise also proved useful in improving your child 's academic achievement in school .
A new study from the UK found that moderate to vigorous exercise is done every day can improve academic achievement in school . The higher the exercise intensity , the greater the impact , especially for subjects of language, mathematics , and science . Nonetheless , researchers still have not been able to demonstrate the relationship between the two.
" Many suspected that describes the relationship, such as physical activity increased their time in the classroom or the impact on their confidence , " said study researcher Josephine Booth , lecturer at the University of Dundee , Skonlandia .
According to Booth , there may be a biological explanation related to it . Other studies , he said , had found a lack of physical activity can have a negative impact on the structure and function of the brain , so the effect on intellectual performance .
The study, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine that analyzed data from nearly 5,000 students . The researchers measured the duration and intensity of physical activity daily for three to seven days when the students are 11 years old . They also pair participants with a tool such as a belt that can measure the activity undertaken .
As a result, students who do the most physical activity had better performance in three subjects , namely language , math , and science . Interestingly , the relationship was discovered a few years later , when they were aged 13 , 15 , and 16 .
In this study , the researchers also took into account other factors that could affect the interpretation of the academic , such as economic status , birth weight , maternal age , and maternal smoking habits during pregnancy . However it turns out , the relationship is still valid .
According to Booth , these findings have important implications for education policy . In particular, pay special attention to physical activity as a way to improve the academic performance of the students .
