Studies have indicated that engaging in moderate to intense physical activity regularly is linked with improved cognitive capabilities in midlife.
According to findings, physical activity that falls between moderate to intense is best for working memory as well as mental processes like organization and planning. Substituting it with 6 to 7 minutes per day of sedentary behavior or low intensity exercise could potentially result in weaker cognitive performance.

Research has overwhelmingly demonstrated the health advantages of regular moderate to intense physical activity, yet few studies have looked into sleeping time as an element in daily health and wellbeing. Sleep makes up one-fourth of an entire 24-hour day.

To ascertain if moderate to intense physical activity was the best strategy for midlife cognitive performance, they adopted a compositional approach.

This study featured 8581 participants aged 46-47 from the 1970 British Cohort Study whose health was monitored throughout both childhood and adulthood.
