“…Domain specific improvements in cognitive function have been reported, and much focus has been placed on exercise‐induced improvements in executive functions (Etnier & Chang, ). The majority of the evidence generated to date is based on moderate‐intensity exercise, in studies spanning various age groups (Donnelly et al, ; Gomes‐Osman et al, ; Nanda, Balde, & Manjunatha, ; Peruyero, Zapata, Pastor, & Cervelló, ). It is worth noting however that certain populations, such as sedentary individuals, older adults or those with a disability or within rehabilitation may not be capable of exercising at higher exercise intensities (Franco et al, ; Pinto, Newman, & Hirsch, ), and therefore, it is important to explore the effects of exercise performed at lower intensities.…”

Single bouts of aerobic exercise can modulate cortical excitability and executive cognitive function, but less is known about the effect of light-intensity exercise, an intensity of exercise more achievable for certain clinical populations. Fourteen healthy adults (aged 22 to 30) completed the following study procedures twice (≥7 days apart) before and after 30 min of either light aerobic exercise (cycling) or seated rest: neurocognitive battery (multitasking performance, inhibitory control and spatial working memory), paired-pulse TMS measures of cortical excitability. Significant improvements in response times during multitasking performance and increases in intracortical facilitation (ICF) were seen following light aerobic exercise. Light aerobic exercise can modulate cortical excitability and some executive function tasks.Populations with deficits in multitasking ability may benefit from this intervention.

“…Although studies have consistently shown that the intensity of acute PA needs to be of at least moderate to vigorous intensity to gain most cognitive benefits (McMorris and Hale, 2012 ; Peruyero et al, 2017 ), the optimal duration of acute PA is still unclear and needs further investigation (Janssen et al, 2014b ; Verburgh et al, 2014 ; Donnelly et al, 2016 ). Previous studies have shown that acute exercise bouts with a duration of 30 or more minutes can improve children's and adolescent's performance in inhibition and shifting (Ellemberg and St-Louis-Deschênes, 2010 ; Chen et al, 2014 ), working memory (Pontifex et al, 2009 ; Chen et al, 2014 ), selective attention (Gallotta et al, 2012 ), free-recall memory (Pesce et al, 2009 ), planning (Pirrie and Lodewyk, 2012 ), and executive attention (Kubesh et al, 2009 ).…”

Participation in structured physical activity is assumed to have a positive effect on cognitive and academic performance. A single bout of moderate to vigorous exercise has been found to have a small acute positive effect on the cognitive performance of children and adolescents. However, the dose-response effects of exercise duration are largely unknown. Therefore, the current study examined the acute effects of moderate-to-vigorous exercise with a duration of either 10, 20, or 30 min on selective attention and working memory performance of young adolescents. One hundred and nineteen adolescents (11–14 years old) participated in a randomized, controlled crossover study. Adolescents were assigned to one of the three exercise durations, each paired with a sedentary control session of the same duration. Cognitive performance was measured before and immediately after the exercise and control condition. The Attention Network Test and n-back task were used to measure selective attention and working memory, respectively. There were no significant exercise effects on selective attention (i.e., alerting, orienting, or executive control) or working memory performance measured immediately after the exercise bouts. Furthermore, there were no differential effects of exercise duration. In sum, acute exercise bouts with a duration of 10, 20, or 30 min did not improve, but neither deteriorate cognitive performance of young adolescents compared to a sedentary control condition.

“…al. 26 evaluated the influence of different exercise intensities during PEC on IC results, their results showed the vigorous intensity was better to IC when compared with moderate intensity. Nevertheless, the authors monitored the exercise intensity across accelerometer and they suggested the use of session of rating perception effort to evaluate the intensity of PEC, in order to identify the real sensation of exertion of the subject after the exercise.…”

Aim: The aim of the study was to analyze the impact of a based-team sports physical education class on inhibitory control of elementary school children. Methods: Were selected 29 elementary school students (13 boys and 16 girls; 10.7 ± 0.7 years old; 43.2 ± 8.2 kg weight; 147 ± 5 cm height). Participants were submitted to a 50-minute sports-based physical education class performed at moderate intensity. Inhibitory control was measured before and immediately after the end of the physical education class by the Stroop Test. Results: Results indicate that the variables derived from Stroop Test performance overall reaction time were significantly reduced after the physical education class (p < 0.05). Conclusion: These results suggest that a 50-minute sports-based physical education class performed at moderate intensity elicited a significant improvement on the inhibitory control elementary school students.
