Cognitive-based training (for example, video games or computerized training) can help older adults stay sharp and delay the age-related brain drain. There are many other ways to exercise your brain, but did you know that physical activity such as resistance training can also help improve your memory? Research shows that your lifestyle can influence the cognitive changes that come with aging.
