“…The effect of motor skill interventions on cognitive and executive functioning is limited, but emerging findings are also positive [113][114][115]. Examining whether improved cognition and executive function outcomes in children result from both persistent PA (i.e., due to the act of PA) as well as cognitive neural development associated with various types of context-specific motor development warrants further attention [116][117][118]. In addition, if the strength of associations between MC and HRF, weight status, and PA increase across time, would the associations between MC and cognitive factors also increase across developmental time?…”

Motor Competence and its Effect on Positive Developmental Trajectories of Health

In 2008, Stodden and colleagues took a unique developmental approach toward addressing the potential role of motor competence in promoting positive or negative trajectories of physical activity, health-related fitness, and weight status. The conceptual model proposed synergistic relationships among physical activity, motor competence, perceived motor competence, health-related physical fitness, and obesity with associations hypothesized to strengthen over time. At the time the model was proposed, limited evidence was available to support or refute the model hypotheses. Over the past 6 years, the number of investigations exploring these relationships has increased significantly. Thus, it is an appropriate time to examine published data that directly or indirectly relate to specific pathways noted in the conceptual model. Evidence indicates that motor competence is positively associated with perceived competence and multiple aspects of health (i.e., physical activity, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, muscular endurance, and a healthy weight status). However, questions related to the increased strength of associations across time and antecedent/consequent mechanisms remain. An individual's physical and psychological development is a complex and multifaceted process that synergistically evolves across time. Understanding the most salient factors that influence health and well-being and how relationships among these factors change across time is a critical need for future research in this area. This knowledge could aid in addressing the declining levels of physical activity and fitness along with the increasing rates of obesity across childhood and adolescence.

“…11 In young males, high-intensity cycling has been associated with better acquisition and retention 7 days later on the visuomotor tracking task. 12 Further, in aging human adults, those that participated in leisure time physical activity at midlife had 60% lower odds of developing Alzheimer's disease compared to their sedentary counterparts. 13 Moreover, a 16-week exercise intervention (treadmill, 30 min, twice a week and moderate intensity of 60% VO 2 max) aids in cognitive functioning of elderly adults suffering from mild dementia.…”

“…Growing evidence suggests that even a single exercise session improves motor function in healthy adults (Mang et al 2014;Skriver et al 2014) and in people with stroke (Ploughman et al 2008), although mechanisms underlying this facilitation remain unclear. For example, the proposed association between behavior and changes in circulating neurotrophins has been inconclusive (Skriver et al 2014;Mang et al 2014). An important intermediary may involve acute changes in regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) to guide substrate delivery and contribute to neurological and functional gains.…”

Exercise intensity modulates the change in cerebral blood flow following aerobic exercise in chronic stroke

The mechanisms supporting functional improvement by aerobic exercise following stroke remain incompletely understood. This study investigated how cycling intensity and aerobic fitness influence cerebral blood flow (CBF) following a single exercise session. Thirteen community-living stroke survivors performed 20 min of semi-recumbent cycling at low and moderate intensities (40-50 and 60-70 % of heart rate reserve, respectively) as determined from an exercise stress test. CBF was quantified by arterial spin labeling MRI at baseline, as well as 30 and 50 min post-exercise. An intensity-dependent effect was observed in the right post-central and supramarginal gyri up to 50 min after exercise (uncorrected p < 0.005, cluster size ≥10). Regional CBF was increased 18 ± 17 % and reduced 8 ± 12 % following moderate- and low-intensity cycling, respectively. In contrast, CBF changes were similar between sessions in the right lentiform nucleus and mid-frontal gyrus, as well as the left temporal and parietal gyri. Aerobic fitness was directly related to posterior cingulate and thalamic CBF, and inversely related to precuneal CBF at rest (R (2) ≥ 0.75); however, no relationship between fitness and the post-exercise change in CBF was observed. Divergent changes in regional CBF were observed in the right parietal cortex following low- and moderate-intensity exercise, which suggests that intensity of prescribed exercise may be useful in optimizing rehabilitation.
