Abstract

The improvement of exercise performance in sports not only involves the enhancement of physical strength, but also includes the development of psychological and cognitive functions. There is an increasing body of evidence to show that physical exercise is a powerful way to improve a number of aspects of cognition and brain function at the systemic and behavioral levels. Yet, several questions remain: What type of exercise program is optimal for improving cognitive functions? What are the real effects of certain innovative exercise protocols on the relationship between behavior and the brain? To what extent do ergogenic aids boost cognitive function? How efficient are neuromodulation techniques in relation to behavioral performance? The answers to these questions likely require multidisciplinary insights not only from physiologists and sports scientists, but also from neuroscientists and psychologists. The manuscripts published (16 research papers and one perspective article from various academic fields) in this Special Issue Book “Exercise: A Gate That Primes the Brain to Perform” bring together current knowledge and novel directions in human exercise-cognition research dealing with performance. This book showcases the various relationships between cognitive function, brain activity, and behavioral performance with applications in sports and exercise science.

Abstract

There is no doubt that if the field of exercise physiology is to make further advancements, the various specialized areas must work together in solving the unique and difficult problems of understanding how exercise is initiated, maintained and regulated at many functional levels, and what causes us to quit. Exercise is perhaps the most complex of physiological functions, requiring the coordinated, integrated activation of essentially every cell, tissue and organ in the body. Such activation is known to take place at all levels - from molecular to systemic. Focusing on important issues address

Abstract

Quatrième de couverture : "Au cours des dernières années, la prise de conscience des capacités adaptatives du cerveau l'a fait passer d'une structure figée, dont le fonctionnement était considéré comme acquis précocément dans l'enfance et restait immuable, à un organe pleinement intégré au sein de réseaux fonctionnels et modelable tout au long de la vie en fonction des contraintes internes ou externes auxquelles l'individu est soumis. Ces propriétés sont regroupées sous le terme de plasticité cérébrale. L'étude de cette plasticité cérébrale a permis un bond en avant dans les connaissances sur le fonctionnement cérébral chez le sujet sain et sur la compréhension de son implication positive ou délétère en pathologie. C'est ce qu'aborde cet ouvrage en détaillant la physiologie, les techniques d'exploration et en particulier l'IRMf et la fNIRS, les techniques de modulations comme la rTMS ou tDTC mais aussi les médicaments, la thérapie cellulaire, la méditation ou l'hypnose, les effets chez l'homme sain comme le sportif ou le musicien, les changements apportés dans la prise en charge des AVC, des gliomes, des pathologies psychiatriques mais aussi dans la prise en charge de pathologies n'affectant pas directement le cerveau comme chez les patients douloureux chroniques ou les amputés"
